Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Ghostly CLI — zero-config installer and local runner

Readme

@ghostly-io/cli

Write your end-to-end tests in one sentence. Ghostly runs them, self-heals broken selectors, and tells you the truth.

A local-first, AI-assisted E2E testing engine built on Playwright. This package (@ghostly-io/cli) is how you install, configure, and run Ghostly on your machine.

Ghostly running an assisted test

Install

npm install -g @ghostly-io/cli

Quick start

ghostly install   # credentials, Chromium, and your editor's MCP server(s)
ghostly up        # -> http://localhost:4000

Then open http://localhost:4000, log in with the credentials printed by ghostly up, go to Settings → Assisted mode to connect your AI (BYOK), click New run, describe what to test, and watch it run live.

Three ways to drive it

  • Assisted — describe the outcome in plain English; Ghostly plans and runs it. No code.
  • Advanced — hand-write the exact steps as JSON when you want precise, deterministic control.
  • MCP — call Ghostly's tools straight from your IDE (Cursor, Claude).

Bring your own model (BYOK). Any OpenAI-compatible endpoint or a local CLI. Your keys and source stay on your machine.

From your IDE (MCP)

ghostly install detects the MCP-capable editors on your machine and lets you pick which to set up — Cursor, Claude Desktop, and Claude Code are supported. For each, it registers Ghostly's MCP server and installs a Ghostly "expert" skill so the agent knows how to design solid tests. Manage them anytime:

ghostly mcp list          # which editors are detected and configured
ghostly mcp add cursor    # (re)configure one editor

Commands

| Command | What it does | | --- | --- | | ghostly install | Sets up credentials, Chromium, and the MCP server + skill for your chosen editors. | | ghostly up | Prepares the local database and starts the engine and dashboard on http://localhost:4000. | | ghostly config | Optional — configure the AI provider from the CLI instead of the dashboard (--clear to remove). | | ghostly mcp | List detected editors and add or (re)configure Ghostly's MCP server in them. | | ghostly update | Update the CLI to the latest version. | | ghostly keygen | Regenerate the local Ghostly API key. |

Run ghostly --help (or the ghost alias) for the full list.

Requirements

  • Node.js ≥ 20
  • Chromium — installed automatically by ghostly install (via Playwright).
  • An AI provider for assisted mode — any OpenAI-compatible endpoint or a local CLI. (Advanced/JSON mode works without one.)
  • An MCP-capable editor (Cursor, Claude) is optional — only needed for MCP mode.

Troubleshooting

  • ERR_MODULE_NOT_FOUND (runner or other modules) — usually a stale or incomplete install. Reinstall the latest: npm i -g @ghostly-io/cli@latest.
  • @prisma/client did not initialize yet — the Prisma client wasn't generated in the global install. Update to the latest CLI and run ghostly up again.
  • EEXIST … ghost.cmd / ghostly not recognized — a global wrapper conflict. Uninstall, clean the wrappers in %APPDATA%/npm, and reinstall.
