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 🙏

@gonk/comms

Cross-agent communication: the host-neutral core for one persona instance to reach another over a durable inbox.

What it is / why it exists. A scoped messaging layer — addressing (ConnectAddress = host·persona·scope), a presence directory (who's live, on what), an envelope (kind/intent/visibility), and a delivery policy (decideDelivery) over the durable comms message inbox. It exists because a persistent agent that can't be reached is just a daemon: agreements and asks between agents decay when the only path is a human relay. Built on @gonk/channel (addressing), @gonk/store (the no-drop inbox), and @gonk/temporal (liveness/idle) — it does not invent its own store.

Who uses it / how it's surfaced. Consumed by host plugins (@gonk/pi-comms today; a Claude materialization via the shared spec). The agent reaches it through four tools — message_send / message_inbox / message_ack / presence_list — made visible by the introspect coordinator and taught by the messaging skill (when to DM a peer vs dispatch a worker vs store a fact). Waiting messages surface at turn start.

How often. The presence heartbeat writes once per turn; sends/inbox-reads are on demand when an agent actually messages a peer or checks its inbox.

Slice 1 scope. Persona→persona DM, defer-only (the message lands in the recipient's inbox and surfaces next turn; no wake-on-message yet). Deferred: wake-on-message, channels/broadcast, group DM.
