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 🙏

star-watch 🌟👀

监控你 GitHub star 过的仓库的归档状态。

问题： 你 star 了几百个仓库。当某个仓库被归档（比如 Algolia 的 hn-search），你往往要用到的时候才会发现。

方案： 一个简单的 CLI 工具，检查你 star 过的仓库，在有仓库被归档时提醒你。

安装

npm install -g @indiekitai/star-watch
# 或
npx @indiekitai/star-watch

用法

# 检查你 star 过的仓库（需要 GITHUB_TOKEN）
star-watch check

# 只检查前 N 个 star 的仓库
star-watch check --limit 50

# 输出 JSON（便于脚本 / CI 使用）
star-watch check --json

# 列出上次检查发现的已归档仓库（读取本地状态，无需 token）
star-watch list-archived

# 查看帮助
star-watch help

退出码：0 = 检查完成且无新增归档；1 = 出错（缺少 token、API 失败、未知命令）；2 = 检查完成并发现新增归档（适合在 cron / CI 中只在有变化时告警）。

配置

设置你的 GitHub token：

export GITHUB_TOKEN=your_token_here

为什么需要它？

  • Algolia 的 hn-search 刚刚被归档了（2026 年 2 月）
  • 很多好用的工具悄悄就消失了
  • Fork 存在，但你得先知道才行
  • 在为时已晚之前发现弃用

未来扩展方向

  • Discord/Slack/Telegram 通知
  • 推荐活跃的 fork
  • 同时追踪依赖仓库
  • RSS feed 输出
