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 🙏

CLI tools for Kisaki extension development

Readme

@kisaki3/extension-cli

kisx command line tools for Kisaki extension development.

The CLI expects an extension project with manifest.json, src/index.ts, and tsdown.config.ts. README.md and the manifest icon are copied into package output when present.

Commands

kisx validate
kisx build
kisx output
kisx pack
kisx key generate --out .keys/author.ed25519.json
kisx registry init
kisx registry add-release artifacts/example-0.0.1.kisx \
  --manifest registry/manifest.json \
  --url https://example.com/extensions/example-0.0.1.kisx
kisx registry validate registry/manifest.json
kisx dev
  • kisx validate checks the manifest and required project files.
  • kisx build validates, runs tsdown, and verifies the built entry.
  • kisx output writes an unpacked package to out/extensions/<extension-id>. Use --watch for synchronized output; dev-output is an alias.
  • kisx pack writes a .kisx archive and prints size plus sha256.
  • kisx key generate creates an Ed25519 author signing key.
  • kisx registry init|validate|add-release|digest|sign manages static registry manifests and release artifacts.
  • kisx dev watch-builds package output and launches Kisaki with --dev-extension.

Packaging

kisx pack --out-dir artifacts
kisx pack --out-dir artifacts --no-build

To create an author signature beside the package:

kisx key generate --out .keys/author.ed25519.json
kisx pack --out-dir artifacts --sign --key .keys/author.ed25519.json --target any

The signature covers extension id, version, engines.kisaki, artifact target, size, and sha256. Artifact URLs are not signed so mirrors can change.

Registry Flow

kisx registry init --out registry/manifest.json --id example.extensions --name "Example Extensions"
kisx registry add-release artifacts/example-0.0.1.kisx \
  --manifest registry/manifest.json \
  --url https://example.com/extensions/example-0.0.1.kisx
kisx registry validate registry/manifest.json

add-release reads the .kisx manifest, copies package metadata, records artifact size and sha256, creates or updates the release, and prints the release digest. Use --signature <sig-file> to attach a signature created by kisx pack --sign or kisx registry sign.

Stable releases use plain semver versions. Preview releases use semver prerelease prefixes such as alpha, beta, rc, or nightly. Platform builds are separate artifact targets under the same release version.

For local testing only, registry validate and registry add-release accept --allow-insecure-local-urls for file: and localhost artifact URLs.
