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 🙏

MCP server that helps AI understand coding missions - know what you're building before you build it

Readme

Mission Protocol MCP Server

An MCP server that helps AI understand coding missions. Know what you're building before you build it.

What it does

Mission Protocol analyzes coding requests to understand:

  • What type of mission you're asking for (npm package, API integration, web app, etc.)
  • How complex it is (simple, moderate, complex)
  • How long it will take (30 minutes to several days)
  • What deliverables to expect
  • A step-by-step execution plan

Installation

For Claude Desktop

  1. Install the server globally:
npm install -g @kneelinghorse/mission-protocol-mcp
  1. Add to your Claude Desktop config:

macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mission-protocol": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@kneelinghorse/mission-protocol-mcp"]
    }
  }
}
  1. Restart Claude Desktop

For VS Code

Coming soon - VS Code extension support

Usage

Once installed, you can ask Claude things like:

  • "Analyze this request: Build an npm package for image processing"
  • "What type of mission is 'integrate with the Stripe API'?"
  • "Generate a plan for creating a CLI tool"

Claude will use the Mission Protocol to understand what you're trying to build and provide guidance on complexity, time estimates, and execution strategy.

Mission Types

Mission Protocol recognizes 10 types of coding missions:

  • npm_package - Publishing libraries and modules
  • api_integration - Connecting to external services
  • cli_tool - Command-line applications
  • web_app - Full web applications
  • data_pipeline - Data processing and ETL
  • ui_component - Reusable UI components
  • database_schema - Database design and migrations
  • deployment_config - CI/CD and infrastructure
  • test_suite - Testing frameworks and coverage
  • documentation - Technical documentation and guides

How it works

The protocol uses semantic pattern matching to analyze your request:

  1. Matches keywords and signals in your request
  2. Calculates confidence scores
  3. Identifies the most likely mission type
  4. Provides complexity and time estimates
  5. Generates a contextual execution plan

Example

Request: "I need to build an npm package for semantic analysis"

Response:

Mission Type: NPM PACKAGE
Confidence: 85%
Complexity: moderate
Estimated Time: 2-4 hours

Deliverables:
- package.json
- dist/
- README.md
- npm publish

Execution Strategy:
1. Initialize package.json with proper metadata
2. Set up TypeScript configuration
3. Create source files with exports
4. Add build pipeline
5. Write comprehensive README
6. Test locally with npm link
7. Publish to npm
