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 🙏

Pi extension: /remote command for sharing sessions via web UI.

Readme

@monopi/web-remote

Share your pi session through a browser — for code reviews, pair programming, or demos.

Why use this?

Sometimes you want someone else to see what pi is doing in real time:

  • Code review: Share your session so a colleague can watch pi work through your code
  • Pair programming: Let someone follow along as you prompt pi through a design session
  • Demos: Show stakeholders your AI-assisted workflow without them installing anything

/remote spins up a web server that streams your current pi session to any browser.

Installation

pi install npm:@monopi/web-remote

This is installed by default with npx @monopi/monopi.

Usage

/remote              # Start sharing. Shows the URL to share.
/remote status       # Check if sharing is active and how many are connected
/remote stop         # Stop sharing the session

Typical flow

  1. Type /remote in pi
  2. Pi starts a web server and shows a URL like http://localhost:3000 or a tunnel URL
  3. Share that URL with whoever needs to see
  4. They open it in a browser and see your pi session updating in real time
  5. When done, type /remote stop
You: /remote

monopi: Remote session active at http://localhost:3000
       Share this URL with collaborators.
       Type /remote stop to end sharing.

You: /remote stop
monopi: Remote session stopped.

What the web UI shows

The browser view mirrors your pi session:

  • Current conversation history
  • Tool calls and results as they happen
  • Live status updates
  • Tokens and cost information

Security

  • By default the server binds to localhost only
  • For remote access, pair with @monopi/remote-tailscale for HTTPS over Tailscale tunnels
  • No data is stored on disk — the session streams live

Related packages

| Package | Purpose | | -------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------- | | @monopi/web-server | The embeddable HTTP + WebSocket server this extension uses | | @monopi/web-client | TypeScript client library for building custom remote UIs | | @monopi/remote-tailscale | Secure remote sharing via Tailscale HTTPS with QR codes |

Notes

  • This package ships raw TypeScript — pi loads it directly, no build step needed
  • Only one remote session can be active at a time
  • Works with @monopi/remote-tailscale for accessing over the internet with TLS
