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 🙏

Installation

You can install assist globally using npm:

npm install -g @staff0rd/assist

  • /jira - View a Jira work item
  • /journal - Append a journal entry summarising recent work, decisions, and notable observations
  • /next [id] - Signal completion and chain into the next backlog item; pass an id to run a specific item directly (falls back to the picker if the id is missing, done, won't-do, or blocked)
  • /standup - Summarise recent journal entries as a standup update

CLI Commands

  • assist activity [--since <date>] - Chart GitHub commit activity per day (defaults to last 30 days)
  • assist init - Initialize project with VS Code and verify configurations
  • assist new vite - Initialize a new Vite React TypeScript project
  • assist new cli - Initialize a new tsup CLI project
  • assist sync - Copy command files to ~/.claude/commands
  • assist commit status - Show git status and diff
  • assist commit <message> - Commit staged changes with validation
  • assist commit <message> [files...] - Stage files and create a git commit with validation
  • assist prs - List pull requests for the current repository
  • assist prs list-comments - List all comments on the current branch's pull request
  • assist prs fixed <comment-id> <sha> - Reply with commit link and resolve thread
  • assist prs wontfix <comment-id> <reason> - Reply with reason and resolve thread
  • assist prs comment <path> <line> <body> - Add a line comment to the pending review
  • assist review [sha] [--no-prompt] [--submit] [--force] [--refine] [--apply] [--verbose] - Run Claude and Codex in parallel to review the open PR for the current branch. The diff is fetched from GitHub (base SHA → head SHA via gh pr diff), so stale local base branches don't pollute the review; fails fast if no PR is open. By default, prompts before posting line-bound comments and then prompts again to submit the pending review (defaulting to no). Cached claude.md / codex.md / synthesis.md are reused when present; if any reviewer is re-run, the synthesis is invalidated. --no-prompt skips all confirmations. --submit defaults the submit prompt to yes (or auto-submits when combined with --no-prompt). --force clears all cached files and re-runs every phase. --refine skips posting and instead launches an interactive Claude session that walks through synthesis.md and edits it in place; a subsequent assist review (no flag) reuses the refined file and posts only the surviving findings. --apply skips posting and instead launches an interactive Claude session that walks through each remaining finding asking apply/skip; applied findings have their code fix made in the working tree (unstaged) and are removed from synthesis.md, while skipped findings stay so a subsequent assist review posts them. --apply cannot be combined with --refine. --verbose disables the stacked-spinner UI and falls back to per-line log output (per-tool lines, starting/done lines); non-TTY environments (CI) automatically fall back to verbose-style output. Pass a commit <sha> to review that commit's diff (sha^..sha) instead; the review files land under .assist/reviews/<shortSha>/, no GitHub lookup or posting happens, and --refine / --apply / --submit are rejected.
