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 🙏

Readme

pi-talk

Text-to-speech extension for Pi coding agent. Gives Pi a voice using <voice> tags.

pi-talk demo

Features

  • Local TTS - No cloud APIs, runs entirely on your Mac
  • Multiple voices - 7 different voice options
  • Central playback - Pi sends speech jobs to Loqui's local broker queue
  • Configurable - Toggle verbosity, mute, change voices

Requirements

Loqui.app must be installed and running (provides the TTS server + local broker queue).

brew install swairshah/tap/loqui

Then launch Loqui from Applications - it runs in the menubar.

Installation

pi install npm:@swairshah/pi-talk

Usage

Once installed, Pi will automatically speak <voice> tagged content in its responses.

Commands

| Command | Description | |---------|-------------| | /tts | Toggle TTS on/off | | /tts-mute | Mute audio (keeps voice tags in responses) | | /tts-voice <name> | Change voice (alba, marius, javert, fantine, cosette, eponine, azelma) | | /tts-style | Toggle between succinct and verbose voice prompts | | /tts-say <text> | Speak arbitrary text | | /tts-stop | Stop current speech | | /tts-status | Show current status |

Global Shortcut

Press Cmd+. to stop speech at any time (requires Loqui.app running).

How it works

  1. The extension injects a system prompt that teaches Pi to use <voice> tags
  2. When Pi responds, the extension extracts <voice> content
  3. The extension sends speech jobs to Loqui's local broker (127.0.0.1:18081), including sourceApp, sessionId, and pid
  4. Loqui schedules per-session queues and plays audio centrally (no cloud, no API keys)
