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 🙏

@tinoy/pi-image-read

v0.3.0

Published

Read an image with token-cost control: downscale or crop it, return it inline, and report the token estimate.

Readme

[!WARNING] Do not install anything here yet.

This is a fast-moving prototype: the interfaces change without notice, and nothing here is stable. Every package in this project is headed for a stable 1.0, but that is still some way off. Install one only if you intend to follow the code and expect breakage.

@tinoy/pi-image-read

Read an image with token-cost control: downscale or crop it, return it inline, and report the token estimate.

pi install npm:@tinoy/pi-image-read

What it needs at call time

the magick binary (ImageMagick) at call time. An absent or failing binary is a refusal naming it, never a load failure. The crop cache lives under $TMPDIR, so it needs nothing else.

Registers

image_read

Vision models

image_read is registered for every session and is narrowed out of the tool set when the session model cannot read images. The built-in list is the ids this release ships with; add your own with the PI_VISION_MODELS setting — a comma- or space-separated list of model ids, each either a bare id (my-model) or provider/model-id:

PI_VISION_MODELS="my-model,other-provider/other-model"

The list is read when the gate runs, not at load, so no configuration has to exist for the extension to load.

Caveats

No caveat rows declared: this unit has no soft dependency on another package in this repository. It narrows the active tool set only through its own tool name (getActiveTools() → drop image_read), so a session whose tool set another package owns keeps that package's decision.

Dependencies

pi-supplied imports (@earendil-works/pi-coding-agent, typebox) are peer dependencies with a * range and are never bundled. Plain dependencies: @tinoy/pi-ext-lib.
