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

@uchebnick/unch

npm installer wrapper for the unch semantic code search CLI.

npm install -g @uchebnick/unch
unch --version
unch --help

The package downloads the matching native binary from GitHub Releases during postinstall.

Codex setup

To make unch available in Codex as both MCP tools and the unch skill, run:

unch codex install

Then restart Codex. The installer uses codex mcp add for the MCP server and writes the skill to ~/.codex/skills/unch/SKILL.md.

The npm postinstall step does not modify your Codex config automatically. This is intentional: installing a package should not silently mutate ~/.codex/config.toml.

MCP for Codex

Codex setup is explicit:

unch codex install

Then restart Codex. Codex will start the MCP server through the registered unch-mcp command and use the installed unch skill when semantic code search helps.

unch-mcp is a small launcher for unch start mcp; you normally do not need to run it by hand.

Supported targets:

  • macOS arm64, x64
  • Linux arm64, x64
  • Windows arm64, x64

Environment overrides:

  • UNCH_NPM_TAG=v0.4.1 downloads a specific release tag.
  • UNCH_BINARY_URL=https://... or UNCH_BINARY_URL=file:///... downloads or reads a custom archive.
  • UNCH_SKIP_DOWNLOAD=1 skips download for package smoke tests.
