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 🙏

@xaccefy/pi-lookup

v0.2.9

Published

Web search, page fetch, library docs (Context7), and GitHub repo Q&A (DeepWiki) for Pi Agent

Readme

pi-lookup

Web search, page fetch, library docs (Context7), and GitHub repo Q&A (DeepWiki) for Pi Agent. No API keys for search/fetch/docs (DeepWiki is public-repo only).

Install

pi install npm:@xaccefy/pi-lookup

Tools

web_search

Queries engines via the local open-websearch daemon (no API key).

  • query (required)
  • limit (optional, default 10)
  • engines (optional, e.g. duckduckgo, brave, bing)

web_fetch

Fetches a URL as clean text/markdown (GitHub READMEs use a dedicated path).

  • url (required, http/https)

SPA / JS-rendered pages: if the daemon only returns a thin HTML shell, web_fetch re-renders with system Chromium (--headless --dump-dom) when available and swaps in the richer text.

| Variable | Purpose | |----------|---------| | PI_CHROMIUM_PATH | Absolute path to chromium/chrome binary | | PI_WEBSEARCH_PORT | Daemon port (default 3210) |

Fallback binaries checked: /usr/bin/chromium, /usr/sbin/chromium, Chrome stable paths, etc. If Chromium is missing, static extraction is returned as-is.

context7

Up-to-date library docs + examples.

  • libraryName (required, e.g. react)
  • topic (optional, e.g. hooks)
  • maxTokens (optional, default 10000)

deepwiki

Natural-language Q&A over a public GitHub repo.

  • repo (required, owner/name)
  • question (required)

Lifecycle

  • session_start: best-effort warm-up of the open-websearch daemon (non-blocking).
  • session_shutdown: stops the daemon process started by this extension.

bun test packages/pi-lookup
bun run typecheck
