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 🙏

CLI tool for automating AI agent context setup in projects

AI Factory

Stop configuring. Start building.

You want to build with AI, but setting up the right context, prompts, and workflows takes time. AI Factory handles all of that so you can focus on what matters — shipping quality code.

One command. Full AI-powered development environment.

ai-factory init

Why AI Factory?

  • Zero configuration — installs relevant skills, configures integrations
  • Best practices built-in — logging, commits, code review, all following industry standards
  • Spec-driven development — AI follows plans, not random exploration. Predictable, resumable, reviewable
  • Community skills — leverage skills.sh ecosystem or generate custom skills
  • Stack-agnostic — works with any language, framework, or platform
  • Multi-agent support — Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, Roo Code, Kilo Code, Antigravity, OpenCode, Warp, Zencoder, Codex CLI, Codex app, GitHub Copilot, Gemini CLI, Junie, Qwen Code, or any agent

Installation

Using npm

npm install -g ai-factory

Using mise

mise use -g npm:ai-factory

Quick Start

# In your project directory (interactive wizard)
ai-factory init

# Or non-interactive with flags
ai-factory init --agents claude,codex --mcp playwright,github

This will:

  • Ask which AI agent you use (or use --agents flag)
  • Install relevant skills (or use --skills flag)
  • Configure MCP servers (or use --mcp flag)

Then open your AI agent and start working:

/aif

Codex CLI and Codex app use $aif style invocations after installation.

Need CLI flags, update/upgrade details, or extension commands? See Getting Started. Need slash-command reference? See Core Skills.

Example Workflow

# Explore options and requirements before planning (optional)
/aif-explore Add user authentication with OAuth

# Need a strictly verified answer before changing anything?
/aif-grounded Does this repo already support OAuth providers?

# Plan a feature — creates branch, analyzes codebase, builds step-by-step plan
/aif-plan Add user authentication with OAuth

# Optionally refine the plan with deeper analysis
/aif-improve

# Execute the plan — implements tasks one by one, commits at checkpoints
/aif-implement

# Create a knowledge reference from docs AI doesn't know about
/aif-reference https://docs.example.com/api-reference --name example-api

# Fix a bug — AI learns from every fix and gets smarter over time
/aif-fix TypeError: Cannot read property 'name' of undefined

# Set up CI pipeline — GitHub Actions or GitLab CI with linting, SA, tests
/aif-ci github

# Generate project documentation — README + docs/ with topics
/aif-docs
