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 🙏

codex-app-linux-publisher

v0.0.0

Published

Build and publish Linux Codex desktop app repacks.

Readme

codex-app-linux

Build/publish repo for the Linux Codex desktop release flow.

Current shape:

  • tracks upstream desktop appcast feeds for prod and beta
  • rebuilds the upstream desktop app for Linux x64
  • emits linux-unpacked and AppImage
  • publishes a thin npm launcher package
  • expects users to already have codex installed

Commands

npm test
npm run release:prod
npm run release:beta

Manual local build against the golden beta asset:

node scripts/release-channel.mjs \
  --channel beta \
  --archive "__golden__/Codex (Beta)-darwin-arm64-26.311.30926.zip"

Distribution Model

GitHub Releases:

  • source of truth for Linux desktop artifacts
  • uploads AppImage
  • uploads a tarball of linux-unpacked

npm:

  • publishes codex-app-linux
  • acts as a thin launcher
  • downloads the matching AppImage from GitHub Releases on first run

Launcher behavior:

  • uses existing CODEX_CLI_PATH if set
  • otherwise sets CODEX_CLI_PATH from which codex
  • errors if neither is available
  • sets APPIMAGE_EXTRACT_AND_RUN=1 by default for broader compatibility
  • AppImage and linux-unpacked binaries also perform the same codex lookup at launch

GitHub Actions

Workflow: .github/workflows/release.yml

  • scheduled twice daily
  • checks both upstream channels
  • builds linux-unpacked and AppImage
  • creates/releases tagged GitHub assets
  • publishes latest for prod, beta for beta

Nix

This repo also includes a flake.nix with:

  • devShells.default for local release work
  • apps.release-prod for nix run .#release-prod
  • apps.release-beta for nix run .#release-beta
