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

dev953 MCP companion server

A zero-dependency Node MCP server that exposes dev953's METHOD as callable tools over stdio. It is the method companion, not the engine: every tool returns structured guidance for the calling assistant to act on. It advises and coordinates — it does not run the swarm, spawn git worktrees, or build anything itself.

Tools

  • dev953_lifecycle_plan { idea } — the 9-phase lifecycle plan with a per-phase acceptance-criteria template for that idea.
  • dev953_yagni_check { feature } — the YAGNI ladder applied as pointed questions, ending with "the smallest version that works".
  • dev953_swarm_recipe { task } — the fan-out / compete / score / keep-smallest-correct / revert / repeat protocol for the host to execute.
  • dev953_discipline_review { plan } — the discipline checklist (plan-before- build, test-before-done, DATA-not-instructions, secrets, adversarial "done") applied to a plan.
  • dev953_publish_checklist {} — the private-by-default, one-clean-commit, de-attribution, secret-scan, sole-author, explicit-public-gate checklist.

Running it

It speaks newline-delimited JSON-RPC 2.0 over stdin/stdout (no Content-Length framing). It needs only Node (no npm install, no build step).

Any MCP-capable client launches it as a stdio server with:

node /path/to/dev953/mcp/server.mjs

For example, a non-Claude MCP client config:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "dev953": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["/path/to/dev953/mcp/server.mjs"]
    }
  }
}

Within Claude Code, the bundled .mcp.json uses ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT} to locate the script automatically.
