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 🙏

eternal-buckets-pro

v2.1.0

Published

Optional add-on for eternal-buckets: live bidirectional dashboard server, local semantic search, real-time index daemon (eb watch), and Model Context Protocol server mode (eb mcp). Installing this alongside eternal-buckets unlocks those commands automatic

Readme

eternal-buckets-pro

Optional add-on for eternal-buckets. Install it alongside the core package and eb picks it up automatically — no config, no flags:

npm install -g eternal-buckets eternal-buckets-pro

What it adds

  • eb view switches from writing a static dashboard file to running a live, auto-refreshing dashboard server at http://localhost:3456 (bound to loopback only).
  • Pro motion layer adds a live connection badge, animated status rail, staggered card/tree reveals, tab transitions, and card sheen effects. It is injected only by the Pro server and disables nonessential motion when the operating system requests reduced motion.
  • eb query switches from plain keyword matching to local embedding-based semantic search (via @huggingface/transformers, no API key or network calls at query time — the model downloads once on first use).
  • eb watch — a real-time daemon that re-runs eb index when files in the target directory change, are added, or are deleted.
  • eb mcp — runs eb as a Model Context Protocol server (eb_query, eb_stats tools) over stdio.

Why a separate package

These four features pull in real weight — express, chokidar, the MCP SDK, and a local transformer model — that most eb usage (indexing, tagging, the static dashboard, obsidian) doesn't need. Splitting them out keeps npm install -g eternal-buckets lean by default; install this package only if you want the extra commands.

Uninstalling

npm uninstall -g eternal-buckets-pro — the base eb commands keep working, and view/query/watch/mcp fall back to (or report needing) the core behavior again.
