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 🙏

gsd-core

v0.0.1

Published

Defensive placeholder — the real package is @opengsd/gsd-core. Held to prevent name-squatting and transferable to the OpenGSD maintainers on request.

Readme

gsd-core — defensive placeholder

This is not the GSD tool. The real package is @opengsd/gsd-core (source: https://github.com/open-gsd/gsd-core).

To install GSD:

npx -y --package=@opengsd/gsd-core@latest -- gsd-core --claude --global

Why this package exists

The unscoped name gsd-core was unregistered on npm while the scoped package @opengsd/gsd-core was in active use, and at least one documented command plus an auto-generated editor permission rule referenced the bare name. Left unclaimed, anyone could have registered gsd-core and had their code fetched and run in place of the real tool.

This package was published purely to close that window. It:

  • contains no install scripts of any kind (no preinstall, postinstall, prepare)
  • has no dependencies
  • ships one executable that prints this explanation and exits non-zero

It does nothing, collects nothing, and phones nowhere.

Transfer

This name belongs to the OpenGSD maintainers whenever they want it. It is held in custody, not claimed. Maintainers: open an issue on https://github.com/open-gsd/gsd-core or contact the npm owner of this package, and ownership will be transferred immediately via npm owner add.
