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 🙏

obsidian-pi-vault-mind

v0.1.0

Published

Vault Mind side panel for Obsidian — live queue, status, search, and chat for the pi-vault-mind extension.

Readme

Alpha — not yet in the Obsidian community-plugin store. Install via BRAT for now.

Vault Mind

A right-hand side panel for Obsidian that connects to the local pi-vault-mind extension.

It gives you three dockable views:

  • Vault Mind Queue — live list of pending / running / done / failed / cancelled agent dispatch jobs, with retry / cancel buttons.
  • Vault Mind Status — pi running state, watcher toggle, embedding provider/model, and a search box.
  • Vault Mind Chat — a chat surface that talks to pi directly via the existing RPC mode.

Requirements

  • Obsidian 1.5.0+ desktop (Electron-based; mobile is not supported).
  • pi-vault-mind extension running in a local pi session (or headless).
  • A PVM_API_TOKEN configured in env, ~/.pi/agent/vault-mind.env, or the extension config. The plugin imports the token from the dotenv file and seals it in the OS keychain via Electron safeStorage.

Install

Manual (alpha)

  1. Download obsidian-pi-vault-mind.zip from the latest GitHub release.
  2. Extract it into your vault: <vault>/.obsidian/plugins/obsidian-pi-vault-mind/.
  3. The folder must contain main.js, styles.css, manifest.json, and versions.json.
  4. Restart Obsidian, then enable Vault Mind in Settings → Community Plugins.

BRAT

  1. Install the obsidian42-brat plugin and enable it.
  2. Open BRAT settings → Add Beta plugin with frozen version.
  3. Enter the repository URL: https://github.com/kylebrodeur/pi-vault-mind.
  4. Pick the latest release that starts with obsidian-v. BRAT will download the obsidian-pi-vault-mind.zip asset.
  5. Enable Vault Mind in Settings → Community Plugins.

Usage

Open the command palette and choose one of:

  • Vault Mind: Open Queue
  • Vault Mind: Open Status
  • Vault Mind: Open Chat

On first run, the plugin will prompt you to import the bearer token from ~/.pi/agent/vault-mind.env. It then connects to http://127.0.0.1:11435 by default (configurable in settings) and opens the setup wizard if the extension is not yet configured.

Development

# from repo root
pnpm install
pnpm --filter obsidian-pi-vault-mind dev   # watch build
pnpm --filter obsidian-pi-vault-mind build  # production build

Production build outputs packages/obsidian/main.js, which Obsidian loads from the plugin directory.
