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 🙏

Opinionated project scaffolder for pi.dev extensions with full pipeline integration

Readme

pi-create

Opinionated project scaffolder for pi.dev extensions with full pipeline integration.

Installation

pi install npm:pi-create

What It Does

pi-create scaffolds new pi.dev extension projects with pipeline tools pre-wired. It fills the gap where pi-extension-toolkit provides bare structural scaffolding only — pi-create adds pipeline integration (commit-lint, changelog, CI, release, readme, env-guard) out of the box.

Template Variants

| Variant | Description | ~LOC | |---------|-------------|------| | tool | Single-tool extension (minimal) | 150 | | command | Command-only extension (no tools) | 100 | | skill | Full skill package (tools + commands) | 300 | | full | Complete package with all pipeline tools pre-wired | 450 |

Tools

scaffold_project

Create a new pi.dev extension project from a template variant.

Parameters:

  • name (string, required) — Project name (e.g. "pi-my-tool")
  • description (string, required) — Short description
  • variant (enum: tool|command|skill|full, required) — Template variant
  • features (string[], optional) — Features to include

Example:

Use scaffold_project with name="pi-greet", description="A greeting extension", variant="tool"

scaffold_add

Add components to an existing scaffolded project.

Parameters:

  • component (enum: tool|command|skill|test|ci|readme, required) — Component type
  • name (string, required) — Name for the new component

Example:

Use scaffold_add with component="tool", name="fetch_data"

scaffold_validate

Validate a scaffolded pi.dev project.

Parameters:

  • projectPath (string, optional) — Path to project (defaults to cwd)

Example:

Use scaffold_validate to check if the project is correctly scaffolded

Pipeline Tools Pre-wired (full variant)

  • pi-commit-lint — Conventional commit enforcement
  • pi-changelog — Changelog generation
  • pi-ci — GitHub Actions workflow
  • pi-release — Release automation
  • pi-readme — README template
  • pi-env-guard — Environment validation
