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.

TailFlow

Runtime verification for coding agents.

TailFlow turns output from local development processes, Docker containers, and log files into bounded evidence an agent can use to verify a code change.

It helps an agent:

confirm that expected services actually started;
collapse repeated failures while retaining stack-trace context;
wait for rebuilds and other asynchronous outcomes without polling; and
compare new runtime output against a cursor captured before its edit.

npm install -g tailflow
tailflow init
tailflow-daemon
claude mcp add tailflow -- tailflow-mcp

The package installs four interfaces over those capabilities:

tailflow-daemon collects logs and serves the agent API and dashboard;
tailflow-mcp connects an MCP client to the daemon;
tailflow-logs queries the daemon from a shell or script; and
tailflow opens the interactive terminal UI.

Read the quick start and project overview or browse the feature guide and complete documentation.

TailFlow is a local runtime-verification layer. It is not a hosted log platform or a replacement for production observability.
