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 🙏

Readme

terminal-commander

npm root wrapper for Terminal Commander, a local MCP control plane for coding agents.

Install

npm install -g terminal-commander@latest

Install is passive: no lifecycle bootstrap, no automatic MCP config writes, no daemon start, no WSL install, and no hidden-window subprocess request.

Configure harnesses explicitly:

terminal-commander setup harness

Or target one provider:

terminal-commander setup harness --provider cursor
terminal-commander setup harness --provider codex-cli
terminal-commander setup harness --provider claude-code
terminal-commander setup harness --provider claude-desktop

Update

terminal-commander update

This runs npm install -g terminal-commander@latest.

On Windows, update first runs a native scoped lock preflight. It terminates only Terminal Commander binaries currently running from the installed npm platform package bin directory. It does not invoke cmd.exe, PowerShell, taskkill, or downloaded scripts.

Commands

| Binary | Role | | --- | --- | | terminal-commander | Admin CLI: version, update, setup, doctor, native diagnostics | | terminal-commander-mcp | MCP stdio adapter launched by the LLM harness | | terminal-commanderd | Local daemon for IPC, probes, policy, buckets, and audit |

LLM Trust Contract

system_discover is the source of truth for the live MCP tool catalogue. It is callable even when the daemon is down and reports daemon_available plus per-tool requires_daemon, available, and unavailable_reason fields. Tools that require the daemon report daemon_unavailable instead of forcing clients to infer reachability from raw pipe or socket errors.

The admin CLI also refuses fake offline success. Daemon-backed inspection commands that are not wired to live daemon IPC exit 69 with an unavailable message instead of returning empty or not-found success.

Platform Packages

Optional platform dependencies:

  • @terminal-commander/linux-x64
  • @terminal-commander/linux-arm64
  • @terminal-commander/windows-x64
  • @terminal-commander/mac-x64
  • @terminal-commander/mac-arm64

Windows uses the native @terminal-commander/windows-x64 package by default. The legacy Windows-to-WSL bridge is opt-in with TC_USE_LEGACY_WSL_BRIDGE=1.
