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

Multi-Agent Development Workflow

This repository implements a multi-agent development workflow with tools for reading/writing files, managing stories and features, running tests, and exposing these as chat-callable tools.

  • Source code lives under src/
  • Stories and artifacts live under .stories/
  • Documentation lives under docs/

See docs/FILE_ORGANISATION.md for a complete overview of the project structure and tool composition. For architecture and coding practices, see docs/CODE_STANDARD.md.

Getting Started

  • Install dependencies: npm install
  • Build: npm run build
  • Test: npm test

Testing

High-quality, comprehensive tests are vital to this project. Aim for close to 100% coverage where practical. Tests should validate inputs/outputs, cover edge cases, and never force meaningless code changes just to pass.

  • See docs/TESTING.md for full testing guidance, patterns, and standards.
  • Refer to docs/CODE_STANDARD.md for coding standards that extend to test code as well.

Contributing

  • Review docs/CODE_STANDARD.md before contributing; keep your changes consistent with the established architecture and standards.
  • Follow the established patterns for adding new toolsets (create a factory under src/tools, export functions, and compose them in src/tools/tools.ts).
  • If exposing a tool to chat, add a descriptor to src/tools/chatTools.ts and update the dispatcher. Ensure data entering/leaving endpoints is validated and add tests accordingly.
