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 🙏

useful-ai

One command to connect your AI agents to 140+ tools.

npx useful-ai

Detects which AI agent platforms you have in your project, then installs Useful AI skill files and MCP configs so your agents can use the full tool library.

  useful ai

  > [x] Skill file (recommended)
    [ ] MCP server

  Install to which platforms?
  > [x] Claude Code
    [x] Cursor
    [x] VS Code

  ✓ Installed skill to .claude/skills/useful-ai/SKILL.md

Options

npx useful-ai              # Scans home directory, installs to detected platforms
npx useful-ai --local      # Install in current project directory instead
npx useful-ai --skill      # Skill file only, skip prompts
npx useful-ai --mcp        # MCP config only, skip prompts
npx useful-ai -y           # Accept all defaults (skill file, all platforms)

What gets installed

Skill file (recommended): A markdown file that teaches your agent how to call 140+ tools via the Useful AI dispatch API. Dropped into your platform's skills directory.

MCP server: Adds the Useful AI MCP endpoint to your platform's config. Your agent gets useful and suggest as native tools.

Both are free, no auth required.
