Repos
Open-source repos worth knowing, by the problem they take on.
Dev Tools & CLI
DSH TUI Plugin
Interactive terminal UI plugin for DeepSeek Harness with whale header, live status, streaming thinking, double-Esc rewind, context progress bar, and TPS gauge. It is a pure plugin requiring no core changes and installs via npm.
Dashi Taskboard
Local-first issue board that runs in the browser and can be embedded in Codex via a CDP launcher or injection script; one HTTP API powers the React UI and taskctl CLI. It supports Codex and DeepSeek Harness.
Jev Align
Experimental CLI from Sutro for building calibrated AI Functions with TypeSafe's Jev. It finds uncertain examples, asks you to label them, and uses GEPA to improve the function, then lets you share portable functions through ai-functions.dev.
Gooey Pi
Desktop workspace that gives Pi, OMP, and Prime Agent the same cross-platform interface on macOS, Linux, and Windows, while leaving each harness's own models, logins, and saved sessions in charge.
DeepSeek Balance Widget
Bottom-right widget for DeepSeek Harness web UI showing API balance, today's usage, and per-conversation cost with customizable whale bubble content. It installs via dsh plugin without a session token and also has a For-Codex branch.
Tetiva API Client
Tetiva is a local-first desktop API client for HTTP, gRPC, GraphQL, and WebSocket, storing data in SQLite with no account or telemetry; optional self-hosted sync makes it a Postman alternative.
Unvibe Code Tracer
UnvibeCode reverse-engineers complex codebases into business workflows, connected code, edge cases, and evidence-backed risks. It is a Python 3.11+ tool for developers and analysts tracing how business logic is implemented across a repository.
Sshbool Workspace
SSHBool is a native desktop workspace unifying SSH, SFTP, terminal, Docker, database, and remote server management through one multiplexed SSH connection. It targets users who want a keyboard-first, all-in-one remote infrastructure client.
UniSSH Client
UniSSH is a cross-platform SSH client with end-to-end-encrypted vaults that are local-first and optionally sync through a self-hosted server. It lets users manage keys and hosts without a cloud account, keeping data unreadable by the server.
LLM Token Optimizer
antiburn is a local desktop app that checks AI coding sessions for token burn causes like deep sessions, excessive model use, broken caching, and unused tools. It supports Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Copilot, and others.
Markdown Workflow Runner
upmd converts Markdown code blocks into dependency-aware runnable tasks and workflows, executed in a real pseudo-terminal from TUI, CLI, or CI. Output stays beside source, and shell environment changes carry to later tasks.
Privacy Preflight Tool
ShareLint is a local, fail-closed privacy preflight that scans files, folders, and nested archives for secrets, PII, metadata, speaker notes, and hidden content before sharing, without uploading them. It is practical for preventing accidental data leaks.
Markdown Template Language
Knap is a simple template language that converts data into Markdown using variables, filters, and logic, and powers Obsidian Web Clipper and Importer. It executes templates without eval or arbitrary JavaScript.
TUI Connection Manager
ctty is a lightweight Go TUI connection manager handling SSH, serial, SFTP, Telnet, and FTP in one ~5MB binary. It offers GUI-like convenience without Electron overhead.
Binary Analysis Tool
knife is a Rust reverse-engineering toolkit that parses, triages, disassembles PE/ELF/Mach-O binaries and recovers functions/CFG, scans crypto constants and YARA. It merges five tools into one static binary and pinpoints dangerous call sites like memcpy length from subtraction.
TUI Music Player
Mousiki is a customizable terminal music player for local playback and online streaming, featuring spectrum visualizers, synced lyrics, and keyboard-driven controls. It is fast, lightweight, and Apache-2.0 licensed.
MobaRust Terminal
A free, open-source MobaXterm alternative built with Rust and Tauri, offering SSH, SFTP, SCP, terminals, tunnels, serial, Telnet, diagnostics, and remote administration. It is a local-first desktop client for developers, DevOps, sysadmins, and homelab users.
macOS System Data
A free macOS menu bar app that shows what is inside System Data and lets you delete items individually, explaining categories and showing commands before they run. Useful for developers with large System Data from simulators, caches, and logs.
Remote Command Monitor
A local-first command monitor that lets you prefix commands with hao and follow their live output and finish notifications from your phone. Useful for server admins and anyone running long tasks like model training.
Learn PyTorch
An educational project for learning PyTorch by building your own implementation, inspired by Harvard's TinyTorch and structured as 20 progressive modules. It is a learning resource rather than a production tool.
Local Ops Console
A macOS local web console for starting and monitoring local services and batch tasks, with a zero-dependency Python backend and no-build frontend bound to loopback. It is single-user and currently in alpha, not for remote or multi-user use.
Linux App Uninstaller
A universal Linux application uninstaller and deep-clean residual purger that removes orphaned user-space directories like ~/.config, ~/.cache, ~/.local/share, and Flatpak app folders after package removal. It is a TUI utility for cleaning leftover files.
Postgres Terminal
An interactive terminal UI for monitoring multiple Postgres databases in one place, described as htop for Postgres and powered by pgbot's read-only diagnostics. Aimed at database developers who want a modern, focused overview.
