arduino-cli
Arduino command line tool
Arduino CLI is an all-in-one solution that provides Boards/Library Managers, sketch builders, board detection, uploader, and many other tools needed to use any Arduino compatible board and platform from the command line or machine interfaces. In addition to being a standalone tool, Arduino CLI is the heart of all official Arduino development software (Arduino IDE, Arduino Web Editor). The script requires sh, which is always available on Linux and macOS. sh is not available by default on Windows, though it is available as part of Git for Windows (Git Bash). If you don't have sh available, use the "Download" installation option. If you would like to use the arduino-cli command from any location, install Arduino CLI to a directory already in your PATH or add the Arduino CLI installation path to your PATH environment variable. -

GeoIP
This project automatically generates GeoIP files in multiple formats
GeoIP is a community-maintained project that generates and publishes enhanced GeoIP/Geo-database and IP-location/routing data in multiple formats (e.g. V2Ray .dat, MaxMind .mmdb, and others) to support proxy, VPN, or routing tools requiring IP-to-country/region resolution. Rather than depending solely on the official GeoLite2 data, geoip augments and merges data sources (especially for certain regions) to improve coverage or tailor by use-case (e.g. proxy-specific rules, private networks, or region-based classification). The repo provides automated, periodic releases (e.g. weekly or on schedule) and also offers a CLI tool so users can regenerate or customize geo data in the format they need — for example, producing a .dat file for V2Ray / Xray-core, or a MaxMind-compatible .mmdb. -

fzf
A command-line fuzzy finder
fzf is a general-purpose command-line fuzzy finder. It's an interactive Unix filter for command-line that can be used with any list; files, command history, processes, hostnames, bookmarks, git commits, etc. fzf will launch an interactive finder, read the list from STDIN, and write the selected item to STDOUT. Without STDIN pipe, fzf will use find command to fetch the list of files excluding hidden ones. (You can override the default command with FZF_DEFAULT_COMMAND). fzf by default starts in fullscreen mode, but you can make it start below the cursor with the height option. Unless otherwise specified, fzf starts in "extended-search mode" where you can type in multiple search terms delimited by spaces. Fuzzy completion for files and directories can be triggered if the word before the cursor ends with the trigger sequence, which is by default **. Fuzzy completion for PIDs is provided for the kill command. In this case, there is no trigger sequence. -

Capslock
Tool to remap Caps Lock key behavior on Windows systems
Capslock is a command-line tool for analyzing the capabilities of Go packages to reveal what privileged operations their code and dependencies can perform. Rather than detecting vulnerabilities, Capslock focuses on identifying capabilities — permissions implied by calls to sensitive or privileged standard library functions, such as file system access, networking, or process control. By following transitive call graphs, it classifies which security-sensitive operations each package can reach, giving developers visibility into what their dependencies are capable of doing. This helps apply the Principle of Least Privilege to Go software, guiding audits, supply chain reviews, and trust assessments. Capslock aims to make security posture analysis more proactive by surfacing capability-based risk signals before malicious or overly powerful code is introduced into production. -

Dbmate
A lightweight, framework-agnostic database migration tool
Dbmate is a database migration tool, to keep your database schema in sync across multiple developers and your production servers. It is a standalone command line tool, which can be used with Go, Node.js, Python, Ruby, PHP, or any other language or framework you are using to write database-backed applications. This is especially helpful if you are writing many services in different languages, and want to maintain some sanity with consistent development tools. Supports MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQLite, and ClickHouse. Uses plain SQL for writing schema migrations. Migrations are timestamp-versioned, to avoid version number conflicts with multiple developers. Migrations are run atomically inside a transaction. Supports creating and dropping databases (handy in development/test). Supports saving a schema.sql file to easily diff schema changes in git. Database connection URL is defined using an environment variable (DATABASE_URL by default), or specified on the command line. -

Pluto
A cli tool to help discover deprecated apiVersions in Kubernetes
Kubernetes sometimes deprecates API versions. Most notably, a large number of deprecations happened in the 1.16 release. This is fine, and it's a fairly easy thing to deal with. However, it can be difficult to find all the places where you might have used a version that will be deprecated in your next upgrade. You might think, "I'll just ask the api-server to tell me!", but this is fraught with danger. If you ask the API-server to give you deployments.v1.apps, and the deployment was deployed as deployments.v1beta1.extensions, the API-server will quite happily convert the API version and return a manifest with apps/v1. This is fairly well outlined in the discussion of this issue. -

eksctl
The official CLI for Amazon EKS
eksctl is a simple CLI tool for creating clusters on EKS - Amazon's newly managed Kubernetes service for EC2. It is written in Go, and uses CloudFormation. eksctl is available to install from official releases as described below. We recommend that you install eksctl from only the official GitHub releases. You may opt to use a third-party installer, but please be advised that AWS does not maintain nor support these methods of installation. Use them at your own discretion. You will need to have AWS API credentials configured. What works for AWS CLI or any other tools (kops, Terraform, etc.) should be sufficient. You can use ~/.aws/credentials file or environment variables. -

wacli
WhatsApp CLI
wacli is a command-line interface for WhatsApp that focuses on syncing, searching, and sending messages through the WhatsApp Web protocol. It is designed as a third-party CLI built on top of whatsmeow, giving developers and power users a local-first way to work with WhatsApp data outside the standard app interface. The project supports interactive authentication through a QR-based login flow and then transitions into a non-interactive sync mode for ongoing message capture. It stores data locally, which enables fast offline search across previously synced conversations and makes it useful for automation, archiving, and analysis workflows. Beyond basic messaging, it also includes tools for backfilling older history on a best-effort basis, downloading media, and managing groups. The overall design emphasizes human-readable terminal output by default, with optional JSON output for scripting and machine-readable pipelines. -

Hilbish
The Moon-powered shell! A comfy and extensible shell for Lua fans
Hilbish is an extensible shell designed to be highly customizable. It is configured in Lua and provides a good range of features. It aims to be easy to use for anyone but powerful enough for those who need it. The motivation for choosing Lua was that it's simpler and better to use than an old shell script. It's fine for basic interactive shell uses, but that's the only place Hilbish has shell script; everything else is Lua and aims to be infinitely configurable. Hilbish is configured and scripted in the Lua programming language. This removes all the old, ugly things about Shell script and introduces everything good about Lua, including other languages (Fennel, Lua derivatives). Hilbish provides the user with proper menus for completions and history usage. Want to see your previous commands? Hit Ctrl-R. Hilbish offers a bunch of features to make your interactive shell experience rich. Things like syntax highlighting and hinting available via the Lua API. -

pv-migrate
CLI tool to easily migrate Kubernetes persistent volumes
pv-migrate is a CLI tool/kubectl plugin to easily migrate the contents of one Kubernetes PersistentVolumeClaim to another. On Kubernetes, if you need to rename a resource (like a Deployment) or to move it to a different namespace, you can simply create a copy of its manifest with the new namespace and/or name and apply it. However, it is not as simple with PersistentVolumeClaim resources: They are not only metadata, but they also store data in the underlying storage backend. In these cases, moving the data stored in the PVC can become a problem, making migrations more difficult. -
