BackAnt CLI
Let your AI agent create clean, easy to maintain flask backends
BackAnt CLI is an AI-native backend scaffolding tool designed to generate production-ready Flask APIs from a JSON specification or a small set of CLI commands. Its main goal is to reduce the repetitive work involved in setting up layered backend projects by generating key application components automatically rather than forcing developers to assemble them by hand. The tool creates a structured backend architecture that includes routes, services, repositories, models, startup files, Docker Compose configurations, and CI/CD workflows, which makes it especially useful for teams that want consistency across projects. It can scaffold an entire API or extend an existing project by generating a single route or sub-route, so it supports both greenfield development and iterative expansion. BackAnt CLI is also designed to work with coding agents through an MCP server, which allows compatible AI development tools to generate and modify backend code directly from chat-driven workflows. -

Diagnose RKN/TSPU internet blocks layer by layer (DNS, TCP, TLS, HTTP)
RKN Block Checker is a small Python CLI for diagnosing whether the current network connection is affected by Russian RKN or TSPU blocking. It tests blocking behavior layer by layer instead of only reporting that a site is unreachable. The tool can help distinguish DNS poisoning, TCP reset behavior, TLS DPI based on SNI, and ISP stub pages. This makes it useful for developers, system administrators, network researchers, and censorship-measurement workflows. It is designed as a console utility with straightforward installation and optional proxy support. Its main value is giving users a structured way to understand what kind of network interference is occurring rather than relying on vague connectivity symptoms. -

aws-cli
Universal Command Line Interface for Amazon Web Services
The AWS CLI is the universal command-line interface for managing AWS services, automating tasks, and scripting cloud workflows. It exposes nearly every public API from EC2 and S3 to IAM, Lambda, and beyond, providing parity with the service SDKs in a tool you can run anywhere. Profiles, regions, single-sign-on, and credential helpers make it straightforward to switch contexts securely across accounts and environments. Its output controls and JMESPath querying let you slice, filter, and transform JSON responses directly in the shell, which is essential for automation. Waiters, paginators, and retries handle long-running or large list operations cleanly so scripts are resilient. The CLI’s stability and extensive documentation make it a cornerstone for CI/CD, incident response, and day-to-day operations. -

dirsearch
Web path scanner
An advanced command-line tool designed to brute force directories and files in webservers, AKA web path scanner. Wordlist is a text file, each line is a path. About extensions, unlike other tools, dirsearch only replaces the %EXT% keyword with extensions from -e flag. For wordlists without %EXT% (like SecLists), -f | --force-extensions switch is required to append extensions to every word in wordlist, as well as the /. To use multiple wordlists, you can separate your wordlists with commas. Example: wordlist1.txt,wordlist2.txt. Default values for dirsearch flags can be edited in the configuration file: default.conf. The thread number (-t | --threads) reflects the number of separated brute force processes. And so the bigger the thread number is, the faster dirsearch runs. By default, the number of threads is 30, but you can increase it if you want to speed up the progress. -

Kaggle CLI
The official CLI to interact with Kaggle
Kaggle CLI is Kaggle’s official command-line interface for interacting with the Kaggle platform from a terminal. It lets users authenticate, search resources, download files, submit competition entries, manage datasets, work with models, run notebooks, and read discussion content without relying only on the web interface. The tool is useful for data scientists who want to automate Kaggle workflows inside scripts, CI jobs, notebooks, or reproducible local environments. It supports both traditional API-token authentication and an OAuth login flow, which makes it more flexible for different usage patterns. kaggle-cli is especially practical when working with large datasets or repeated competition submissions that would be slow to handle manually. Its main value is turning Kaggle’s web-based data science platform into a scriptable developer workflow. -

Manticore
Symbolic execution tool
Manticore helps us quickly take advantage of symbolic execution, taint analysis, and instrumentation to analyze binaries. Parts of Manticore underpinned our symbolic execution capabilities in the Cyber Grand Challenge. As an open-source tool, we hope that others can take advantage of these capabilities in their own projects. We prioritized simplicity and usability while building Manticore. We used minimal external dependencies and our API should look familiar to anyone with exploitation or reversing background. If you have never used such a tool before, give Manticore a try. Manticore comes with an easy-to-use command line tool that quickly generates new program “test cases” (or sample inputs) with symbolic execution. Each test case results in a unique outcome when running the program, like a normal process exit or crash (e.g., invalid program counter, invalid memory read/write). -

DR14 T.meter
Compute the DR14 of a given audio file according to the procedure desc
Introduction to DR14 T.meter DR14 T.meter is a free and opens source command line tool for computing the Dynamic Range of your music according to the procedure used in the off-line meter released by the Pleasurize Music Foundation. This tool is very useful to measure how is loud your music and for understanding that a good quality album always has also a good dynamic, and it's also useful for understanding the effects of the so called loudness war. Dr14 t.meter is released under the terms of the GNU GPLv3 license and is intended for the Linux users that can not use the Windows application released by the Pleasurize Music Foundation or the plugin for Foobar2000. I've largely tested this application and it has always returned results identical to those of the official off-line meter. -
