  • PRTG Catches Network Issues Before They Cause Downtime Icon
    PRTG Catches Network Issues Before They Cause Downtime

    Threshold-based alerts flag problems early, so your team can act before users notice, not after.

    Reactive troubleshooting usually means hearing about a problem from frustrated users, not your monitoring tool. PRTG sets threshold-based alerts across devices, servers and applications, notifying your team by email, SMS or push the moment a metric crosses a set limit. That means catching a failing disk or overloaded server before it becomes an outage and getting time back from firefighting. Start a free trial and set your first alerts today.

    aws-encryption-sdk-cli

    aws-encryption-sdk-cli

    CLI wrapper around aws-encryption-sdk-python

    This command line tool can be used to encrypt and decrypt files and directories using the AWS Encryption SDK. If you have not already installed cryptography, you might need to install additional prerequisites as detailed in the cryptography installation guide for your operating system. Installation using a python virtual environment is recommended to avoid conflicts between system packages and user-installed packages. For the most part, the behavior of aws-encryption-cli in handling files is based on that of GNU CLIs such as cp. A qualifier to this is that when encrypting a file, if a directory is provided as the destination, rather than creating the source filename in the destination directory, a suffix is appended to the destination filename. By default the suffix is .encrypted when encrypting and .decrypted when decrypting, but a custom suffix can be provided by the caller if desired.

    code-review-graph

    code-review-graph

    Local-first code intelligence graph for MCP and CLI

    Code Review Graph is a local-first code intelligence tool that builds a persistent structural map of a software repository. It parses source files with Tree-sitter and stores functions, classes, imports, calls, inheritance, and test relationships in a SQLite graph. When code changes, blast-radius analysis identifies the callers, dependents, and tests most likely to be affected. AI coding assistants can query this focused context through MCP instead of repeatedly scanning an entire codebase. Incremental indexing reparses only changed files and their relevant dependencies, making it practical for large repositories and monorepos. The command-line installer can detect and configure numerous supported coding tools automatically. It also offers watch mode, hooks, skills, a VS Code extension, and review-oriented risk analysis.

    ggshield

    ggshield

    Detect and validate 500+ types of hardcoded secrets

    GitGuardian’s ggshield is an open-source command-line interface (CLI) tool designed to help developers and security teams detect hardcoded secrets and sensitive credentials early in the development process, either locally or in CI/CD pipelines. It scans source code, configuration files, commit history, and other artifacts to automatically detect hundreds of different secret types — such as API keys, tokens, and passwords — helping prevent accidental leaks before they reach version control or production environments. ggshield can be used interactively on a developer’s machine, integrated as a pre-commit or pre-push git hook, and run as part of automated build or merge workflows to enforce security policies consistently across teams. It works across major operating systems using Python, and offers standalone packaged binaries for environments where Python isn’t available, making it adaptable to a wide range of developer setups.

    git-delete-merged-branches

    git-delete-merged-branches

    Command-line tool to delete merged Git branches

    A convenient command-line tool helping you keep repositories clean. Supports deletion of both local and remote branches. Detects multiple forms of de-facto merges (rebase merges, squash merges (needs --effort=3), single or range cherry-picks… leveraging git cherry). Supports workflows with multiple release branches, e.g. only delete branches that have been merged to all of master, dev and staging. Quick interactive configuration. Provider agnostic: Works with GitHub, GitLab, Gitea and any other Git hosting. Takes safety seriously. Deletion is a sharp knife that requires care. While git reflog would have your back in most cases, git-delete-merged-branches takes safety seriously. git push is used with --force-with-lease so if the server and you have a different understanding of that branch, it is not deleted. There is no use of os.system or shell code to go wrong.

    glom

    glom

    Python's nested data operator

    glom is a Python library and command-line tool for accessing, restructuring, and transforming nested data. It is designed for real-world data structures where dictionaries, objects, and lists are deeply nested and difficult to handle cleanly. Developers can use path-based access to retrieve values without writing long chains of fragile indexing code. The library also provides readable error messages, which makes debugging broken paths much easier. Its declarative specification style lets users describe the output shape they want instead of manually building transformation logic. glom is especially useful for data processing, API response cleanup, configuration handling, and scripts that need reliable nested data manipulation.

    mwetoolkit

    THIS PROJECT MIGRATED TO https://gitlab.com/mwetoolkit/mwetoolkit3/

    THIS PROJECT MIGRATED TO https://gitlab.com/mwetoolkit/mwetoolkit3/ The Multiword Expressions toolkit aids in the automatic identification and extraction of multiword units in running text. These include idioms (kick the bucket), noun compounds (cable car), phrasal verbs (take off, give up), etc. Even though it focuses on multiword expresisons, the framework is quite complete and can also be useful in any corpus-based study in computational linguistics. The mwetoolkit can be applied to virtually any text collection, language, and MWE type. It is a command-line tool written mostly in Python. Its development started in 2010 as a PhD thesis but the project keeps active (see the SVN logs). Up-to-date documentation and details about the tool can be found on the mwetoolkit website: http://mwetoolkit.sourceforge.net/

    node-gyp

    node-gyp

    Node.js native addon build tool

    node-gyp is a cross-platform command-line tool written in Node.js for compiling native addon modules for Node.js. It contains a vendored copy of the gyp-next project that was previously used by the Chromium team, extended to support the development of Node.js native addons. Note that node-gyp is not used to build Node.js itself. Multiple target versions of Node.js are supported (i.e. 0.8, ..., 4, 5, 6, etc.), regardless of what version of Node.js is actually installed on your system (node-gyp downloads the necessary development files or headers for the target version). node-gyp requires that you have installed a compatible version of Python, one of: v3.6, v3.7, v3.8, or v3.9. If you have multiple Python versions installed, you can identify which Python version node-gyp should use. A binding.gyp file describes the configuration to build your module, in a JSON-like format. This file gets placed in the root of your package, alongside package.json.

    o1-engineer

    o1-engineer is a command-line tool designed to assist developers

    o1-engineer is a command-line development assistant powered by OpenAI’s API. It helps developers interact with projects through commands for code generation, file editing, project planning, and code review. The tool can add, edit, and manage both files and folders directly from the terminal. Its planning command can create structured project plans that can then guide systematic file and directory generation. It also keeps conversation history and allows users to save or reset context as needed. Overall, it is designed to make AI-assisted coding more interactive, project-aware, and practical from the command line.
