    JC

    JC

    CLI tool and python library

    CLI tool and python library that converts the output of popular command-line tools and file types to JSON or Dictionaries. This allows piping of output to tools like jq and simplifying automation scripts. jc JSONifies the output of many CLI tools and file types for easier parsing in scripts. This allows further command-line processing of output with tools like jq or jello by piping commands. The JC parsers can also be used as python modules. In this case, the output will be a python dictionary, or a list of dictionaries, instead of JSON. Two representations of the data are available. The default representation uses a strict schema per parser and converts known numbers to int/float JSON values. Certain known values of None are converted to JSON null, known boolean values are converted, and, in some cases, additional semantic context fields are added.

    book-to-skill

    book-to-skill

    Turn any technical book PDF into a Claude Code skill

    book-to-skill is a Claude Code skill that turns technical books and documents into reusable AI reference skills. It extracts content from PDFs and EPUBs, then organizes the material so an assistant can study, reference, and apply it while working. The project is useful for transforming dense manuals, textbooks, internal documentation, or technical guides into practical agent-accessible knowledge. It includes an extraction script and a SKILL.md workflow that guides how the resulting content should be used. The goal is not simply to summarize a book, but to make its knowledge available during problem solving and implementation. book-to-skill is best suited for developers and researchers who want AI assistants to work from specific long-form source material.

    Nano PDF Editor

    Nano PDF Editor

    Edit PDF files with Nano Banana

    Nano PDF Editor is a minimalist, portable PDF viewer and toolkit that focuses on simplicity, speed, and ease of integration for applications that need basic PDF rendering without heavy dependencies. It provides core functionality such as page navigation, zooming, text selection, and rendering directly to native graphics surfaces, making it suitable for lightweight PDF viewing scenarios on desktop or embedded platforms. Designed to be easily embedded into larger software projects, Nano-PDF has a small code footprint and straightforward APIs that developers can call from common languages, helping it fit into text editors, document explorers, or custom user interfaces with minimal effort. The viewer strives to comply with standard PDF features, like annotations and linked bookmarks, while avoiding the complexity of full-featured document suites that prioritize editing or creation.

    TOML

    TOML

    Tom Preston-Werner's obvious, minimal language

    Tom's Obvious, Minimal Language. By Tom Preston-Werner, Pradyun Gedam, et al. TOML aims to be a minimal configuration file format that's easy to read due to obvious semantics. TOML is designed to map unambiguously to a hash table. TOML should be easy to parse into data structures in a wide variety of languages. TOML shares traits with other file formats used for application configuration and data serialization, such as YAML and JSON. TOML and JSON both are simple and use ubiquitous data types, making them easy to code for or parse with machines. TOML and YAML both emphasize human readability features, like comments that make it easier to understand the purpose of a given line. TOML differs in combining these, allowing comments (unlike JSON) but preserving simplicity (unlike YAML). Because TOML is explicitly intended as a configuration file format, parsing it is easy, but it is not intended for serializing arbitrary data structures.

    AWS Lambda Python Runtime Interf Client

    AWS Lambda Python Runtime Interf Client

    Seamlessly extend your preferred base images to be Lambda compatible

    We have open-sourced a set of software packages, Runtime Interface Clients (RIC), that implement the Lambda Runtime API, allowing you to seamlessly extend your preferred base images to be Lambda compatible. The Lambda Runtime Interface Client is a lightweight interface that allows your runtime to receive requests from and send requests to the Lambda service. The Lambda Python Runtime Interface Client is vended through pip. You can include this package in your preferred base image to make that base image Lambda compatible. To make it easy to locally test Lambda functions packaged as container images we open-sourced a lightweight web-server, Lambda Runtime Interface Emulator (RIE), which allows your function packaged as a container image to accept HTTP requests. You can install the AWS Lambda Runtime Interface Emulator on your local machine to test your function. Then when you run the image function, you set the entry point to be the emulator.

    Python ADB

    Python ADB

    Python ADB + Fastboot implementation

    python-adb provides a pure-Python implementation of the Android Debug Bridge protocol so you can script Android devices without depending on the platform adb binary. It exposes high-level helpers for device discovery, shell commands, file push/pull, port forwarding, and log collection, making it easy to build automation around phones and emulators. Under the hood it speaks the ADB protocol directly and can connect via USB or over TCP, which is useful for lab setups and headless servers. Because it’s Python, you can compose device actions with your favorite testing, scraping, or data-collection libraries in one process. The project also includes utilities for robust connection handling and timeouts so flaky USB links don’t derail long runs. It’s well-suited to CI test farms, large-scale telemetry, and custom device control workflows.

    OSCAL

    OSCAL

    Open Security Controls Assessment Language (OSCAL)

    NIST is developing the Open Security Controls Assessment Language (OSCAL), a set of hierarchical, XML-, JSON-, and YAML-based formats that provide a standardized representation of information pertaining to the publication, implementation, and assessment of security controls. OSCAL is being developed through a collaborative approach with the public. Public contributions to this project are welcome. With this effort, we are stressing the agile development of a set of minimal formats that are generic enough to capture the breadth of data in scope (controls specifications), while also capable of ad-hoc tuning and extension to support peculiarities of both (industry or sector) standards and new control types. The OSCAL website provides an overview of the OSCAL project, including an XML and JSON schema reference, examples, and other resources.

    TradingView Chart Data Extractor

    TradingView Chart Data Extractor

    Extract price and indicator data from TradingView charts

    Ensure that you zoom/pan such that the oldest date you desire is visible on TradingView before publishing the chart. Too many indicators or too low a time resolution will increase the data points and potentially overload the free server. Avoid this by hosting/running the script on your local machine or scraping multiple times with fewer indicators and manually combining the CSV afterward. Simply append the URL of a chart/idea published on TradingView to the link below. This is not the URL of a security's chart, but the URL for a user-published chart.

    pywebview is a lightweight cross-platform wrapper around a webview component that allows to display HTML content in its own native GUI window. It gives you power of web technologies in your desktop application, hiding the fact that GUI is browser based. You can use pywebview either with a lightweight web framework like Flask or Bottle or on its own with a two way bridge between Python and DOM. pywebview uses native GUI for creating a web component window: WinForms on Windows, Cocoa on macOS and QT or GTK on Linux. If you choose to freeze your application, pywebview does not bundle a heavy GUI toolkit or web renderer with it keeping the executable size small. pywebview is compatible with Python 3.
