Small utility to magic-mark text matching a pattern

pyFileSearcher was designed to be lightweight, easy to use, but capable of handling a large volume of files tool. A tool that I personally could use on large corporate servers to find out - which files have taken all my space in the last few days? It's free, it's opensource, it's for linux and windows. The program is written in Python 3 using the Qt5.

A dirt simple python tool using wx.Python and the librets library to look at a RETS server's complete metadata.

rag-search is a lightweight Retrieval-Augmented Generation API service designed to provide structured semantic search and answer generation through a simple FastAPI backend. The project integrates web search, vector embeddings, and reranking logic to retrieve relevant context before passing it to a language model for response generation. It is built to be easily deployable, requiring only environment configuration and dependency installation to run a functional RAG service. The system supports configurable filtering, scoring thresholds, and reranking options, allowing developers to fine-tune retrieval quality. Its architecture is modular, separating handlers, services, and utilities to support customization and extension. Overall, rag-search serves as a practical starter backend for teams building AI search or question-answering applications on their own data.

Python script for doing mass extended-regular-expression based replacements on a stdin stream.

A simple command line regex search [and replace] written in Python. Searches individual files or whole directories, with the option to search recursively into subdirectories.

turbovec is a Rust-based vector index with Python bindings for fast similarity search. It is built around TurboQuant, a quantization approach designed to reduce vector storage while preserving useful distance information. The project targets workloads where embedding search needs to be compact, efficient, and practical to integrate into Python applications. It avoids a separate training phase for the quantizer, which can simplify setup compared with systems that require codebook learning. TurboVec is useful for developers building retrieval, ranking, semantic search, recommendation, or AI memory systems. Its main value is combining Rust performance with a Python-facing workflow for modern vector search experiments and applications.
