portless
Replace port numbers with stable, named .localhost URLs
portless is an open source developer tool that replaces traditional localhost port numbers with stable, human-readable .localhost URLs, simplifying local development workflows for both humans and AI agents. Instead of managing multiple numeric ports and dealing with conflicts, developers can assign named local endpoints that remain consistent across sessions and services. The project is especially useful in multi-service environments where remembering and coordinating port assignments becomes cumbersome. By automating routing and naming, Portless reduces cognitive overhead and improves clarity when running several applications simultaneously. It is implemented in TypeScript and designed to integrate smoothly into modern JavaScript and Next.js development setups. -

peon-ping
Warcraft III Peon voice notifications (+ more!) for Claude Code
Peon-ping is a quirky utility that brings fun and practical voice notifications to your development workflow by using Warcraft III peon-style sound effects whenever significant events occur in your code editor or terminal. The project is built around the idea of reducing cognitive load by audibly alerting you when processes finish, tests fail, or language models complete responses, helping you stay focused without constantly watching the screen. It integrates with Claude Code, Codex, and other IDEs so that both AI-powered responses and routine command results can trigger peon voices. Because it’s implemented as a simple shell tool, it’s lightweight, easy to set up, and runs alongside your existing tools without interfering with your core development setup. Users can customize which notifications they want and how frequently sounds play, turning mundane events into amusing auditory feedback. -

weathr
A terminal weather app with ascii animation
Weathr is a Rust-based terminal weather application that combines utility with charm by turning your command-line interface into a dynamic, visually engaging weather display that uses animated ASCII art to show real-time conditions. Powered by the Open-Meteo weather API, it fetches up-to-date forecasts and then renders them directly in your terminal, complete with animated rain, snow, thunderstorms, flying airplanes, and day/night cycles that change with the actual weather and time of day. The app includes auto-location detection so it can determine where you are via IP or let you specify coordinates manually for precise updates anywhere in the world. It also supports a range of simulated weather scenarios that you can trigger for testing or entertainment, like simulating snow at night or falling leaves in autumn, making it both useful and delightful to run. -

xterm.js
A terminal for the web
xterm.js is a TypeScript-based front-end terminal emulation component that lets web applications embed fully-featured terminal interfaces. It powers in-browser terminals in tools like VS Code and browser IDEs. Xterm.js works with most terminal apps such as bash, vim, and tmux, including support for curses-based apps and mouse events. Xterm.js is really fast, it even includes a GPU-accelerated renderer. Xterm.js is not a terminal application that you can download and use on your computer. Xterm.js is not bash. Xterm.js can be connected to processes like bash and let you interact with them (provide input, receive output). -

Bastillion
Bastillion gives you a clean, browser-based way to manage SSH access a
Bastillion is a web-based SSH console and SSH key management tool — a bastion host with a friendly browser dashboard. Register a system once; Bastillion pushes its own SSH key to it, so users never hold long-lived keys to your servers themselves. Authorized users then open live, resizable web terminals to one or more systems at once, with commands optionally broadcast to every open session simultaneously. Highlights: centralized SSH key management (rotate/revoke access to every system instantly); two-factor authentication (Authy or Google Authenticator); every terminal session is recorded and can be replayed for audits (PCI DSS, HIPAA, SOC 2, ISO 27001); Profiles control who can reach which systems; Composite Scripts run the same script across a whole fleet; TLS/HTTPS out of the box with custom certificate support; optional LDAP authentication. Ships as a single self-contained jar with an embedded H2 database. Free for up to 5 systems. -
