    VOID-TOOLS

    VOID-TOOLS

    OSINT, Discord, web & network utilities

    VOID-TOOLS is a Python terminal multitool suite for OSINT, Discord, web, network, social, Roblox, and utility workflows. It is built around a Rich-powered terminal dashboard with keyboard navigation, a cinematic boot flow, category panels, and a live sidebar. The tool organizes many modules into categories and marks premium tools separately from free ones. It includes bilingual setup, theme selection, fuzzy search, category filters, custom plugin loading, and remote manifest updates. The project describes itself as educational and authorized-use-only, especially because some modules relate to security, network checks, webhooks, and platform administration. It is best understood as a modular terminal dashboard for research and utility tasks rather than a single-purpose application.

    iTerm2 Color Schemes

    iTerm2 Color Schemes

    Over 425 terminal color schemes/themes for iTerm/iTerm2

    This project curates a large collection of terminal color schemes and makes them available in formats for many terminal emulators, not just iTerm2. You’ll find well-known palettes like Solarized, Dracula, Nord, and hundreds more, each with previews that showcase how code, prompts, and text look under the theme. The repository includes export files for multiple terminals—such as iTerm2, Apple Terminal, Alacritty, Kitty, Windows Terminal, and others—so you can apply the same aesthetic consistently across machines. There are helper tools and conversion scripts to generate or translate schemes, plus instructions for importing them on each supported terminal. Because it’s community-driven, new schemes and updates are added regularly, and issues often include tweaks to improve readability or contrast for different use cases.

    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.

    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.

    SAWS

    SAWS

    A supercharged AWS command line interface (CLI)

    Although the AWS CLI is a great resource to manage your AWS-powered services, it's tough to remember the usage of 70+ top-level commands, 2000+ subcommand, countless command-specific options, and resources such as instance tags and buckets. SAWS aims to supercharge the AWS CLI with features focusing on improving ease-of-use, and increasing productivity. Under the hood, SAWS is powered by the AWS CLI and supports the same commands and command structure. In addition to the default commands, subcommands, and options the AWS CLI provides, SAWS supports auto-completion of your AWS resources. Currently, bucket names, instance ids, and instance tags are included, with additional support for more resources under development. Sometimes you're not quite sure what specific command/subcommand/option combination you need to use. In such cases, browsing through several combinations with the help command line is cumbersome versus browsing the online AWS CLI docs through a web browser.

    SharPyShell

    SharPyShell

    Tiny and obfuscated ASP.NET webshell for C# web applications

    SharPyShell is a tiny and obfuscated ASP.NET web shell that executes commands received by an encrypted channel compiling them in memory at runtime. SharPyShell supports only C# web applications that run on .NET Framework >= 2.0. SharPyShell is a post-exploitation framework written in Python. The main aim of this framework is to provide the penetration tester with a series of tools to ease the post-exploitation phase once exploitation has been successful against an IIS webserver. This tool is not intended as a replacement for the frameworks for C2 Server (i.e. Meterpreter, Empire, etc..) but this should be used when you land on a fully restricted server where inbound and outbound connections are very limited. In this framework, you will have all the tools needed to privesc, net discovery, and lateral movement as you are typing behind the cmd of the target server.

    xxh

    xxh

    Bring your favorite shell wherever you go through the ssh

    You stuffed the command shell with aliases, tools and colors but you lose it all when using ssh. The mission of xxh is to bring your favorite shell wherever you go through ssh without root access and system installations. Preparing portable shells and plugins occurs locally and then xxh uploads the result to the host. No installations or root access on the host is required. Security and host environment are a prime focus. No blindfold copying config files from local to the remote host. Following privacy and repeatability practices the best way is to fork the xxh plugin or shell example and pack your configs into it. Every xxh repo could be forked, customized, and reused without waiting for a package management system, xxh release, or any third-party packages. Five shells are currently supported and more could be added by the community.

    YTS Terminal Manager

    Terminal Manager: Your All-in-One Remote Management Solution

    YTS Terminal Manager is an all-in-one terminal and remote-session manager for Windows 10 and 11. It handles SSH, Telnet, serial (RS-232/RS-485), SFTP, FTP, SCP and RDP connections as tabs in a single window, so the console cable, the jump host, the file transfer and the device web UI all live in one place and share the same favorites, logging and shortcuts. A built-in AI assistant reads your live terminal, understands the device you are connected to, and can diagnose problems, explain output, or plan configuration changes - always behind a risk-gate that asks before anything mutating runs. It works with Claude, OpenAI, Gemini, Qwen, GLM and GitHub Models, or with a fully local model via Ollama, LM Studio or vLLM for air-gapped environments. It is extensible with MCP servers and reusable Skills, and it is entirely optional.
