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. -

Streamlink
Streamlink is a CLI utility which pipes video streams
Streamlink is a command-line utility that pipes video streams from various services into a video player, such as VLC. The main purpose of Streamlink is to avoid resource-heavy and unoptimized websites, while still allowing the user to enjoy various streamed content. There is also an API available for developers who want access to the stream data. Streamlink is built upon a plugin system that allows support for new services to be easily added. Most of the big streaming services are supported. Streamlink is made up of two parts, a cli and a library API. See their respective sections for more information on how to use them. The default behavior of Streamlink is to playback streams in the VLC player. Please note that by using this application you're bypassing ads run by sites such as Twitch.tv. Please consider donating or paying for subscription services when they are available for the content you consume and enjoy. -

PRTG Catches Network Issues Before They Cause DowntimeReactive 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
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. -

This makes it useful for developers, system administrators, and Linux users who want fast terminal access without constantly managing separate windows. Guake supports tabs, customizable appearance, hotkeys, and session-oriented terminal usage. It is designed to stay out of the way until needed, then provide immediate access to a shell from the top of the screen. Its main value is speed, convenience, and a lightweight workflow for users who repeatedly switch between graphical apps and command-line work. -

Deep Daze
Simple command line tool for text to image generation
Simple command-line tool for text to image generation using OpenAI's CLIP and Siren (Implicit neural representation network). In true deep learning fashion, more layers will yield better results. Default is at 16, but can be increased to 32 depending on your resources. Technique first devised and shared by Mario Klingemann, it allows you to prime the generator network with a starting image, before being steered towards the text. Simply specify the path to the image you wish to use, and optionally the number of initial training steps. We can also feed in an image as an optimization goal, instead of only priming the generator network. Deepdaze will then render its own interpretation of that image. The regular mode for texts only allows 77 tokens. If you want to visualize a full story/paragraph/song/poem, set create_story to True. -

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. -
