Terminator
multiple GNOME terminals in one window
Terminator was originally developed by Chris Jones in 2007 as a simple, 300-ish line Python script. Since then, it has become The Robot Future of Terminals. Originally inspired by projects like quadkonsole and gnome-multi-term and more recently by projects like Iterm2, and Tilix, It lets you combine and recombine terminals to suit the style you like. If you live at the command line or are logged into 10 different remote machines at once, you should definitely try out Terminator. -

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. -

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. -

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.

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. -

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. -

buku
Personal mini-web in text
buku is a powerful bookmark manager and a personal textual mini-web. For those who prefer the GUI, bukuserver exposes a browsable front-end on a local web host server. When I started writing it, I couldn't find a flexible command-line solution with a private, portable, merge-able database along with seamless GUI integration. Hence, buku. buku can import bookmarks from the browser(s) or fetch the title, tags and description of a URL from the web. Use your favorite editor to add, compose and update bookmarks. Search bookmarks instantly with multiple search options, including regex and a deep scan mode (handy with URLs). It can look up broken links on Wayback Machine. There's an Easter Egg to revisit random bookmarks. There's no tracking, hidden history, obsolete records, usage analytics or homing. To get started right away, jump to the Quickstart section. buku has one of the best documentation around. The man page comes with examples. -

googler
Google from the terminal
googler is a power tool to Google (web, news, videos and site search) from the command line. It shows the title, URL and abstract for each result, which can be directly opened in a browser from the terminal. Results are fetched in pages (with page navigation). Supports sequential searches in a single googler instance. googler was initially written to cater to headless servers without X. You can integrate it with a text-based browser. However, it has grown into a very handy and flexible utility that delivers much more. For example, fetch any number of results or start anywhere, limit the search by any duration, define aliases to google search any number of websites, and switch domains easily, all of this in a very clean interface without ads or stray URLs. The shell completion scripts make sure you don't need to remember any options. -

itchat
A complete and graceful API for Wechat
itchat is an open-source WeChat personal account interface, it has never been easier to use python to call WeChat. With less than thirty lines of code, you can have a WeChat bot that handles all the information. Of course, the use of this api is far more than a robot, and more functions are waiting for you to discover. This interface shares a similar operation method with the public account interface itchatmp , learning to master two tools at a time. Now WeChat has become a large part of personal social networking. I hope this project can help you expand your personal WeChat account and facilitate your life. By printing the chat user and the parameters of the registration message, you can find that these values are all dictionaries. But in fact, that has carefully constructed corresponding messages, users, group chats, and official accounts. -

Winshell+ is not a shell, but acts like one. It is windows only. I will extend its features later. The current version is 0.1 To install winshell+, download all of the files in the folder for the current version of the software. This program is only in the alpha stage, so don't expect it to be amazing and full of awesome features. My next update will probably incorporate data compression and decompression, and possibly POP e-mail (I hop!e) -

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.
