Harmony
Patching, replacing and decorating .NET and Mono methods
Harmony gives you an elegant and high-level way to alter the functionality in applications written in C#. It works great in games and is well established in titles like 7 Days To Die, BattleTech, Besiege, Cities:Skylines, Kerbal Space Program, Oxygen Not Included, Ravenfield, Rimworld, Sheltered, Stardew Valley, Staxel, Subnautica, The Ultimate Nerd Game, Total Miner, Unturned, SCP: Secret Laboratory and many more. If you develop in C# and your code is loaded as a module/plugin into a host application, you can use Harmony to alter the functionality of all the available assemblies of that application. Where other patch libraries simply allow you to replace the original method, Harmony goes one step further. It is also used in unit testing WPF controls and in many other areas. Installation is done by using 0Harmony.dll in your project or by using the Lib.Harmony nuget package. -

arduino-cli
Arduino command line tool
Arduino CLI is an all-in-one solution that provides Boards/Library Managers, sketch builders, board detection, uploader, and many other tools needed to use any Arduino compatible board and platform from the command line or machine interfaces.

The script requires sh, which is always available on Linux and macOS. sh is not available by default on Windows, though it is available as part of Git for Windows (Git Bash). If you don't have sh available, use the "Download" installation option. If you would like to use the arduino-cli command from any location, install Arduino CLI to a directory already in your PATH or add the Arduino CLI installation path to your PATH environment variable. -

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. -
