The collection

dsopt

Rust

Finds node_modules and Rust target/ directories, shows what they cost, and reclaims the space — with a confirmation before anything is deleted.

Session ConTeXt eXtractor: turns a coding-agent transcript (Claude Code, Codex CLI, Pi) into a compact, verified, provenance-linked handoff any other agent can continue from.

cargo install sctxx

agentman

Rust

A colourful local TUI for managing coding-agent sessions across the agents installed on your machine.
