The resulting app is typically under 5MB, compared to 80MB+ for Electron-based alternatives. Supports macOS, Windows, and Linux with features like shortcut customization, immersive windows, and system tray integration. - GitHub: https://github.com/tw93/Pake - Stars: 48,519 - Forks: 9,734 - Stack: Rust, Tauri v2, TypeScript - Latest Release: V3.11.0 "Evolve 👻" (2026-03-27) - Install: `npm install -g pake-cli` - Homepage: https://x.com/HiTw93/status/2037724342755504612 **Features:** - Nearly 20x smaller than Electron apps - Supports macOS, Windows, and Linux - Shortcut customization and immersive window mode - System tray integration - CLI for custom app packaging **Q: How does Pake compare to Electron?** A: Pake uses Tauri (Rust + system WebView) instead of bundling Chromium. This makes apps ~20x smaller and more resource-efficient. **Q: Can I package any website with Pake?** A: Yes. Use the CLI: `pake ` to turn any webpage into a desktop app. You can customize the window size, icon, and shortcuts. **Q: What platforms does Pake support?** A: macOS (Intel and Apple Silicon), Windows (x64), and Linux (x64). Pre-built apps for popular sites are available on the GitHub releases page. **Q: Can I customize the Pake app window behavior?** A: Yes. The CLI supports options for window size, title bar style (immersive/transparent), system tray, custom user agent, keyboard shortcuts, and injecting custom JS/CSS. **Q: Does Pake work with SPAs and login-required sites?** A: Yes. Since Pake uses the system WebView, it handles cookies, localStorage, and auth flows like a regular browser. SPAs with client-side routing work out of the box. **Q: How large is a typical Pake app?** A: Usually 2-5MB on macOS, depending on injected assets. Compare that to Electron apps which start at ~80MB because they bundle Chromium. #### README Excerpt

Waza bundles multiple skills for common engineering workflows. **Q: What skills does Waza include?** A: /check (code review), /hunt (debugging), /design (UI design), /write (prose editing), /learn (research), /think (planning), /health (config audit), /read (URL fetching), /kami (document typesetting). Each skill has a focused workflow with multiple phases. **Q: How do I install Waza?** A: Run `npx skills add tw93/Waza -a claude-code -g -y`. This installs all skills globally for Claude Code. Skills appear as slash commands in your Claude Code session. **Q: Can I use individual Waza skills without installing all of them?** A: The install command adds all skills at once. Each skill is independent and only activates when you invoke its slash command, so unused skills have zero overhead. **Q: Does Waza work with other AI coding tools besides Claude Code?** A: Waza is built specifically for Claude Code's skill system. The prompt templates use Claude Code's tool access (file reading, editing, bash, web search). They are not directly portable to other tools. #### README Excerpt <div align="center"> <img src="https://gw.alipayobjects.com/zos/k/2h/waza.svg" width="120" /> <h1>Waza</h1> <p><b>Engineering habits you already know, turned into skills Claude can run.</b></p> <a href="https://github.com/tw93/Waza/actions/workflows/test.yml"><img src="https://img.shields.io/github/actions/workflow/status/tw93/Waza/test.yml?branch=main&style=flat-square&label=tests" alt="Tests"></a> <a href="https://github.com/tw93/Waza/stargazers"><img src="https://img.shields.io/github/stars/tw93/Waza?style=flat-square" alt="Stars"></a> <a href="https://github.com/tw93/Waza/releases"><img src="https://img.shields.io/github/v/tag/tw93/Waza?label=version&style=flat-square" alt="Version"></a> <a href="LICENSE"><img src="https://img.shields.io/badge/license-MIT-blue.svg?style=flat-square" alt="License"></a> <a href="https://twitter.com/HiTw93"><img src="https://img.shields.io/badge/follow-Tw93-red?style=flat-square&logo=Twitter" alt="Twitter"></a> </div> <br/> ## Why Waza (技, わざ) is a Japanese martial arts term for technique: a move practiced until it becomes instinct. A good engineer does not just write code. They think through requirements, review their own work, debug systematically, design interfaces that feel intentional, and read primary sources. They write clearly, and learn new domains by producing output, not consuming content. AI is more capable than most engineers at raw output. But without structure, that capability drifts into generic, imprecise work. Waza channels it into precision: eight skills that set clear goals and constraints, then let the model do what it does best. Part of a trilogy: [Kaku](https://github.com/tw93/Kaku) (書く) writes code, [Waza](https://github.com/tw93/Waza) (技) drills habits, [Kami](https://github.com/tw93/Kami) (紙) ships documents. Think of them as a family: Kaku is the dad, Waza the big sister, Kami the little sister. <div align="center"> <img src="https://gw.alipayobjects.com/zos/k/qa/waza_repaired_v4.svg" width="1000" /> </div> ## Skills Each engineering habit gets an installed skill. In Claude Code, type the slash command. In Codex, invoke the installed skill by name and follow the same playbook. | Skill | When | What it does | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | [`/think`](skills/think/SKILL.md) | Before building anything new | Challenges the problem, pressure-tests the design, and produces a decision-complete plan another agent can implement. | | [`/design`](skills/design/SKILL.md) | Building frontend interfaces | Produces distinctive UI, including screenshot-driven aesthetic iteration, with a committed direction rather than generic defaults. | | [`/check`](skills/check/SKILL.md) | After a task, before merging or release | Reviews the diff, extracts project-specific constraints, handles approved release/publish/push/reaction follow-through, and verifies with evidence. | [...truncated] ### Kami Kami is a document design system that produces beautifully typeset PDFs. It uses a warm parchment aesthetic with ink-blue accents, serif-led hierarchy, and tight editorial spacing. Supports both Chinese and English typography. - GitHub: https://github.com/tw93/Kami - Stars: 4,742 - Forks: 240 - Stack: HTML, CSS, Python - Latest Release: V1.4.1 "Steadier Hand" (2026-05-06) - Homepage: https://kami.tw93.fun **Features:** - Warm parchment design system - Full bilingual typography (Chinese + English) - Supports resumes, reports, letters, and slide decks - AI-friendly: designed for LLM-generated content **Q: What documents can Kami produce?** A: Resumes, one-pagers, white papers, letters, portfolios, and slide decks. It handles both Chinese and English with appropriate typefaces. **Q: How does Kami work with Claude Code?** A: Kami is invoked via the /kami slash command in Claude Code (installed through Waza). You describe what you want, and it generates a typeset HTML document that can be exported to PDF, image, or slide deck. **Q: What is Kami's design aesthetic?** A: Warm parchment background with ink-blue (#1B365D) accents, Charter serif for English, TsangerJinKai02 + Source Han for Chinese. Tight editorial spacing with clear visual hierarchy. **Q: Does Kami support charts and diagrams?** A: Yes. Kami supports 12 types of inline SVG charts (bar, line, pie, area, architecture diagrams, etc.) with colors that match the parchment design system. Charts are automatically inserted when the content benefits from visualization. **Q: What languages does Kami support for typesetting?** A: Chinese, English, and Japanese. Each language has carefully selected fonts, letter-spacing, line-height, and font-size tuned for print-quality output. #### README Excerpt <div align="center"> <img src="https://gw.alipayobjects.com/zos/k/vl/logo.svg" width="120" /> <h1>Kami</h1> <p><b>Good content deserves good paper.</b></p> <a href="https://github.com/tw93/kami/stargazers"><img src="https://img.shields.io/github/stars/tw93/kami?style=flat-square" alt="Stars"></a> <a href="https://github.com/tw93/kami/releases"><img src="https://img.shields.io/github/v/tag/tw93/kami?label=version&style=flat-square" alt="Version"></a> <a href="LICENSE"><img src="https://img.shields.io/badge/license-MIT-blue.svg?style=flat-square" alt="License"></a> <a href="https://twitter.com/HiTw93"><img src="https://img.shields.io/badge/follow-Tw93-red?style=flat-square&logo=Twitter" alt="Twitter"></a> </div> ## Why Kami (紙, かみ) means paper in Japanese: the surface where a finished idea lands. AI can produce documents better than most humans do manually. The missing piece is not capability but constraint: without a design system, every session drifts into generic gray and inconsistent layouts. Kami fills that gap: one constraint language, eight templates, simple enough for agents to run reliably, strict enough that every output is something you actually want to ship. English and Chinese are first-class; Japanese works via a best-effort CJK path with visual QA before delivery.
