QuickSheet for Developers — Dev Dashboard on Your Desktop Wallpaper

🔧 Dev Tools on Your Desktop

🔀

GitHub PR Status

ext: ghpr owner/repo

See open pull requests, review status, CI checks, and merge readiness for your repos. Live updates without opening a browser.

✅

GitHub Actions Monitor

ext: gha owner/repo

Live CI/CD pipeline status — ✅❌🔄 for every workflow run. Branch, duration, and age at a glance. Never miss a failed build.

📜

Git Log

ext: gitlog /path/to/repo

Recent commits with hash, author, relative time, and message. Track what your team pushed without leaving your editor.

🔑

JWT Decoder

ext: jwtdec eyJhbG...

Paste a JWT and see header, payload, claims, and expiry decoded in cells. No more pasting into jwt.io during debugging.

🔐

Base64 Codec

ext: b64 SGVsbG8...

Encode or decode base64 strings inline. Auto-detects direction. Multi-line output for large payloads. Always at your fingertips.

⏰

Cron Expression Parser

ext: cronck */5 * * * *

Human-readable cron explanations. "Every 5 minutes" instead of staring at */5 * * * *. Validates syntax too.

🌐

URL Encoder/Decoder

ext: urlenc hello%20world

Encode or decode URL strings. Component mode, path mode, full-URI mode. UTF-8 aware. No more searching "url decode online".

🐳

Docker Container Status

ext: docker

Running containers, CPU/memory usage, port mappings, uptime. Your local Docker environment at a glance on your wallpaper.

📦

Package Lookups

ext: npm express

Check latest versions, download counts, and metadata for npm, NuGet, PyPI, crates.io, or RubyGems packages without leaving your flow.

🔥

GitHub Streak Tracker

ext: ghstreak username

Your contribution streak, today's commits, and longest streak. Motivational data on your wallpaper to keep the green squares going.

🧪

Regex Explainer

ext: regex ^[a-z]+\d{2,}$

Paste a regex, get a human-readable breakdown of every token — anchors, classes, quantifiers, groups. Debug patterns visually.

🖥️

System Monitor

ext: sysmon

CPU, RAM, disk, and uptime with visual progress bars. Know when your dev machine is thrashing before your build hangs.

👁️ Zero Context Switching
PR status and CI results are on your wallpaper. No more opening GitHub in a browser tab 50 times a day. Just glance at your desktop.
⚡ Instant Dev Utilities
JWT decode, base64, URL encode, regex explain — all in cells. Stop googling "base64 decode online" and use your wallpaper instead.
🧠 Ambient Awareness
See your git log, Docker status, and system load without running commands. The information is just... there, behind your IDE.
📝 Persistent Scratch Pad
Quick notes, TODOs, debugging breadcrumbs. Autosaves every 5 seconds to CSV. Survives reboots. No separate notes app needed.
🐧 Terminal-Native
Built for developers who live in the terminal. Linux X11 + Windows native. Keyboard-driven. No Electron. No browser. No bloat.
