No.5

macUSB makes creating bootable macOS and OS X USB installers ridiculously easy — especially on Apple Silicon Macs. If you’ve ever hit Terminal errors, expired certificates, or broken installers while trying to revive an older Intel Mac, this tool fixes that. It’s a one-click app that detects the macOS version, formats the USB drive, and builds the installer automatically. If you support legacy Macs — this is a lifesaver.

No.6

stop doom-scrolling through 100-page SEC filings. This is tenk — talk to 10-Ks and 10-Qs with AI. Instead of reading filings line by line, you just ask questions in plain English — and tenk answers with real citations linked straight to the source. No hallucinations. No guessing. It auto-fetches filings from the SEC, indexes them locally with RAG, and lets you query across multiple reports instantly.

No.7

If you’ve ever downloaded an STL and struggled to edit it in Fusion 360 or FreeCAD, this solves that problem. You get a drag-and-drop web interface with a real-time 3D preview, so you can inspect meshes before converting. Stepifi automatically repairs broken meshes, lets you tune conversion tolerance.

No.9

toMCP lets you turn any website or documentation into an MCP server — instantly. Just add tomcp.org before any URL, and your docs become structured, AI-ready context. Instead of dumping noisy HTML into prompts, toMCP cleans pages into readable markdown, using far fewer tokens. The real win? Persistent MCP resources — documentation stays pinned as trusted, read-only context, dramatically reducing hallucinations.

No.10

llmwalk lets you explore the full answer-space of a prompt. it branches across the most likely tokens — then ranks complete answers by probability. The tree is walked intelligently, stopping as soon as it’s guaranteed to have the top N most likely outputs. It works with MLX-supported open models, runs straight from the CLI, and gives you deep insight into what an LLM almost said — but didn’t.

No.11

PageFlow is a minimal macOS PDF viewer built for speed. It’s written in SwiftUI with PDFKit, so everything feels fast and perfectly Mac-native. You get annotations, bookmarks, and powerful text search without clutter or bloat. Switch between single page, or two-up views depending on how you read.
