Nanako (菜菜子), or Nyanako (喵菜子) if you know me from Discord. I'm an SRE. Keeping systems reliable is the day job — the projects here are the same instinct pointed somewhere else.

UX has frontend engineers. DX has SRE.

Every one of these started because I needed it. Syrtis (formerly TokenBar) exists because I wanted to know what a session actually cost without opening a dashboard. coralline exists because I've used Powerlevel10k in zsh for years and wanted the same thing in my Claude Code statusline — I only packaged it up because people kept asking how I'd done it.

I share it because sharing is the good part, and once it's public I maintain it properly. What comes next is genuinely unknown — whatever I hit while learning, whatever annoys me enough to open a new repo.

The full story of the TokenBar rewrite (now Syrtis) — Rust core, Swift shell, and the FFI seam between them — is written up here (zh-TW): Rust 的引擎，Swift 的外殼

~ ❯ ls -l ~/projects --sort=stars

~ ❯ tokscale models --week --group-by model

Real usage, pushed here every six hours by a cron job on my Mac. The numbers come from tokscale — junhoyeo's Rust engine for reading agent session data, and the engine Syrtis runs on. I send fixes upstream when I trip over them; the Swift shell around it is my part. Grouped by model rather than by client, because the client would lie: I drive GPT models through Claude Code.

我一直想要一個地方：能認真聊技術，也能放心做自己。找不到，那就自己開一個。

• 💻 技術控 — agentic coding、熱門 AI 應用、開源工具、軟體開發、DevOps／SRE。想深聊、想求救、想炫專案都可以。
• 💬 只想交朋友、放鬆閒聊 — 完全歡迎，不用很懂技術。
• 🏳️‍⚧️ 秘密專區 — 我自己是跨女，所以特別開了一區給跨性別、偽娘／男娘：安心做自己、和姐妹聊女裝、交朋友、談談心事。

不管你是哪一種（或同時是好幾種），這裡都有你的位置。

Something broken, or an idea for a feature → open an issue on that repo. That's what issues are for, and the answer helps the next person too. If a tool just made your day easier and you want to say so there, that's welcome as well — I read every one.

Anything formal → email me at nanakotsai@nyanako.com.

Anything casual → the Discord above, DM me there, or find me on Threads and X.

A note on language: I'm a native Traditional Chinese speaker and my English isn't fluent — some of my replies go through a translator. Chinese is very welcome, and please bear with me in English.
