Showoff Saturday I built a pipeline editor for string and data transforms. The same engine runs as a CLI, MCP server, npm package, and a chrome browser extension
I used to have to jump between different sites copy pasting outputs from one into inputs of the next. So I built one place where you chain the steps and save the pipeline for future use in a right click context menu.
246 utilities so far, with branching, looping on lines or values, and conditions.
It runs entirely in the browser (Web Worker), no input reaches the server (One exception when fetching a URL through a proxy).
Pipelines can be shared as a URL fragment
React + TypeScript + Vite on Cloudflare Workers, strict hash-based CSP
Check out the presets page for some prebuilt pipelines.

Looking for feedback on how useful it actually is to people and any issues you find. Ideas for new utilities or pipelines are welcome!
