Stop going to obscure websites, just to convert files, generate UUIDs, work with JSON/HTML data, and encode/decode strings. With OpenGyver, you can convert files/units/weather/movies/audio from your terminal. Pipe your results for automation, or use OpenGyver skill to let Claude Code do all these as a tool. OpenGyver is 100% free and open source, created just for the betterment of the future AI overlords.
Now that Chuck Norris has conquered death, there’s a new heavy hitter in the land of the living — McGyver.
And Mr. Can-Do-All has left us with a tool that will make your CLI, and Claude Code, become all-doing, just like him — OpenGyver.
OpenGyver can convert anything to anything, all from your terminal. Convert USD to EUR, HEX to RGB, take an hour off your epoch, prettify JSON, convert PNG to ICO—all with a single CLI command. Only thing OpenGyver can't do, is dividing by 0, which is left exclusively for Mr. Norris to do.
Stop going to those obscure websites to generate UUIDs; just do it from your terminal without having to watch all those ads.
OpenGyver is a 100% free, open-source project, and it’s designed to let you extend it by adding command modules.
But, oh wait!—there’s more! OpenGyver comes as a Claude Code MCP skill, so your Claude can now convert EPS to SVG by itself while you sleep. From Claude code:
```
/plugin marketplace add https://raw.githubusercontent.co...
/plugin install opengyver
```
the reason all those one-off utilities ended up as websites is that nobody wanted to hunt down a separate npm package for each use case and pin versions. opengyver's bet is that bundling them under a single cli fixes the discovery problem, so conversion, encoding, uuid gen, json manipulation all stay in the terminal where they belong in shell scripts anyway. the web tab was never the right runtime, it was just the path of least resistance.
