WorkerVless2sub
Automate batch replacement to generate subscription generators
WorkerVless2sub is a dedicated subscription generator focused on providing “preferred line” subscriptions by processing VMess, VLESS, Trojan nodes, filtering and replacing automatically via a Cloudflare Worker script. The idea is you supply node lists (or use existing APIs/CSV sources) and the worker filters them by criteria like speed or reliability and then emits a subscription link for end-users. It supports deployment on Cloudflare Pages or Workers, offers configuration via variables like HOST, UUID, PATH, ADD, ADDAPI etc., and has an Apache-2.0 license. The tool supports both IPv4 and IPv6 node sources, speed test CSV inputs, and logic to drop nodes that don’t meet the threshold (DLS variable). It has a sizeable star count and forks indicating broader adoption in self-hosted proxy subscription communities. The README also explicitly warns about hosting personal private nodes in the script if intending public use. -

Nomulus
Top-level domain name registry service on Google Cloud Platform
Nomulus is a production-grade, open-source domain registry platform used to operate top-level domains (TLDs). It implements the core registry protocols—EPP for registrar interactions, WHOIS/RDAP for public data access—and manages the lifecycle of domain objects, hosts, and contacts. The system is built to scale and to enforce policy: pricing rules, reserved names, premium tiers, grace periods, and automated renewals are modeled explicitly. It integrates with DNS provisioning, data escrow, and billing so you can run a compliant registry end-to-end rather than stitching together separate services. Operators get admin tools for reporting, manual adjustments, and policy configuration, while registrars interact through standards-compliant channels. Nomulus treats registries as serious infrastructure: audited flows, durable storage, and clear extension points for custom policies and TLD-specific behavior. -
