Cloudflare has developed and open-sourced a suite of command-line tools (mmsum, mmwatch, mmhistogram) to aid in data analysis and visualization. These tools provide capabilities for generating ASCII histograms, monitoring real-time rate of change for command output, and summing lists of floating-point numbers. This expands the internal tooling available for engineers to quickly understand and process data from various sources, including network traffic and system metrics.

This post introduces three new open-source command-line tools: mmsum, mmwatch, and mmhistogram. mmhistogram generates ASCII histograms from CSV data, mmwatch monitors command output for changing numbers and displays them as rates, and mmsum sums lists of floating-point numbers. These tools are made available to the community via GitHub.
