Sounds good in general! Some thoughts… Since these are tools about the XAR format I’d have expected to see XAR somewhere in the name of the repo. Something like node-xar-tools.
Or maybe the XAR part is the tip of the iceberg and it’s really about a javascript representation of the XWiki model, in which case I’d call it like javascript-xwikimodel. Is node really the important part? Can the js code be used, say, inside XWiki, in a JSX?
