Read the license before use the library: https://github.com/bouk/monkey/blob/master/LICENSE.md Caution! This approach is very dangerous, and not thread safe.

"I took the above code and put it in an easy to use library" ... [but] "I do not give anyone permissions to use this tool for any purpose. Don't use it."

Sounds strange, until you consider that he only added the "license" 2 years later. I wonder how many questions from various people wanting to use the tool for various purposes he received during this time?

People kept asking for a license so they could use it, so I added a license that clarifies that this is not a project that should be seriously used.

At least "any purpose" should say anything other than personal testing or something. This is silly otherwise. On the other hand at least he's transparent about it.

There are many things for which we do not need permission though. I am OK with these words.

The project is meant as one big joke, so yeah don't use it.

It should be thread safe once the write completes, no?
