I love writing those ! They are (mostly) short to write and provide tons of value because they are tailored for you. And for the code/language, you get to choose your level of hackyness vs cleaness.
I personally wrote:
* Scripts to command my window manager (i3): move workspace to other screen, create a temporary workspace, move a window to a new workspace
* CLI scripts to send an ascii version of my calendar to Telegram / Slack
* Scripts to generate complex transactions for the accounting of my consultancy company (eg. salary with the social taxes distributed to the right accounts). I use Ledger, so I also use its Python library to read all the transactions and output benefits/expenses/... graphs with matplotlib. Thanks to the matplotlib-backend-kitty project, I can have the graphs directly in my terminal.
* Scripts to send convert ePub/mobi and send PDFs to my reMarkable, also a fake printer that directly sends the PDF to the reMarkable
* A Pomodoro service with the possibility to subscribe to specific events, eg. play a gong sound when a pomodoro starts
