The author created kirigami, an Emacs package that unifies folding across different modes (Tree-sitter, Hideshow, Outline, Org, Vdiff) behind a single consistent keybinding interface. It solves the problem of having to remember different fold commands in each major mode by dispatching to the appropriate engine automatically.
Background
