Heyuri★CGI is a subsection of Heyuri that houses CGI/Perl scripts for bulletin boards, web chats, CGI games, and moar.
It was launched on July 7, 2023, and is primarily operated by anonwaha, who has modified and translated virtually all the scripts hosted there.
CGI? But I don't see any polygons...

CGI in this case refers to Common Gateway Interface, which is a TEH OLDE way to allow a server to run executable scripts/programs that can process HTTP/S requests. Basically, it allowed early web users to create interactive and dynamic websites.
So what's the big deal?
In Japan especially, there was a HUEG web culture centered around open source CGI scripts (not least of which were the Ayashii World-type bulletin board, the 2ch-type bulletin board, and the imageboard). There was also a hueg CGI game (CGIゲーム) scene in the late-1990s and early-2000s in Japan—to the point where it has been described as a "craze"—that went totally under the radar of the West.
Most die-hard Japanophiles and retro-web enthusiasts are completely unaware of anything besides 2ch-type bulletin boards and imageboards in this area, and as of 2023 there's virtually no English-language documentation of the existence of CGI games outside of Heyuri (see! Heyuri really is "the place to be"!).
With that in mind, the concept behind Heyuri★CGI is to bring these "missing elements" of the 1990s/2000s Japanese web to the English-speaking web of the 2020s, filling in some gaps that many don't even realize exist.
