MX Workbench is a personal project (not an official MX version). It is a Live-USB version of Linux made with MX tools, which is meant to be a kind of tool for administrators, which contains a lot of useful programs that can be used for cloning disks and partitions, recovering files, searching for viruses and rootkits , hardware benchmarking, deleting drives, resetting Windows password, updating firmware, ftp, remoting and so on (similar to Parted Magic).
It is meant to show how easy it is to create a custom MX - ISO: anyone can run this live, customize it, take a snapshot and have their own tools and settings ready to use for their own purposes. It is not meant to be installed. It also sudoruns without a password.
Most useful GUI tools are listed in the GUI (custom toolbox) that appears at the beginning. Here are a few utilities over what you usually find in an MX version (some are just CLI tools):
