AI2's tool for converting PDFs and scans to Markdown with a vision LLM, handling equations, tables, handwriting and multi-column layouts, suited to bulk digitizing papers and archives. Local runs need an NVIDIA GPU with 12GB+ VRAM; otherwise use a paid OpenAI-compatible remote endpoint.

Lets Claude Code push ML research forward unattended: literature review, topic selection, experiment deployment, cross-model review loops and paper writing through rebuttal, in 80+ skills. Codex acts as the independent reviewer by default; other model pairings work too.

Browser control from the browser-use team: an editable CDP connection lets agents drive the Chrome you are already using, writing missing helper functions as they go and keeping them for reuse. Also offers an MCP server. Allow remote debugging in Chrome on first use.

Sealos's Kubernetes lifecycle CLI: one sealos run deploys a highly available cluster across multiple servers, and cluster images install databases, middleware and other apps, with offline delivery support. Linux only.

Context and harness engineering skills covering context compression and optimization, multi-agent architectures, memory systems, tool design and LLM-as-judge evaluation, activated automatically by task. Aimed at building production-grade agent systems.

Context and harness engineering skills: context fundamentals, degradation diagnosis and compression, multi-agent architectures, memory systems, tool design, LLM-as-judge evaluation and self-improvement loops. Focused on principles and design patterns, not tied to any agent platform.

Official Lark (Feishu) approval skill: list pending, handled and submitted approvals; approve, reject, transfer, return, remind or withdraw; and find and submit native approvals such as leave or expense requests. Needs lark-cli with app setup and sign-in authorization.

Official Lark (Feishu) skill to create and edit Lark Sheets: formulas, charts and pivot tables, conditional formatting and filters, plus import and export of local Excel/CSV, for summaries, budgets and reports. Needs lark-cli on a machine with Node.js, plus app setup and authorization.
