Semi-automated research assistant for CS and AI researchers that links ideation, Zotero literature management, experiment analysis and reporting, paper writing and reviewer responses, and keeps project knowledge in Obsidian. Branches for Codex and other agents exist.

Semi-automated research workflow for computer science and AI researchers: ideation, Zotero literature management, experiment analysis and reports, paper writing and polishing, and rebuttals, with optional Obsidian knowledge base. 40+ skills; also installable as a Claude Code plugin.

Fixes defensive academic writing full of hedging and preemptive disclaimers, organizing abstract, introduction, experiments and conclusion around your strongest contribution. Also helps trim length and self-check before a rebuttal. English and Chinese versions, plus a prompt for any AI chat.

Connects to your local or cloud Zotero library: search by title, full text or semantics, read PDFs and annotations, add items by DOI and organize collections. Needs Python 3.10+; for local mode, enable the local API in Zotero settings first.

Community Playwright browser automation MCP from ExecuteAutomation (not Microsoft's official one): navigate, click, fill forms, screenshot and scrape page text, plus send HTTP requests, assert network responses and record actions into test code, with 143 device emulations built in.

macOS screen capture, accessibility-tree inspection and native UI automation, served over MCP so agents can see the screen and click, type and operate menus. Requires macOS 15+ with Screen Recording and Accessibility permissions granted.

macOS screenshot and UI automation CLI: capture the screen, read the accessibility tree for structured UI elements, then click, type, and switch windows and menus. Also runs as an MCP server for Claude Code and Codex. Needs macOS 15+ with Screen Recording and Accessibility permissions.

Detects shot changes in video and splits long footage into scenes, exporting cut lists and per-scene thumbnails, useful for shot analysis, organizing footage and finding edit points. Runs locally; needs Python 3.10+, plus FFmpeg or mkvmerge for splitting.

LM Studio's official CLI: list, load and unload local models, start and stop the local API server, and check status and logs; ls, ps and other commands support --json output for scripts and agents. Requires the LM Studio desktop app.

From Callstack: lets coding agents inspect, operate and verify apps on iOS, Android and HarmonyOS simulators and real devices, reading accessibility snapshots, taking screenshots and recordings, and capturing logs and performance data. Ships both a CLI and a built-in MCP server.

From Callstack: lets coding agents drive and verify iOS, Android, HarmonyOS and desktop apps through accessibility snapshots, with taps, form filling, screenshots, logs and performance sampling, plus a built-in MCP server. Requires Node.js 22.12+.

Self-contained modern TeX/LaTeX engine based on XeTeX and TeX Live that downloads and caches support files on first build, compiling .tex to PDF in one command without installing a full TeX distribution.

From ISCAS's Chinese Information Processing Lab: Claude Code or Codex write slides from your brief, render each page to check layout, and export an editable PPTX, for lectures and academic talks. Needs macOS, Linux or WSL with Python (uv), npm and LibreOffice; install per the README.

Gives agents Exa web search and page content fetching, with an optional multi-step research agent and advanced filtered search. Maintained by Exa; the hosted service works anonymously with limits, and signing in or adding an API key raises them.

CLI and TypeScript runtime for discovering and calling MCP servers from the terminal and scripts: list tool signatures and call tools directly, or generate a standalone CLI or typed client from a server. Auto-imports existing MCP configs from Claude Code, Codex and others.

Empirical social science skills from Stanford REAP and CoPaper.AI, bundling 77 in-house and third-party collections: topic selection, literature reviews, DID/RD/IV identification, regression tables in Python, Stata or R, robustness audits and paper writing. Stata flows need Stata installed.

Runs Google Lighthouse across an entire site (sampling similar pages smartly) and summarizes SEO, performance and accessibility scores page by page in a local web UI; unlighthouse-ci writes reports directly for agents to read. Great for site-wide SEO checkups. Needs Node.js 22.18+.

Draws bar charts, histograms, line charts, scatter plots and box plots in the terminal from CSV/TSV on stdin, so you can glance at data distributions at the end of a shell pipeline. The command is uplot.

English prose linter that turns usage guides such as Garner's and advice from great writers into rules, flagging clichés, redundancy, bad comparisons and usage errors line by line, with JSON output for agents. Runs locally with Python; English only.

Stores agent memory as local Markdown notes that both people and AI can read, write, search and link, and you can open them directly in Obsidian. Local-first, open source and free, with a paid cloud sync option.

Uses Obsidian's community Local REST API plugin so agents can list, read, search, append to and delete notes, and insert content at a heading, block reference or frontmatter field. Install that plugin and configure its API key first.
