Figma's Codex plugin in OpenAI's official marketplace: implements UI from designs, generates Code Connect mappings, and creates or updates pages, component libraries, FigJam diagrams and slides in Figma. Needs a connected Figma account.

OpenAI's official Codex plugin that turns early product ideas, live pages or screenshots into interactive prototypes, proposing a few visual directions before building. Also reviews user flows, researches user pain points and checks accessibility issues.

OpenAI's official Codex plugin that guides sequencing analysis from BCL/FASTQ: QC, RNA-seq differential expression, single-cell, variant calling and metagenomics, favoring nf-core and other public pipelines with reproducible run logs. Checks for local tools first. Research use only.

Creates, edits and validates reproducible Python and SQL Jupyter notebooks: organizes cells as reports or tutorials, checks conclusions against actual output and reruns top to bottom before handoff. Maintained by OpenAI in the Data Analytics plugin of openai/plugins.

OpenAI's official Codex plugin that uses the local API of the Zotero desktop app to search your library, export BibTeX, insert citations into LaTeX or Markdown drafts, and import new references after you confirm. Requires Zotero desktop.

Consensus's official Codex plugin: uses its remote MCP to search 220 million peer-reviewed papers for literature reviews, bibliographies, research gap analysis and cited writing. Needs a Consensus sign-in; the free tier returns a limited number of results.

OpenAI's official life-science skills: 49 skills query public databases such as UniProt, ClinVar, gnomAD and AlphaFold through Python scripts, with a router skill that breaks down questions, normalizes entities and compiles sourced evidence. Written mainly for Codex.

OpenAI's official Codex plugin that starts from a brief, product shots or references to generate marketing concepts, mood boards, product scenes, ad directions and social assets, compared and iterated on a reviewable board. Works with Figma and Canva.

Build with OpenAI best practices inside Codex: call the OpenAI API, build and deploy agents with the Agents SDK, create ChatGPT apps and prepare submission materials, and create API keys directly. Maintained by OpenAI; Codex only.

Adobe's official Codex plugin, listed in OpenAI's plugin marketplace: batch-edit and retouch photos by chat, build social graphics from Express templates, reformat landscape video into vertical shorts and search Creative Cloud assets. Try it as a guest; sign in for more features.

OpenAI's official Codex plugin with about 50 skills that route questions to genetics, omics, pathway, protein structure, chemistry and clinical evidence sources, can split the work across parallel subagents, and synthesize sourced conclusions.

OpenAI's official Codex plugin marketplace (openai-curated) with 60+ plugins such as Figma, Notion, GitHub, Stripe and Vercel, each bundling skills, MCP servers and app connections into one install.

Turns articles, reports, papers or notes into a .pptx of full-slide images with speaker notes, in 12 styles such as lectures and thesis defenses; slide text is not editable. Needs Python 3; uses Codex's built-in image generation, or an OpenAI-compatible image API key in Claude Code.

Scrapes web pages into Markdown or structured data, with full-site crawling, sitemaps, web search and interaction with dynamic pages. Maintained by Firecrawl; the cloud needs an API key (self-hosting is possible), and the keyless hosted endpoint only offers scrape, search and parse.

Open-source LLM evaluation platform: one opencompass command picks the model and datasets and runs the evaluation across hundreds of benchmarks. Works with local Hugging Face models and API models, with vLLM and LMDeploy for faster inference.

Turns a theme, a line, an article or photos into a minimal, whitespace-heavy indie-zine portrait poster, and can distill reusable style rules and prompts from reference images, with built-in quality checks. Needs host image generation (e.g. Codex); otherwise outputs prompts only.

Converts raster images like JPG and PNG to SVG, handling color tracing, black-and-white line art and unevenly lit scans, for vectorizing logos, illustrations and old drawings. The CLI is a 1.0 preview installed with cargo (needs Rust); a desktop app is also available.

Steers WebGL-heavy landing pages toward a chosen look by picking one of four visual lanes per page type, passing message, performance, accessibility and reliability gates, and outputting a lane, visual spec, stack, fallback and build order.

General guidance for building UI with Tailwind CSS: responsive and state variants, dark mode, sparing arbitrary values, components before @apply, and pitfalls such as dynamically built class names missing in production, with button and hero examples.

Builds or debugs interactive 3D web scenes with Three.js: scene, camera, renderer, lights, materials, GLTF loading and controls, plus performance basics like capping pixel ratio, handling resize, disposing WebGL resources and reduced motion.

Builds seamless infinite marquees for logos, testimonials, screenshots or tags by duplicating the item sequence and translating the track from 0 to -50%, with stable widths, faded edges, optional hover pause and reduced-motion handling.

Reveals headings and short copy word by word through an overflow mask as they scroll into view, using GSAP ScrollTrigger and a split helper that avoids the paid SplitText plugin, with aria-label, reduced-motion support and React cleanup.

Adds thin vertical guide lines at the content container edges plus small corner squares for a measured, structured layout, with CSS tokens and pseudo-element code that keeps guides behind content and out of pointer events.

Turns a fuzzy UI idea into a design-first prompt spec for UI generation: goal, format, layout, type system, color, imagery, exact copy, constraints and negative prompt, then iterates by changing one variable at a time.
