Tools

OpenAI's official Codex plugin for answering product and business questions with data: metric anomaly diagnosis, KPI design, market sizing, dashboards and reports, notebooks and data quality checks. Connects to data warehouses and BI tools.

Security scans for a whole repo or for changes like PRs and commits, with threat modeling, vulnerability triage, fixes and re-verification; reports export to JSON, SARIF and more. OpenAI's official Codex plugin; requires Codex Security access.

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.

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.

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 Codex plugin for Google Calendar: summarize today's schedule, compare availability across people, prep for meetings, and create, edit or delete events. Requires signing in to Codex with ChatGPT and authorizing your Google account.

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.

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.

Anthropic's reference implementation for finding and fixing vulnerabilities: Claude Code skills for threat modeling, static scanning, triage and patching, plus an autonomous recon-to-patch pipeline (C/C++ memory bugs by default; needs Docker and gVisor). No longer maintained.

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.

Converts and two-way syncs Jupyter notebooks with plain Python scripts or Markdown, so agents can edit research and teaching notebooks like ordinary text and diffs stay readable. Needs a local Python environment; install with pip.

Cleans a LaTeX project before arXiv submission: removes comments, auxiliary files and unused .tex files and images, and can compress images, so internal notes are not published with the source. From Google Research; installable with Homebrew on macOS.

Python library and CLI for extracting main web content: fetches pages, crawls via sitemaps and RSS feeds, strips headers, footers and other noise, and outputs TXT, Markdown, JSON, XML and more with metadata. Also processes downloaded HTML offline.

Anthropic's official OS-level sandbox CLI: restricts file and network access for agents, MCP servers and any command without containers, using sandbox-exec on macOS and bubblewrap on Linux. Currently a research preview.

Static security analysis for CI/CD config: finds template injection, credential leaks, excessive permissions and more in GitHub Actions workflows, also covers Dependabot and pre-commit configs, and auto-fixes some findings.

Generates template-driven charts as single-file HTML: picks a chart from real Lupi, Basics, Glance, Maps and Interactive gallery implementations based on data shape, or fills one of 12 Chinese and English report templates. Defaults to Mono grayscale with semantic color presets. Written in Chinese.

Open-source alternative to NotebookLM's podcast feature: turns web pages, PDFs, images, YouTube videos or text into two-host conversational audio, useful for lecture notes or articles. Uses Gemini and OpenAI API keys by default, or local models plus free Edge TTS.

Unofficial CLI and MCP that let agents work with NotebookLM (now Gemini Notebook): bulk-import sources, ask questions with citations, and generate audio overviews, quizzes, flashcards, mind maps and slides. Uses undocumented APIs and may break; needs a Google sign-in and uv.

Unofficial nlm CLI and MCP server for NotebookLM (now Gemini Notebook): bulk-create notebooks, import web pages and docs, and generate audio overviews, quizzes, flashcards, mind maps and slides for teaching and study. Relies on undocumented APIs and a Google sign-in, so it may break.

Veteran suite of CSV command-line tools: in2csv converts Excel and JSON to CSV, csvcut, csvgrep and csvsort filter and sort, csvstat computes statistics, and csvsql runs SQL directly against CSV files.

Google's official skills for building ADK agents: dev workflow, scaffolding, the ADK Python API, evaluation with LLM judges and adaptive rubrics, deployment to Agent Runtime, Cloud Run or GKE, publishing and observability. Works with agents-cli; local dev needs only an AI Studio key.

Local neural text-to-speech engine that converts text to speech offline, with voices in dozens of languages, handy for listening materials or narrating articles and course slides. Needs Python; download a voice model before first use. The project is currently looking for maintainers.

250+ MCP tools for Ghidra: decompilation, cross-references, data-flow analysis, bulk renaming and commenting, P-code emulation and live debugging, with headless mode support. Requires Java 21 and Ghidra 12.1, and the plugin must be built and deployed first.
