Tools

100+ tools that let agents drive COMSOL Multiphysics: build models, set geometry and physics (heat transfer, fluids, electrostatics, solid mechanics), mesh, solve and export results; the accompanying paper is in Neurocomputing. Needs licensed COMSOL 5.x/6.x, Python and Java; install from the repo.

Plotting skills for academic papers: bar, line, scatter, radar and other styles distilled from 9 real paper figures. Plot your own data in a chosen style as 300 dpi figures, or reproduce a matplotlib script from a paper screenshot. Needs local Python and matplotlib.

Jina AI's official remote MCP: converts web pages and PDFs to Markdown, searches the web, arXiv, SSRN and images, and offers screenshots, reranking and semantic dedup. Reading tools work without a key (rate-limited); search and rerank need a Jina API key.

Runs SQL queries against ClickHouse and browses databases and table schemas, read-only by default; can also enable embedded chDB to query data directly in files and URLs. Maintained by ClickHouse.

Drives desktop Excel on Windows: refresh Power Query, build pivot tables and charts, evaluate DAX and run VBA while keeping existing formulas and formatting, so finance and admin staff can automate existing reports. Needs Windows, Excel 2016+ and Node.js; no macOS.

Unofficial Yahoo Finance data tool with a yahoo-finance CLI, an MCP server and an agent skill: stock quotes, price history, financials, option chains and analyst ratings. Needs Node.js 22+, no API key. The API is unofficial and may change; for research only.

The Docling project's official MCP: converts PDF, Word, PowerPoint and more into structured documents with layout and table detection and OCR for scans, and lets agents build new documents paragraph by paragraph and export Markdown. Local mode needs Python and uv, or use your own Docling Serve.

Unbabel's machine-translation quality metric: comet-score rates translations per sentence and overall, XCOMET marks error spans and severity, and CometKiwi works without a reference. Good for spot-checking MT. Needs Python 3.8+; models download from Hugging Face, some need a license; GPU helps.

dbt Labs' official plugin marketplace with dbt and dbt-migration plugins: write models and unit tests, build semantic-layer metrics, govern with dbt Mesh, debug failed jobs, and handle version upgrades and cross-platform migrations. Most skills need an existing dbt project.

dbt Labs' official skills: write and edit dbt models, add unit tests and docs, set up the MetricFlow semantic layer, debug failed jobs, and handle dbt version upgrades and cross-platform migrations. Most skills need dbt installed and an existing project.

A research plugin for Claude Code: commands like /omp:survey, /omp:experiment and /omp:write chain literature review, topic selection, experiments, writing and self-review, with 5 specialized agents and 34 research skills that remember project progress across sessions. Experiments lean toward ML.

Stock analysis MCP for individual investors: quotes via yfinance, technical indicators such as RSI and MACD, screening strategies, a portfolio tracker and a trade journal. Core tools need no API key; backtesting and deep-research extensions are optional.

The five-agent PaperOrchestra pipeline (outline, figures, literature review, section writing, polishing) as skills: turns research ideas, experiment logs and a conference template into a LaTeX paper and checks citations via Semantic Scholar. Needs Python; verify the draft yourself.

Helps agents write geospatial SQL for PostGIS, DuckDB, BigQuery and Snowflake: inspect schemas and keep query costs in check, then render results as interactive maps to review and correct. Needs Python and your own database or warehouse; maps use Dekart, which can run locally in Docker.

Official Firecrawl skill: drives the Firecrawl CLI to search, scrape, map site URLs, batch-crawl, interact with pages and monitor changes, returning LLM-ready Markdown. Search and scrape have a rate-limited free tier; crawling and monitoring need an account or self-hosted instance.

Firecrawl's official CLI: scrape, search, map and crawl sites and interact with pages in a browser from the terminal, with Markdown output; can also install companion skills for coding agents. Needs a Firecrawl account or API key, or point it at a self-hosted instance.

Searches about 30 biomedical sources, including PubMed, ClinicalTrials.gov, ClinVar and OncoKB, with one command syntax, covering literature, clinical trials, genetic variants, drugs and pathways. Ships as both a CLI and an MCP server.

Anthropic's official life sciences plugin marketplace: install MCP plugins such as PubMed, BioRender, Synapse, ChEMBL and 10x Genomics, plus research skills for single-cell RNA QC, Nextflow pipelines and scvi-tools. Some data sources need an account or subscription.

Lets AI draw lines, create layers, insert blocks, add dimensions and export DXF or PDF in AutoCAD LT, for batch edits. Needs AutoCAD LT 2024+ on Windows, Python and uv; after cloning, load the bundled LISP script with APPLOAD. Can also generate DXF headlessly without AutoCAD.

Redis's official MCP server: read and write strings, hashes, lists, streams, JSON and other data structures in natural language, with vector indexing and search and pub/sub. Bring your own Redis instance; runs via uvx.

Lets agents read dbt project models, lineage and Semantic Layer metrics, run build, run and test commands, and call the dbt platform Discovery and Admin APIs. Maintained by dbt Labs; Semantic Layer and platform tools need a dbt platform account.

DAIR.AI Academy lesson-planning plugin: from a topic or source material, builds an interactive mini-course of 6-8 lessons, each with goals, flashcards and a quiz, plus a final review, citing sources when you supply material. Output is local HTML; no server or account needed.

Official DuckDB skills: query local or S3 CSV, Parquet, Excel and JSON files with SQL or plain language, attach databases, convert formats, analyze spatial data and look up documentation. Needs the DuckDB CLI; tested only on macOS and Linux.

Elastic's official skills teaching agents to use Elasticsearch and Kibana correctly: index design, ES|QL queries, search relevance tuning, dashboards, observability troubleshooting and security alert triage. Currently a technical preview.
