Tools

Uses hooks to enforce test-driven development in Claude Code: blocks implementation without a failing test, prevents code beyond what tests require, and can use lint results to push refactoring. Needs Node.js 22+. Still maintained, but the author suggests its successor Probity for new projects.

MiniMax's official CLI, built for agents: chat with MiniMax models from the terminal and generate images, video and speech, plus speech transcription, image understanding and web search. Works with the international platform. Requires a MiniMax Token Plan subscription.

A CLI and Python library by Simon Willison: imports JSON and CSV straight into SQLite with automatic table creation, runs in-memory SQL queries over files, and supports full-text search and table transformations.

Unofficial Intercom CLI built with Printing Press, covering the full REST API: sync conversations and contacts for offline search, bulk-tag conversations about one incident, see customer overviews and SLA reports, and pull or push help articles. US, EU and AU regions; needs an access token.

Self-hostable long-term memory for agents, offering MCP, a REST API and a web dashboard: semantic search, knowledge graph and automatic memory consolidation. Embeddings are computed locally; choose SQLite, Cloudflare or Milvus as the backend.

Fetches US, Hong Kong and China A-share stock data with zero runtime dependencies: real-time quotes, daily, weekly and monthly candles and search as JSON, falling back across Tencent, Sina and Eastmoney sources. Also runs as an MCP server. Unofficial public APIs, no stability guarantee.

A three-stage workflow for math modeling contests like MCM/ICM and CUMCM: analysis, solving and plotting in Python or MATLAB, and a Word (optionally LaTeX) paper, with stage-check subagents and OpenAlex plus AnySearch literature search. Generated papers are for reference only.

German-language HR plugin for German startups of about 100 people: employment contracts, DATEV payroll handoff, personnel files and data protection, AGG complaints, works councils, absences, benefits and dismissals under German labor law. German law only; have a lawyer or HR pro review.

MathWorks' official server that lets agents start your local MATLAB, write and run scripts and unit tests, and check code style and potential errors, for computing, simulation and data analysis. Needs a licensed MATLAB R2021a+ and the downloaded server binary.

Recommends daily papers from arXiv and Semantic Scholar by research interest, reads them and writes illustrated Obsidian notes and a paper graph; can also search venues like CVPR and NeurIPS. Needs Python 3, Obsidian, a vault path and an interests config; the web app needs an Anthropic API key.

From Harvard Medical School's Zitnik Lab: one MCP connecting 1,000+ scientific tools and databases for drugs and targets, genes and proteins, clinical trials, FDA data and PubMed, for biomedical and drug research. Runs with uv; some sources need API keys; medical conclusions need expert review.

Econometrician Pedro Sant'Anna's academic Claude Code setup (fork the repo to use it): Beamer/Quarto lecture slides, paper review and mock refereeing, R/Python analysis and replication packages, with specialist subagents and quality gates. Needs Git and Python; slides need XeLaTeX and Quarto.

Uses the Qdrant vector database as a semantic memory layer for agents: store information and retrieve it by meaning, connecting to a remote instance or a local path, with FastEmbed generating embeddings by default. Maintained by Qdrant.

People-management skill pack for managers and HR with 7 skills: performance reviews, performance improvement plans (PIPs), 360-degree feedback surveys, interview scorecards, team health checks, team offsites and a 90-day plan for new managers. Text-only; no account or API key.

HR skills plugin: write inclusive job descriptions, build 30/60/90-day onboarding plans, design and analyze engagement surveys, and plan redundancy consultations (UK employment law by default) and organizational change. Text-only, no account; have legal or senior HR review redundancy plans.

Recruiting and sourcing skills: generate Boolean and X-ray search strings, plan sourcing strategy and draft candidate outreach, plus interview question banks, scorecards, reference-check scripts and offer letters, with an emphasis on structured, fair evaluation. Text-only; no account needed.

Connects LLMs to ROS and ROS 2 robots: publish and subscribe to topics, call services and actions, set parameters, and read sensor and robot state, without changing robot code. The robot side needs rosbridge running.

Lets Claude Code watch videos: extracts frames with ffmpeg and transcribes timestamped audio from local files or YouTube links, to review footage, summarize lectures or find on-screen text. Needs Node.js 20+ and ffmpeg (yt-dlp for YouTube); transcribe with local Whisper or a Gemini/OpenAI key.

Helps managers and HR partners prepare tough performance feedback: frameworks like GAIN and Radical Candor, turning judgments into observable facts, role-playing the conversation, and planning follow-up. Distilled from Lenny's Podcast and Newsletter guests; prompt-only, no account needed.

76 product skills distilled from Lenny's Podcast and Newsletter, covering product strategy, prioritization, user interviews, PRD writing, OKRs, launches and growth, hiring and team management. Each includes frameworks, checklists and templates, with verified quotes. Docs only, no account.

Hiring lessons from 21 Lenny's Podcast and Newsletter guests on recruiting product managers and engineers: defining the role, sourcing through networks, assessing potential and closing offers, with frameworks and question lists. Methodology-focused, for recruiters and hiring managers.

Collects hiring advice from dozens of Lenny's Podcast and Newsletter guests to help you design realistic work samples or paid trials, shared rubrics and solid reference checks, instead of hiring on interview polish and resumes. Geared to product and tech teams; prompt-only, no account.

Gives agents controlled access to MySQL: list databases and tables, inspect schemas and sample data, and run SQL, with multi-database mode, SSL and SSH tunnels. Configure your own database user, ideally with least privilege.

Pulls new papers from Hugging Face Daily Papers and arXiv, scores them by research area into a recommendation page, and writes deep-read Obsidian notes for key ones; can also batch-read Zotero collections. Needs Python 3, Obsidian and poppler; copy the whole skills folder per the README.
