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.

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.

Generates product shots, marketing posters and illustrations, removes or swaps backgrounds, upscales and makes videos, with 1,400+ prompt templates and parallel variations. Cloud use needs a MeiGen account and paid credits; the npm version can use OpenAI-compatible APIs or local ComfyUI.

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.

Turns secondary-school math and science problems into teaching materials: interactive geometry solution pages, 3D molecular views of chemical reactions, and math explainer videos with Chinese voiceover and bilingual subtitles (needs a Zhipu GLM-TTS key). Requires Python sympy.

Official skill for BaoCut, a subtitle app by Baoyu: transcribe audio and video, generate and translate subtitles, check speakers, adjust timing and export SRT or finished video. Needs BaoCut on an Apple silicon Mac (macOS 14+); on Windows the skill fetches a preview CLI.

Translates a video's SRT subtitles into other languages and generates AI voice lines synced to the timings, producing translated subtitles and dubbed audio tracks. Needs Python, FFmpeg and Google Cloud, Azure, DeepL or ElevenLabs API keys; configure the ini files, then run python main.py.

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.

Lets agents drive WinDbg's CDB/KD to analyze crash dumps, debug user-mode processes remotely and debug kernels, and triage many dumps in a batch. Windows only; requires WinDbg or Debugging Tools for Windows.

MiniMax's official MCP: text-to-speech, voice cloning and voice design, text-to-image and video generation. Needs a MiniMax API key; the key and API host must belong to the same region (global or mainland China). Pay as you go.

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.

Batch-normalizes audio and video loudness to standards like EBU R128, with presets for podcasts, music and streaming video; handy for evening out course recordings, podcasts and videos before publishing. Needs FFmpeg and Python 3.10+.

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.

Audio plugin suite: transcription with local Qwen3-ASR or Whisper (MLX on Apple Silicon), speaker diarization, transcript correction, structured meeting notes and StepFun TTS. StepFun ASR and TTS need an API key.

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.

Stem separation CLI built on UVR models: splits audio into vocals and accompaniment in one command, isolates drums, bass and other stems, or removes noise and reverb; handy for stripping background music or extracting clean vocals. Models download on first use; needs Python and FFmpeg.

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.

Generates book covers, movie posters, article covers and social images from one sentence, picking colors and composition from 30+ poster masters' styles to suit the subject. Rendering directly needs Python and a PipeLLM image API key; or just generate prompts for another image tool.

Local transcription that's compatible with the OpenAI Whisper CLI but faster and lighter: outputs SRT/VTT subtitles or text and can transcribe a live microphone. Needs Python; models download on first run; speaker labels need pyannote.audio and a Hugging Face token.

X's (formerly Twitter) official API command-line tool. Once authorized, agents can post for you, upload images and video, and query post and account data; it can also run as an MCP server for Claude. Needs an X developer account and app; the X API is pay-per-use, so buy credits first.

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.

MathWorks' official toolkit for reading, building, modifying and testing Simulink models via the MATLAB MCP server, with skills for control design, Simscape, code generation and compliance checks. Needs licensed MATLAB R2023a+ and Simulink; run the official installer in MATLAB first.

LangChain's official skill collection: framework selection, quickstarts, middleware, persistence, human-in-the-loop approval, RAG and eval design across LangChain, LangGraph and Deep Agents, in Python and TypeScript. Also installable as a Claude Code plugin. Still in early development.
