Tools

Connects to your local or cloud Zotero library: search by title, full text or semantics, read PDFs and annotations, add items by DOI and organize collections. Needs Python 3.10+; for local mode, enable the local API in Zotero settings first.

Automatically cuts silent or static parts from video and audio based on loudness or motion, with adjustable margins and speed changes, and exports project files for Premiere, DaVinci Resolve, Final Cut Pro and other editors. The repo ships an agent skill.

draw.io's official MCP: opens XML, CSV or Mermaid diagrams generated by the agent directly in the draw.io editor, good for flowcharts and architecture diagrams. A no-install remote version can also render diagrams inline in the chat.

Lossy PNG compression CLI: converts images to 8-bit PNGs that keep transparency, usually 60-80% smaller, with batch processing and a quality range setting. Handy for slimming down web assets, slides and article images. Install via Homebrew on macOS; no account.

Interviews you to design an agentic control loop for your codebase in control-theory terms: a set point, a sensor built from existing tooling, a controller that picks small low-risk changes, and a coding agent that opens PRs. Builds each part to run locally before wiring a scheduled CI workflow.

Turns a repeatable agent task into a repo-local skill plus a GitHub Actions workflow that runs a coding agent (Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode or CodeLayer) on a schedule, with a prompt, memory file and one-open-PR bound. Reads the repo first, then walks you through cadence, scope and validation.

High-quality GIF encoder built on pngquant: turns video frames or PNG sequences into animations, using cross-frame palettes and temporal dithering for thousands of colors per frame. Can take video piped straight from ffmpeg.

GitHub's official gh extension for writing Actions workflows in Markdown that AI agents execute, compiled into standard Actions. Choose engines like Copilot, Claude Code or Codex; runs in a read-only sandbox by default. Requires gh.

Audits and rewrites AI-sounding prose: detects stock phrases using 70+ pattern categories and a tiered replacement word list, with detect-only, rewrite and in-place edit modes and optional voice settings. Rules are calibrated for English.

Detects shot changes in video and splits long footage into scenes, exporting cut lists and per-scene thumbnails, useful for shot analysis, organizing footage and finding edit points. Runs locally; needs Python 3.10+, plus FFmpeg or mkvmerge for splitting.

LM Studio's official CLI: list, load and unload local models, start and stop the local API server, and check status and logs; ls, ps and other commands support --json output for scripts and agents. Requires the LM Studio desktop app.

Local FFmpeg video editing skill: ask in plain language to cut and join clips, remove silence, reframe to vertical, add subtitles, normalize loudness and export to TikTok, Reels or YouTube specs, fully offline with no API key. Needs ffmpeg and Python 3; also usable as an MCP.

Self-contained modern TeX/LaTeX engine based on XeTeX and TeX Live that downloads and caches support files on first build, compiling .tex to PDF in one command without installing a full TeX distribution.

From ISCAS's Chinese Information Processing Lab: Claude Code or Codex write slides from your brief, render each page to check layout, and export an editable PPTX, for lectures and academic talks. Needs macOS, Linux or WSL with Python (uv), npm and LibreOffice; install per the README.

Gives agents Exa web search and page content fetching, with an optional multi-step research agent and advanced filtered search. Maintained by Exa; the hosted service works anonymously with limits, and signing in or adding an API key raises them.

WordPress's official CLI: install and update plugins and themes, manage posts and users, import and export content, run database search-replace and configure multisite from the terminal, without opening wp-admin. Requires PHP 7.2.24 or later.

CLI and TypeScript runtime for discovering and calling MCP servers from the terminal and scripts: list tool signatures and call tools directly, or generate a standalone CLI or typed client from a server. Auto-imports existing MCP configs from Claude Code, Codex and others.

Empirical social science skills from Stanford REAP and CoPaper.AI, bundling 77 in-house and third-party collections: topic selection, literature reviews, DID/RD/IV identification, regression tables in Python, Stata or R, robustness audits and paper writing. Stata flows need Stata installed.

Draws bar charts, histograms, line charts, scatter plots and box plots in the terminal from CSV/TSV on stdin, so you can glance at data distributions at the end of a shell pipeline. The command is uplot.

Read-only mirror of the community plugin marketplace maintained by Anthropic, with 2,000+ community plugins that passed submission review and automated security scans, for Claude Code and Claude Cowork.

Notion's official self-hosted MCP: uses an integration token to search, read and write pages and data sources, and can read and edit pages as Markdown. Notion now recommends its hosted Remote Notion MCP, and this repo is no longer actively maintained.

Microsoft's official Azure CLI (az) for managing VMs, storage, resource groups and other Azure resources, with JMESPath queries, table or JSON output and clear exit codes for scripting. Run az login first.

Moves files to the trash instead of deleting them, with commands to list, restore and empty trashed files, so anything an agent deletes by mistake can be recovered. Follows the FreeDesktop.org trash spec and shares the trash with GNOME and KDE.

English prose linter that turns usage guides such as Garner's and advice from great writers into rules, flagging clichés, redundancy, bad comparisons and usage errors line by line, with JSON output for agents. Runs locally with Python; English only.
