Turns a topic or article into a narrated explainer video in English or Chinese: research, script, voiceover, storyboard and per-shot animation, with subtitles and chapter cards. Needs Node.js, ffmpeg and Python; takes about 1-3 hours depending on length. Free for non-commercial use only.

Search and download arXiv papers and read the authors' LaTeX source section by section, export BibTeX and follow topic updates, with papers cached locally. No API key needed.

Microsoft's official skill collection: 170+ skills focused on Azure SDKs (Python, .NET, TypeScript, Java, Rust) and Microsoft Foundry development, plus plugins, custom agents and MCP configs. Microsoft recommends picking skills per project rather than installing them all.

A job-search collection of 20 skills: ATS resume optimization, tailoring resumes to specific roles, cover letters, LinkedIn profile tuning, interview prep and salary negotiation.

Open-source local video editor with a multi-track timeline. Claude Code or Codex can rough-cut by chat, cut flubs and pauses from the transcript, and add subtitles, transitions and music as drafts you approve. Needs the desktop app with a project open; AI features need your own API keys.

Unified search across 20+ academic sources including arXiv, PubMed, bioRxiv, Semantic Scholar and OpenAlex, returning deduplicated, normalized results and downloading full text via open-access channels first. Most sources need no API key.

Postgres rules ranked by impact: query optimization, indexing, connection pooling, RLS security, schema design and lock troubleshooting, with wrong-vs-right SQL examples, applicable to any Postgres. Maintained by Supabase.

Replaces arXiv preprint entries in your .bib file with the official published versions from DBLP and ACL Anthology, keeping citation keys, to tidy references before camera-ready. Overwrites the file by default, so preview with --dry-run. Mainly covers CS venues; needs Python 3.10+.

Open-source, agent-friendly BI: define metrics and dashboards in YAML and SQL, and rill init generates project instructions and MCP config for Claude Code so agents can build business dashboards and answer questions in natural language. Local use is free; publishing to Rill Cloud needs an account.

From a single topic, the agent writes a storyboard, generates paper-cutout collage visuals, motion, narration, music and subtitles, and assembles a Vox-style explainer or ad with ffmpeg, checking with you on storyboard and style. Needs a prepaid Atlas Cloud API key, ffmpeg and Python.

Bright Data's official MCP: web search (Google, Bing, Yandex), any page to Markdown, structured data extraction from e-commerce, social and other platforms, and remote browser control. Needs an API token; includes 5,000 free requests a month.

LLM translator for novels, subtitles, ebooks and game text: one-click glossaries keep names consistent and translations get auto-reviewed. Besides the desktop app it has a CLI (translate/analyze, JSONL status). Download from Releases and bring an LLM API; commercial use needs the author's OK.

Runs open image models like FLUX, Qwen Image and Z-Image locally on a Mac: text-to-image, reference-based edits, inpainting and upscaling, all on-device. Needs Apple Silicon and uv; the first run downloads models and is slow. Check each model's license before commercial use.

Translates whole EPUB books, Word files, SRT subtitles and TXT with local Ollama or cloud LLMs (OpenAI, Gemini, DeepSeek), keeping layout and timings. Builds a glossary for consistent terms and can resume jobs. Mainly a desktop app; the CLI runs from source; cloud models need an API key.

The HR department of headcount's company-style agent org: 12 skills for org design, hiring, pay and levels, performance, employee relations, compliance, benefits and leave, on/offboarding, payroll, workforce planning and training. No account needed; have HR or a lawyer check compliance.

A video production workspace for Claude Code: scripting, AI voiceover, music, generated visuals and Remotion rendering to MP4, with explainer and product-demo templates. The full workflow needs the cloned repo and Node.js 18+; AI generation needs your own cloud GPU (e.g. Modal's free tier).

Four tools for real-time web search, page content extraction, site mapping and full-site crawling, available as a remote server or run locally. Maintained by Tavily; needs an API key or OAuth sign-in, and a free account is available.

Terraform and OpenTofu best practices from Anton Babenko: diagnoses the failure mode first, then guides testing, module structure, state management, CI/CD and security scanning. Works for AWS, Azure and GCP.

Open-source video editing API and MCP server: add video, audio, subtitles, stickers, effects and keyframe animation, then generate drafts you can open and keep editing in CapCut or JianYing. Requires running the Python service locally and installing FFmpeg.

A native Go MCP server for Kubernetes and OpenShift: talks to the API server directly to create, read, update and delete any resource, view pod logs, exec commands and install Helm charts, without needing kubectl. Supports multiple clusters.

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 Freshservice CLI built with Printing Press: lets AI check an IT agent's queue, flag tickets near SLA breach, search tickets and the knowledge base, gauge team workload, spot recurring issues and KB gaps, and manage changes and assets. Needs a Freshservice account and API key.

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.
