Tools

Pre-submission review for CS conference papers (CVPR, ACL, NeurIPS and more): polish, translate or condense on request, or let AI reviewers raise issues and a jury rule on them. Only wording fixes are drafted, with your approval; missing experiments go back to you, never invented. Needs Node.js.

Connects Rhino 8 and Grasshopper to agents: model in plain language, edit geometry and layers, measure areas and volumes, and build Grasshopper definitions, for architecture and product design. Install the rhinomcp plugin in Rhino, run mcpstart, and have uv installed. Unofficial (not McNeel).

Plain-text spaced repetition: Q&A and cloze cards live in Markdown files, agents can draft decks from notes or textbooks and validate them with hashcards check, and hashcards drill runs FSRS reviews in your browser. Install with cargo or grab a macOS, Linux or Windows release.

Connects agents to MongoDB and Atlas: query, aggregate, inspect collection schemas and indexes, and manage Atlas clusters, projects and database users. Maintained by MongoDB; needs a connection string or an Atlas service account; supports read-only mode.

Connects the QGIS desktop GIS to Claude: create and save projects, load vector and raster layers, run Processing toolbox algorithms, export maps and execute PyQGIS code through chat. Needs QGIS 3 and uv; download the repo, copy the plugin into QGIS's plugin folder and start the server.

Google's official Gemini CLI extension with a built-in MCP server: Nano Banana image generation and editing, photo restoration, icons, textures, step-by-step storyboards and diagrams. Needs Node.js and a Gemini API key; for Claude Code or Codex, clone and build the repo first.

Turns ComfyUI workflows into MCP tools with no code, covering generation and conversion across text, image, speech and video; works with local ComfyUI or RunningHub in the cloud. Start the server with uvx pixelle and configure an LLM first.

Cleans up BibTeX bibliographies: normalizes field formatting and indentation, sorts entries, merges or removes duplicates and strips chosen fields, rewriting the .bib in place or printing to stdout; also works as a pre-commit hook. Needs Node.js.

Turns product info, packaging and reference images into a visual plan designers or image models can execute: per-image layouts for main images, detail pages, listings and A+ content, in-image copy and prompts. Keeps an evidence log and checks ad-law risk; covers Amazon, Taobao, JD and more.

A Pandoc filter that numbers figures, tables, equations and sections and builds cross-references, so numbering stays right when you write papers or reports in Markdown and convert to Word, PDF or HTML. Needs a matching Pandoc version; Homebrew on macOS installs a compatible Pandoc too.

Converts PDF, Word, PowerPoint, Excel, EPUB, web pages and images to clean Markdown locally, keeping page anchors, tables and two-column reading order, with full-text search across folders. Formerly pdf-reader-mcp; no uploads, no API key. Needs Node.js 18+; OCR for scans needs tesseract.

Checks spelling, grammar and formatting in LaTeX and Markdown sources (e.g. figures never referenced), mapping each issue back to the source line, with optional HTML reports. Grammar checks use LanguageTool and support English, German, French and more; Homebrew on macOS bundles Java.

ComfyUI's official CLI: install and launch ComfyUI in one step, manage custom nodes and model downloads, and run image and video workflows, with --json output on every command for agents. Can also submit jobs to paid Comfy Cloud.

Turns senior designer judgment into 74 rules and 23 skills: first lock your project's colors, type, radii and motion, then loop render, score and revise, reworking anything under 80. For Claude Code, Codex and Cursor; needs Node.js and a local frontend project. Scores don't replace human review.

Lets coding agents read your codebase, extract a design system, then generate UI mockups, slide decks, posters and other marketing visuals on Superdesign's infinite canvas and iterate in branches. Needs @superdesign/cli and a Superdesign account; free to start.

Graph database MCP server from Neo4j Labs: reads the graph schema and runs read and write Cypher queries, with read-only mode, query timeouts and response token limits. Needs a Neo4j instance with the APOC plugin enabled.

Lets agents create pixel art and frame animations in Aseprite: drawing, layers, palettes, dithering, outlines and onion-skin previews, with PNG, GIF and sprite sheet export, for game art and pixel illustration. Needs Aseprite, Python 3.13 and uv; runs from source.

Turns Manim animations into step-through slide decks: mark slide breaks in scene code, render, then present with manim-slides or export to HTML, PDF or PPTX, for math and science classes and talks. Scenes are Python (agents can write them); needs Manim, plus LaTeX for formulas.

165 teaching skills grounded in learning-science research, covering course design, lesson planning, assessment, classroom questioning and student self-study coaching, for teachers and instructional designers. Install all at once as a Claude Code or Codex plugin, or copy them one by one.

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.

Companion skill to the User Interface Wiki: 152 rules in 12 categories, from motion, easing and exit animations to UI sounds, interaction laws, prefetching and typography, for writing or reviewing web UI code, with issues listed by file:line. Needs an existing web project and Node.js to install.

Translates articles between Chinese and English or Chinese and Japanese (not English-Japanese) in four steps: analysis, draft, review and final, with options for target audience, style and glossary, aiming for natural-sounding output. No account or API key; URLs are fetched via r.jina.ai.

Answers macro questions with market data: combines 13 free sources including Polymarket and Kalshi prediction markets, US Treasury yields, CFTC positioning, SEC insider trades and A-share fund flows into probability estimates, reasoning and scenarios. No API key; needs uv. Not investment advice.
