Anthropic's official OS-level sandbox CLI: restricts file and network access for agents, MCP servers and any command without containers, using sandbox-exec on macOS and bubblewrap on Linux. Currently a research preview.

Uses a Figma plugin and a local WebSocket server so agents can read and directly edit designs: create frames and text, adjust auto layout and styles, and replace copy in bulk. Requires Bun; now maintained by Grab.

Static security analysis for CI/CD config: finds template injection, credential leaks, excessive permissions and more in GitHub Actions workflows, also covers Dependabot and pre-commit configs, and auto-fixes some findings.

Generates template-driven charts as single-file HTML: picks a chart from real Lupi, Basics, Glance, Maps and Interactive gallery implementations based on data shape, or fills one of 12 Chinese and English report templates. Defaults to Mono grayscale with semantic color presets. Written in Chinese.

Open-source alternative to NotebookLM's podcast feature: turns web pages, PDFs, images, YouTube videos or text into two-host conversational audio, useful for lecture notes or articles. Uses Gemini and OpenAI API keys by default, or local models plus free Edge TTS.

One command extracts or summarizes web pages, PDFs, YouTube videos, podcasts and media files, with JSON output. Summaries can use many model APIs, local models or a logged-in Codex or Claude CLI; plain extraction needs no key. Also has a browser sidebar extension.

14 n8n workflow skills: expression syntax, MCP tool usage, node configuration, validation and troubleshooting, Code nodes, AI Agent workflows and self-hosted n8n deployment. Meant to be used with the n8n-mcp server.

Unofficial CLI and MCP that let agents work with NotebookLM (now Gemini Notebook): bulk-import sources, ask questions with citations, and generate audio overviews, quizzes, flashcards, mind maps and slides. Uses undocumented APIs and may break; needs a Google sign-in and uv.

Unofficial nlm CLI and MCP server for NotebookLM (now Gemini Notebook): bulk-create notebooks, import web pages and docs, and generate audio overviews, quizzes, flashcards, mind maps and slides for teaching and study. Relies on undocumented APIs and a Google sign-in, so it may break.

Veteran suite of CSV command-line tools: in2csv converts Excel and JSON to CSV, csvcut, csvgrep and csvsort filter and sort, csvstat computes statistics, and csvsql runs SQL directly against CSV files.

Google's official skills for building ADK agents: dev workflow, scaffolding, the ADK Python API, evaluation with LLM judges and adaptive rubrics, deployment to Agent Runtime, Cloud Run or GKE, publishing and observability. Works with agents-cli; local dev needs only an AI Studio key.

Local neural text-to-speech engine that converts text to speech offline, with voices in dozens of languages, handy for listening materials or narrating articles and course slides. Needs Python; download a voice model before first use. The project is currently looking for maintainers.

Fixes defensive academic writing full of hedging and preemptive disclaimers, organizing abstract, introduction, experiments and conclusion around your strongest contribution. Also helps trim length and self-check before a rebuttal. English and Chinese versions, plus a prompt for any AI chat.

Posit's open-source scientific and technical publishing system built on Pandoc: embed Python, R or Julia code in Markdown or Jupyter notebooks, then quarto render produces HTML, PDF, Word, slides, websites and books.

Veteran command-line task manager with projects, tags, priorities, due dates and custom reports, JSON export, and a rich ecosystem of hooks and extensions, well suited for agents that record and track tasks.

Docker's official CLI for building images, running and managing containers, viewing logs and pushing to registries, a foundational tool for agents setting up isolated environments. Needs a local or remote Docker Engine such as Docker Desktop.

Community-maintained MCP for Jira and Confluence: search with JQL/CQL and create or update issues, pages and comments. Supports both Cloud and Server/Data Center deployments; needs an API token or personal access token.

Full-featured Jira CLI: filter, create, transition, assign and link issues and manage epics and sprints, with --plain text output that agents can read. Works with Cloud and self-hosted Jira; set up an API token and run jira init.

Reference for pnpm 12: CLI, pnpm-workspace.yaml settings, monorepo workspaces, catalogs, overrides, patches, supply-chain settings such as build approval, task orchestration, CI setup and migration from npm, Yarn or older pnpm. Generated by Anthony Fu from the official docs.

Semi-automated research assistant for CS and AI researchers that links ideation, Zotero literature management, experiment analysis and reporting, paper writing and reviewer responses, and keeps project knowledge in Obsidian. Branches for Codex and other agents exist.

Semi-automated research workflow for computer science and AI researchers: ideation, Zotero literature management, experiment analysis and reports, paper writing and polishing, and rebuttals, with optional Obsidian knowledge base. 40+ skills; also installable as a Claude Code plugin.

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.

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.

Turns any codebase into an interactive browser course: real code with plain-language explanations, animations, hover glossaries and scenario quizzes. Built for people who build software with AI but can't read code, and useful for intro programming classes. Needs only an agent and the repo.
