Tools

Lightweight OCR built on PaddleOCR models converted to ONNX, recognizing Chinese and English by default on CPU alone. The rapidocr CLI reads text from screenshots, photos and scanned page images. Needs Python; downloads models on first run, then works offline. Convert PDFs to images first.

Free remote MCP service that turns any GitHub repo or GitHub Pages site into a docs endpoint, so agents can read up-to-date docs and search code on demand and hallucinate fewer APIs. No sign-up or install; self-hosting is also possible.

Spec-driven project management for software: guides brainstorming into a PRD, breaks it into epics and dependent tasks synced as GitHub Issues, answers standup, next-step and blocker questions, and can dispatch several agents to code in parallel. Needs Git, an authenticated gh CLI and a GitHub repo.

asc CLI for scripting the App Store Connect API: manage builds, TestFlight, metadata, signing and review submissions to automate iOS and macOS releases from the terminal or CI. Ships with a companion agent skill pack. Needs an App Store Connect API key.

Turns Peng Sida's public research-writing notes into a skill: revises abstracts, introductions, methods and experiments of ML/CV/NLP papers from a reviewer's view, checks that each claim has experimental evidence, and runs a pre-submission self-check. Pure methodology, no API key.

Offline speech toolkit for Apple Silicon Macs: CLI text-to-speech (including Chinese and voice cloning) and speech-to-text, for voicing lessons and explainer videos or transcribing lectures and interviews, with data staying local. Needs an M-series Mac and Python 3.10+; MP3 export needs ffmpeg.

Moonshot AI's official terminal coding agent: reads and edits code, runs commands, searches files and fetches web pages, with video input, MCP, plugins, subagents and hooks, plus Zed and JetBrains integration via ACP. Needs a Kimi sign-in or Moonshot API key. Replaces the archived Kimi CLI.

HTTP client CLI that reimplements HTTPie's syntax in Rust with a focus on performance; key-value pairs on the command line are sent as JSON by default, making it quick to debug REST APIs.

Plugin marketplace from security firm Trail of Bits with 40+ plugins for code auditing, CodeQL/Semgrep static analysis, variant analysis, supply-chain risk, smart contract security and reverse engineering. Codex can load it directly too.

From Trail of Bits: reviews PRs, commits or diffs from a security angle, tracing history with git blame, estimating blast radius by caller count and checking test coverage gaps, then writes a Markdown review report.

Trail of Bits static analysis skills: CodeQL for interprocedural taint tracking and data-flow analysis, Semgrep for rule-based scanning, plus parsing and deduplicating SARIF results. Requires CodeQL or Semgrep installed locally.

Query, modify and convert JSON, YAML, TOML, XML, CSV, HCL, INI and more with one selector syntax, editing config files in place or converting between formats, handy for agents handling structured data in scripts. A single dependency-free binary that works much like jq or yq.

Diffusion model inference in pure C/C++: one sd-cli command runs SD, FLUX, Qwen Image, Wan and more locally to create or edit images and short videos, with Metal acceleration on Mac. No cloud needed; bring your own model weights and use a release binary or build from source.

OpenAI's official set of 18 web data visualization skills: chart selection and critique, D3, Canvas, Three.js, maps, statistical uncertainty, live dashboards, Gantt charts, UML and scrollytelling. Ships with a Codex plugin; installed alone, the plugin-level references are missing.
