Tools

Drafts, revises and reviews research manuscripts, tying every fact and number to verified evidence and covering reporting guidelines, authorship, AI disclosure and confidentiality; explicitly forbids fabricated citations or data. Includes offline check scripts; no API key needed.

Unified database lookup skill from K-Dense's scientific collection: reproducibly queries about 80 public database APIs such as PubChem, UniProt, ChEMBL, ClinicalTrials.gov and FRED, returning traceable results with endpoints, parameters and count checks. Some need API keys.

Systematic literature reviews following PRISMA and similar standards: searches PubMed, arXiv, bioRxiv and other databases, verifies each citation's DOI, and outputs Markdown and PDF in APA, Nature or other styles. Main web search uses parallel-cli and needs a Parallel account.

Teaches agents standard single-cell RNA-seq analysis with Scanpy: QC, normalization, PCA/UMAP, clustering, differential expression and plots, with ready-to-run pipeline scripts and guidance on converting Seurat and other R objects to h5ad. Needs Python 3.12+; by K-Dense.

Guides agents to the right statistical method for research data: t-tests, ANOVA, chi-square, regression and Bayesian analysis, checking assumptions, computing effect sizes and power, and reporting results in APA format. Python-based (pingouin, statsmodels); by K-Dense.

From Obsidian CEO Steph Ango (kepano): teaches agents to write Obsidian-flavored Markdown, Bases and Canvas files and work with vaults through the Obsidian CLI, plus skills like web page content extraction. Also installable into Codex and other agents via npx skills.

Teaches agents to read and write Obsidian vaults: Obsidian-flavored Markdown, Bases data views, JSON Canvas and the Obsidian CLI, plus Defuddle web content extraction and Knap template rendering. Maintained by Obsidian CEO kepano.

Microsoft's open-source AI quant investment research platform: the qrun command runs dataset building, model training, backtesting and evaluation from a YAML config, with many benchmark models. The official dataset is paused, so prepare market data per the README first.

Free, open-source offline OCR desktop app for screenshots, batch images, scanned PDFs and QR codes, callable via the umi-ocr CLI or an HTTP API (the CLI relies on the app's local HTTP service, on by default). Windows and Linux only.

Universal document converter between dozens of formats including Markdown, Word, HTML, LaTeX and EPUB, with templates, citations and Lua filters. PDF output uses LaTeX by default, which you install separately.

Turns common prompts such as summarizing, extracting insights and rewriting into reusable patterns you pipe text, web pages or YouTube transcripts through, using many model providers or local Ollama. Can also run as a REST API. Run fabric --setup first to configure models.

Engine for math and explainer animations in Python (Community Edition, ManimCE): write scenes and render them to video with the manim command, letting agents create teaching and science animations. On macOS install cairo and pkg-config first; formulas need LaTeX.

Personalized tutoring system from HKU's HKUDS: build a knowledge base from textbooks for Q&A, step-by-step solutions and quizzes, for teachers and self-learners. The deeptutor command outputs JSON for agents like Claude Code. Needs Python 3.11+, Node.js 20+ and an LLM API key.

Support and sales plugin with two subagents: one handles support replies, ticket triage and help docs; the other writes cold email sequences, follow-up cadences, quote templates and objection handling. Prompts only; no direct CRM connection.

Converts PDFs, images, PPTX, DOCX, XLSX, EPUB and more into Markdown, JSON or HTML, preserving tables, formulas and layout, with optional LLM help for higher accuracy. Needs Python 3.10+ and PyTorch; large-scale commercial use of the model weights needs a paid license.

Official Anthropic plugin that builds a shareable status page for big multi-track projects such as migrations, launches or research: goals, workstream order, next steps and risks; say 'refresh' to update the same link. Needs a claude.ai login; Artifacts are a beta for Team and Enterprise plans.

Official Anthropic plugin that solves competition math such as IMO and Putnam problems, with adversarial checks by an independent verifier that only sees the clean proof. Gives up explicitly rather than bluffing when unsure, and outputs LaTeX/PDF once verified.

Translates full PDF papers while preserving formulas, charts and layout (command pdf2zh), outputting monolingual and side-by-side bilingual PDFs. Uses Google Translate by default and can switch to DeepL, OpenAI and others; also runs as an MCP server.

Adds a searchable, copyable text layer to scanned PDFs, with automatic deskew, rotation and size optimization, outputting PDF/A by default. Built on Tesseract, supports 100+ languages and runs fully locally.

Distills technical books, doc folders or paper collections (PDF, EPUB, DOCX, Markdown and more) into an agent skill with a core framework, on-demand chapter files, glossary and cheat sheet for lookup while working. Extraction needs local Python; poppler or docling optional for PDFs.

Official CLI for Tencent's open-source knowledge base platform WeKnora: upload documents, manage knowledge bases, run hybrid search and answer questions from them, or serve as a read-only MCP. Needs your own WeKnora deployment and a source build with Go 1.26+.

Support persona skill for the gws CLI: triages support-labeled Gmail, turns emails into tasks, logs tickets in Google Sheets, escalates urgent issues to Chat and books follow-ups. Needs gws authorized via your own Google Cloud project plus its companion skills; not officially supported by Google.

Anthropic's official knowledge work plugin: one question searches your connected chat, email, cloud docs, wiki and project tools at once and returns a sourced answer; can also produce daily or weekly digests. Preset MCP connectors for Slack, Notion, Atlassian, Asana and more, each needing auth.

Support for small merchants: reads customer emails, checks orders and refunds in Stripe, PayPal, Square or Shopify, and drafts replies in the owner's voice per your refund policy; can refund via Stripe or Square after explicit approval. Works with pasted emails too. Official from Anthropic.
