Tools

Docker's official MCP gateway (the docker mcp CLI plugin): runs servers from the Docker MCP Catalog in isolated containers, manages secrets, OAuth and tool toggles centrally, and gives multiple clients one endpoint. Built into Docker Desktop 4.59+; Docker CE and other setups must build the plugin.

Reads and writes Obsidian vaults from the terminal: search, view, create, edit, move and delete notes, and manage frontmatter and daily notes, without Obsidian running. Good for agents maintaining a personal knowledge base. Formerly Obsidian CLI.

Uses the Qdrant vector database as a semantic memory layer for agents: store information and retrieve it by meaning, connecting to a remote instance or a local path, with FastEmbed generating embeddings by default. Maintained by Qdrant.

HashiCorp's official server: looks up provider, module and policy docs in the Terraform Registry to help write IaC; with an HCP Terraform token it can also manage workspaces, variables and runs. Runs in Docker by default.

Audio plugin suite: transcription with local Qwen3-ASR or Whisper (MLX on Apple Silicon), speaker diarization, transcript correction, structured meeting notes and StepFun TTS. StepFun ASR and TTS need an API key.

A plugin marketplace with dozens of plugins: an enhanced skill-creator, scrapers for Bilibili, Douban and Feishu docs, China A-share news and US stock fundamentals, WeCom notifications, deep research and fact-checking, with docs in English and Chinese.

Connects LLMs to ROS and ROS 2 robots: publish and subscribe to topics, call services and actions, set parameters, and read sensor and robot state, without changing robot code. The robot side needs rosbridge running.

Manages a Microsoft 365 tenant with one m365 command: SharePoint, Teams, OneDrive, Outlook, Planner, Power Platform and more, with JSON output and JMESPath filtering. An open-source PnP community project, not officially supported by Microsoft; register an Entra app before signing in.

Community CLI for Feishu (Lark) focused on two-way conversion between Markdown and Feishu docs; also works with wikis, sheets, Bitable, messages, calendar, tasks and meeting notes, and ships 9 agent skills. Setup creates an app via QR scan; search and mail need extra user authorization.

Gives agents controlled access to MySQL: list databases and tables, inspect schemas and sample data, and run SQL, with multi-database mode, SSL and SSH tunnels. Configure your own database user, ideally with least privilege.

Reads, watches and sends iMessage and SMS on macOS: reads the local Messages database directly, sends through Messages.app, and outputs NDJSON and JSON-RPC for agents. Needs macOS 14+ and Full Disk Access granted to your terminal.

Local LLM-powered document translator for PDF, Word, Excel, EPUB, SRT subtitles and more; Word and Excel keep their formatting, glossaries can be built automatically, and agents can submit jobs via MCP. Needs uv and an OpenAI-compatible API key; translated PDFs lose the original layout.

Local transcription that's compatible with the OpenAI Whisper CLI but faster and lighter: outputs SRT/VTT subtitles or text and can transcribe a live microphone. Needs Python; models download on first run; speaker labels need pyannote.audio and a Hugging Face token.

Web search and page reading for agents through a self-hosted or trusted SearXNG metasearch instance, with no paid search API key. Requires a SearXNG instance with JSON output enabled.

Pulls new papers from Hugging Face Daily Papers and arXiv, scores them by research area into a recommendation page, and writes deep-read Obsidian notes for key ones; can also batch-read Zotero collections. Needs Python 3, Obsidian and poppler; copy the whole skills folder per the README.

MathWorks' official toolkit for reading, building, modifying and testing Simulink models via the MATLAB MCP server, with skills for control design, Simscape, code generation and compliance checks. Needs licensed MATLAB R2023a+ and Simulink; run the official installer in MATLAB first.

LangChain's official skill collection: framework selection, quickstarts, middleware, persistence, human-in-the-loop approval, RAG and eval design across LangChain, LangGraph and Deep Agents, in Python and TypeScript. Also installable as a Claude Code plugin. Still in early development.

Connects agents to live Jupyter notebooks: read, write, insert and execute cells and read multimodal outputs like charts, for interactive data analysis. Bring your own JupyterLab or JupyterHub; open source, maintained by Datalayer.

MathWorks' official toolkit: set up the MCP server via the MATLAB installer so agents can run code, run tests and do static checks; domain skill sets for signal processing, controls, statistics and machine learning install as Claude Code plugins. Needs MATLAB R2021a+.

Microsoft's official local MCP server for creating and editing Power BI semantic model tables, measures and relationships in natural language, running and validating DAX queries, and bulk renaming and translation. Connects to Power BI Desktop, Fabric or PBIP files; in public preview.

The standard machine translation scorer: computes BLEU, chrF and TER with significance tests and downloads public test sets such as WMT, to compare engines or prompts. Needs Python 3.9+ and reference translations; automatic metrics are a rough screen, so final copy still needs human review.

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.

Lets agents manage Google Calendar across multiple accounts and calendars: search, create, update and delete events, find free time, detect conflicts, and import events from images, PDFs or links. Needs your own Google Cloud OAuth credentials.

Salesforce's official plugin that helps service admins configure Service Cloud web chat, messaging, WhatsApp and Email-to-Case channels, connect Agentforce service agents to them and set up handoff to humans. Needs Salesforce org admin rights, a logged-in Salesforce CLI (sf) and Python.
