Tools

Unified search across 20+ academic sources including arXiv, PubMed, bioRxiv, Semantic Scholar and OpenAlex, returning deduplicated, normalized results and downloading full text via open-access channels first. Most sources need no API key.

Replaces arXiv preprint entries in your .bib file with the official published versions from DBLP and ACL Anthology, keeping citation keys, to tidy references before camera-ready. Overwrites the file by default, so preview with --dry-run. Mainly covers CS venues; needs Python 3.10+.

A JADX decompiler plugin plus companion MCP server that lets agents read an APK's classes, methods, Smali and resources to assist Android reverse engineering and vulnerability hunting. Requires JADX-GUI and uv.

Converts PDF, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, images, audio, web pages and YouTube transcripts into Markdown that agents can read and cite. Built on Microsoft MarkItDown; the Docker image lacks audio transcription and image recognition, so build locally for full features.

Open-source meeting bot and real-time transcription platform: sends a bot into Google Meet, Teams or Zoom and transcribes live by speaker, with MCP so agents can dispatch bots and read transcripts. Use the hosted service (API key) or self-host.

WhatsApp CLI: pair as a linked device, sync messages to local SQLite, search offline, send text and files, and manage groups, with --json output for agents. Built on the unofficial WhatsApp Web protocol.

A native x64dbg plugin that works as an MCP server, exposing dozens of debugging tools: agents can set breakpoints, step through code, read and write memory, analyze PE structure and locate the OEP of packed binaries. Windows only; install the plugin in x64dbg, then connect with a token.

Scans codebases and dependencies for open-source licenses, copyright notices and package manifests, detecting licenses by full-text matching, with output in JSON, SPDX, CycloneDX and more, for open-source compliance reviews.

Simon Willison's website screenshot CLI: batch screenshots from YAML, record demo videos, export PDF and HTML, run JavaScript in pages to extract data, and dump accessibility trees. Built on Playwright; install a browser on first use.

Runs open image models like FLUX, Qwen Image and Z-Image locally on a Mac: text-to-image, reference-based edits, inpainting and upscaling, all on-device. Needs Apple Silicon and uv; the first run downloads models and is slow. Check each model's license before commercial use.

A Chinese-first editing skill that also works on English: strips boilerplate, padded lead-ins and stiff phrasing while keeping numbers, conditions, commitments and the author's voice. Can flag issues without rewriting. It doesn't detect AI text or promise to evade detectors.

Four tools for real-time web search, page content extraction, site mapping and full-site crawling, available as a remote server or run locally. Maintained by Tavily; needs an API key or OAuth sign-in, and a free account is available.

Terraform and OpenTofu best practices from Anton Babenko: diagnoses the failure mode first, then guides testing, module structure, state management, CI/CD and security scanning. Works for AWS, Azure and GCP.

Uses hooks to enforce test-driven development in Claude Code: blocks implementation without a failing test, prevents code beyond what tests require, and can use lint results to push refactoring. Needs Node.js 22+. Still maintained, but the author suggests its successor Probity for new projects.

Extracts issuer, amount, date, invoice number and other fields from PDF invoices using YAML/JSON templates, exporting CSV, JSON or XML. Ships several text-extraction backends, OCR for scanned invoices and an optional AI fallback.

A native Go MCP server for Kubernetes and OpenShift: talks to the API server directly to create, read, update and delete any resource, view pod logs, exec commands and install Helm charts, without needing kubectl. Supports multiple clusters.

MiniMax's official CLI, built for agents: chat with MiniMax models from the terminal and generate images, video and speech, plus speech transcription, image understanding and web search. Works with the international platform. Requires a MiniMax Token Plan subscription.

Exports Feishu/Lark docs, whole folders or wikis to Markdown with images, so agents can read, migrate or archive them. Requires creating a custom app on the Feishu/Lark Open Platform and configuring its App ID and App Secret.

Figma's official skill for building FigJam boards through the Figma MCP: sticky notes, sections, connectors, shapes and tables for brainstorms, retros and meetings. Needs a Figma account, the remote MCP server and the figma-use skill; canvas writes are free in beta; usage pricing is planned.

Figma's official skill: the agent writes Mermaid, then uses the Figma MCP to build flowcharts and sequence, state, Gantt and ER diagrams in FigJam for you to tweak by hand. Unsupported types like pie charts and mind maps are flagged upfront. Needs a Figma account and the remote MCP server.

Unofficial Freshservice CLI built with Printing Press: lets AI check an IT agent's queue, flag tickets near SLA breach, search tickets and the knowledge base, gauge team workload, spot recurring issues and KB gaps, and manage changes and assets. Needs a Freshservice account and API key.

Self-hostable long-term memory for agents, offering MCP, a REST API and a web dashboard: semantic search, knowledge graph and automatic memory consolidation. Embeddings are computed locally; choose SQLite, Cloudflare or Milvus as the backend.

The Linux Foundation's open-source compliance toolchain: analyzes project dependencies, scans licenses and copyrights, checks known vulnerabilities, flags policy violations and generates SBOMs and notice files. Needs Java 25 or Docker and ideally 8 GB RAM; have legal review license findings.

Community-maintained GitLab MCP server: manage projects, merge requests, issues, pipelines, wikis and releases, with support for self-hosted instances and a read-only mode. Needs a GitLab personal access token or OAuth.
