Tools

The .NET team's official skill collection, grouped into plugins: ASP.NET Core, Blazor, MAUI, EF Core data access, MSBuild troubleshooting, performance diagnostics, testing, and framework upgrades and migrations. Maintained by Microsoft; install via the Claude Code or Codex plugin marketplace.

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.

12 LinkedIn writing skills: write posts, comments and replies in your voice without AI tone, plan a week of content and rewrite your profile, waiting for your confirmation before each post. Produces copy-paste drafts by default; optional Apify (reading posts) and Publora (auto-publish) API keys.

12 LinkedIn writing skills: draft posts, comments and replies in your voice without obvious AI tone, optimize your profile and plan a week of content, with your approval before anything goes out. Also usable in Claude desktop/web (paid plans); optional Apify token to read posts, Publora to publish.

Rewrites a CLAUDE.md so Claude Code follows it better: keeps project identity and map bare at the top, wraps task-specific rules in narrowly conditioned <important if> blocks, cuts snippets and lint-enforceable rules, and keeps every command.

Creates or updates a pull request description that explains why the change exists in one sentence, flags up to three things to note, and outlines the implementation with diff-style file, component and call trees. Uses the GitHub CLI; runs only when invoked by name.

Turns a repeatable agent task into a repo-local skill plus a GitHub Actions workflow that runs a coding agent (Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode or CodeLayer) on a schedule, with a prompt, memory file and one-open-PR bound. Reads the repo first, then walks you through cadence, scope and validation.

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.

Interviews you to design an agentic control loop for your codebase in control-theory terms: a set point, a sensor built from existing tooling, a controller that picks small low-risk changes, and a coding agent that opens PRs. Builds each part to run locally before wiring a scheduled CI workflow.

Explains the current topic visually with the smallest view that makes the point: pseudocode, call trees, component or file trees, Mermaid diagrams or diffs, and a focused HTML diagram or short deck when the idea is too dense. Invoked manually.

Community Playwright browser automation MCP from ExecuteAutomation (not Microsoft's official one): navigate, click, fill forms, screenshot and scrape page text, plus send HTTP requests, assert network responses and record actions into test code, with 143 device emulations built in.

Gives agents on-demand guidance for the modern web platform, covering View Transitions, container queries, Popover, INP optimization, accessibility and more, with browser compatibility data so they avoid outdated code. Maintained by the Google Chrome team; currently in preview.

GitHub's official gh extension for writing Actions workflows in Markdown that AI agents execute, compiled into standard Actions. Choose engines like Copilot, Claude Code or Codex; runs in a read-only sandbox by default. Requires gh.

Audits and rewrites AI-sounding prose: detects stock phrases using 70+ pattern categories and a tiered replacement word list, with detect-only, rewrite and in-place edit modes and optional voice settings. Rules are calibrated for English.

Turns SRT subtitles into a hand-drawn whiteboard animation on warm paper that follows the narration, exported as MP4, pausing for approval at storyboard, line art and annotation steps. Good for lesson explainers. Needs Python; line art from an image-capable agent or your own.

macOS screenshot and UI automation CLI: capture the screen, read the accessibility tree for structured UI elements, then click, type, and switch windows and menus. Also runs as an MCP server for Claude Code and Codex. Needs macOS 15+ with Screen Recording and Accessibility permissions.

macOS screen capture, accessibility-tree inspection and native UI automation, served over MCP so agents can see the screen and click, type and operate menus. Requires macOS 15+ with Screen Recording and Accessibility permissions granted.

LM Studio's official CLI: list, load and unload local models, start and stop the local API server, and check status and logs; ls, ps and other commands support --json output for scripts and agents. Requires the LM Studio desktop app.

Detects shot changes in video and splits long footage into scenes, exporting cut lists and per-scene thumbnails, useful for shot analysis, organizing footage and finding edit points. Runs locally; needs Python 3.10+, plus FFmpeg or mkvmerge for splitting.

Mistral's official open-source terminal coding assistant: uses Mistral models to read and write code, run commands and search the codebase, with multiple agent profiles and subagents, plus Skills, MCP and a --prompt scripting mode. Needs a Mistral API key.

From Callstack: lets coding agents inspect, operate and verify apps on iOS, Android and HarmonyOS simulators and real devices, reading accessibility snapshots, taking screenshots and recordings, and capturing logs and performance data. Ships both a CLI and a built-in MCP server.

From Callstack: lets coding agents drive and verify iOS, Android, HarmonyOS and desktop apps through accessibility snapshots, with taps, form filling, screenshots, logs and performance sampling, plus a built-in MCP server. Requires Node.js 22.12+.

Self-contained modern TeX/LaTeX engine based on XeTeX and TeX Live that downloads and caches support files on first build, compiling .tex to PDF in one command without installing a full TeX distribution.

Generates hand-drawn-style Excalidraw diagrams (.excalidraw files you can keep editing on excalidraw.com) from text, choosing fan-out, timeline or convergence layouts by how concepts relate. Optional uv and Playwright let the agent render and check layouts; colors live in one file you can restyle.
