Tools

Turns a paper (arXiv link or PDF) into method diagrams, slides with a generated image per page (PPTX/PDF export) and an in-depth HTML explainer with formulas, for lab meetings and lectures. No API key; images use Codex's built-in generator or, in Claude Code, a separate image skill.

Opens HTML, Markdown or localhost pages in the browser via npx human-review so you can edit text directly and leave anchored comments, then sends every edit and comment back to the agent in one batch to apply to the source.

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.

Submission skill packs tailored to 700+ journals and conferences, from AER, Nature and NEJM to top CS venues and leading Chinese journals, to revise papers to each venue's scope, style and requirements. Add its Claude Code marketplace per the README, then install packs per journal.

Free two-way Figma MCP that needs no paid Dev Mode seat: turns designs into code that fits your existing project, or builds pages and components on the canvas from a description, with data staying on your machine. Needs Node.js 20.19+, the Figma desktop app and the companion plugin.

Generates book covers, movie posters, article covers and social images from one sentence, picking colors and composition from 30+ poster masters' styles to suit the subject. Rendering directly needs Python and a PipeLLM image API key; or just generate prompts for another image tool.

Marketing skills for the AI search era: brand positioning from a website URL, SEO/GEO keyword and AI prompt research, Reddit opportunities, content planning and writing, backlink plans, and audits of how citable your site is to AI. Some scripts need Node.js; site-code changes need a developer.

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.

200+ skills for brand growth: customer and competitor research, ad and social performance analysis, ad creatives and social content, SEO, lead mining and outreach. Most are free; skills that pull external data use GooseWorks account credits (1,000 on sign-up), and some need keys like Apify.

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.

A Zotero 7 plugin with a built-in MCP server: agents search your local library (title, author, tags, full text), read PDF full text, abstracts, notes and highlights, and create notes and tags. Needs Zotero desktop with the plugin enabled; semantic search needs OpenAI or Ollama embeddings.

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.

Experimental open-source generative media MCP servers from Google Cloud: Nano Banana images, Veo video, Gemini TTS and Chirp voices, Lyria music, and AVTool for compositing. Each registers separately; needs a billing-enabled Google Cloud project and gcloud login; AVTool needs FFmpeg.

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.

Connects Rhino 8 and Grasshopper to agents: model in plain language, edit geometry and layers, measure areas and volumes, and build Grasshopper definitions, for architecture and product design. Install the rhinomcp plugin in Rhino, run mcpstart, and have uv installed. Unofficial (not McNeel).

Lets agents query Google Ads accounts, campaigns and performance data with GAQL; currently read-only tools only. Maintained by Google; needs Google Cloud credentials and Google Ads API access.

Connects the QGIS desktop GIS to Claude: create and save projects, load vector and raster layers, run Processing toolbox algorithms, export maps and execute PyQGIS code through chat. Needs QGIS 3 and uv; download the repo, copy the plugin into QGIS's plugin folder and start the server.

Alibaba Cloud's official CLI (aliyun): manage ECS, OSS and other services through OpenAPI, with structured output, JMESPath filtering, waiting on resource states, product plugins and a built-in MCP proxy. Configure credentials first; OAuth sign-in works locally.
