Tools

From HKU's Data Intelligence Lab: plugins or skills for Claude Code, Codex and other agents generate agent-callable CLIs for apps like GIMP, Blender and LibreOffice, and the cli-hub package manager finds and installs ready-made community CLIs. Needs Python 3.10+.

Open-source crypto trading framework: download market data, backtest and optimize strategies, and paper trade from the CLI while agents iterate on strategies. Docker recommended; strategies need Python and live trading needs exchange API keys. Backtests don't guarantee returns.

General-purpose AI agent that runs on your machine, with a desktop app, CLI and API. Written in Rust, works with 15+ model providers and connects to 70+ extensions via MCP. Originally from Block, now part of the Linux Foundation's AAIF.

Agile AI-driven development method: analyst, product manager, UX designer and other role skills turn ideas into product briefs, PRDs and PRFAQs, then split them into tasks for agents. Needs a skills-capable agent such as Claude Code, plus Node.js, Git and uv; then run bmad setup.

C/C++ port of OpenAI's Whisper speech recognition model that transcribes audio offline and outputs subtitles. Runs on CPU, with Apple Silicon and various GPU acceleration. Download a ggml-format model first.

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.

Astral's extremely fast Python linter and formatter written in Rust, replacing Flake8, isort and Black, with 900+ built-in rules and auto-fix.

Terminal multiplexer: run multiple sessions and panes in one terminal, with processes surviving disconnects. Agents use it to host long-running tasks and drive interactive programs, and many parallel multi-agent session tools build on it.

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.

Ultra-lightweight, self-hosted personal AI agent framework in Python: WebUI, terminal and chat channels (Telegram, Discord, Slack, WeChat, Feishu, email), long-term memory, cron, MCP and multi-agent delegation; reads PDF and Office files. OpenAI-compatible or local models; Python 3.11+.

Collection of 2,400+ installable SKILL.md skills across development, security, cloud and ops, AI, marketing and more, with the AAS Core local MCP and an installer that help agents search, pick skills and preview install plans. Formerly antigravity-awesome-skills.

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.

Open-source personal AI assistant and agent harness, formerly chatgpt-on-wechat: plans tasks, runs tools and skills, self-evolving memory and knowledge, multi-agent teams. Channels: WeChat, WeCom, Feishu, DingTalk, QQ, Telegram, Slack; any major model provider. One-line install and web console.

Anthropic's official Telegram channel plugin (research preview): connects a Telegram bot to a running Claude Code session so you can message the agent and get replies from your phone, with pairing and allowlist access control. Needs Bun and a BotFather token; launch with --channels.

Official Anthropic plugin that reads local session logs in ~/.claude/projects and generates an interactive HTML usage report covering tokens, cache hit rate, subagents, skills and the most expensive prompts, with optimization tips. Needs Node.js.

Three layers of security checks on agent-written code: rule-based warnings on about 25 risky patterns during edits, a model review of the diff at turn end, and an agent tracing cross-file bugs like IDOR and SSRF at commit. Official Anthropic plugin; needs Python 3.8+ and model API access.

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.

Designs and builds MCP servers: first picks a deployment model among remote HTTP, MCPB bundles and local stdio, then guides tool design, auth and in-chat interactive components. Maintained by Anthropic.

Official Linear plugin in Anthropic's marketplace: connects the hosted Linear MCP to create and update issues, manage projects and states, and search across workspaces from chat. Needs a Linear account and OAuth authorization.

Creates or improves Agent Skills from scratch: writes eval cases to test them, runs benchmarks with variance analysis, and tunes descriptions for more accurate triggering. Maintained by Anthropic.

Official Asana plugin in Claude's plugin marketplace: connects Claude Code to the Asana V2 MCP server to create and manage tasks, search projects, change assignees and track progress. Create your own Asana OAuth app first, then run /asana-setup after installing.

Connects Claude Code to the Pyright language server for static type checking and code intelligence in Python. Install pyright first with npm, pip or pipx. Official Anthropic plugin.

Anthropic's official Discord channel plugin: connects a Discord bot to a running Claude Code session so you can message the agent and get replies and attachments in DMs or chosen channels, with built-in pairing and allowlist access control. Needs Bun and a bot token; launch with --channels.
