Tools

HashiCorp's secrets management system: the vault CLI reads and writes secrets, issues dynamic database and cloud credentials on demand, encrypts and decrypts data, and manages leases and revocation. Needs a reachable Vault server.

Lightweight command-line JSON processor that slices, filters, maps and transforms JSON with concise expressions and no runtime dependencies. A staple for agents parsing API responses and logs.

Community-maintained cybersecurity skill library: 800+ skills across 34 domains including threat hunting, incident forensics, penetration testing and cloud security, mapped to MITRE ATT&CK and NIST CSF. Not by Anthropic; offensive skills are for authorized testing only.

Data analysis plugin: writes queries in each SQL dialect, explores datasets, runs statistical tests, charts with Python and builds interactive HTML dashboards, then reviews methods and conclusions before sharing. Connects to Snowflake, BigQuery and other warehouses. Official from Anthropic.

Anthropic's official data skill that guides agents to write, translate and optimize SQL across Snowflake, BigQuery, Databricks, PostgreSQL and other warehouse dialects, including CTEs, window functions and analytical aggregations.

Anthropic's official plugin that opens PDFs in a local interactive viewer where Claude proposes highlights, comments and approval stamps in batches, walks you through form filling, places signature images and exports an annotated copy. Needs Node.js 18+; signatures are not digital certificates.

For preclinical life sciences research: bundles MCP connectors for PubMed, bioRxiv, ChEMBL, Open Targets, ClinicalTrials and more, plus analysis skills for single-cell RNA QC, scvi-tools and nf-core pipelines. Official from Anthropic; some data sources need accounts.

Compliance skill from Anthropic's official operations plugin: maps controls, owners and evidence for SOC 2, ISO 27001, GDPR, HIPAA and PCI DSS, schedules audits, runs gap analyses, and outputs audit-readiness checklists and evidence collection plans. Have legal or compliance experts review.

Adds a searchable, copyable text layer to scanned PDFs, with automatic deskew, rotation and size optimization, outputting PDF/A by default. Built on Tesseract, supports 100+ languages and runs fully locally.

Vercel's React Native and Expo best practices ranked by impact, covering list scrolling performance, Reanimated animations, navigation, UI patterns, state management and monorepo setup. Maintained by Vercel.

Runs the cognee memory engine as an MCP server whose remember, recall and forget tools write documents and conversations into a knowledge graph and vector store for cross-session retrieval. Start it with Docker or uv first; needs an LLM API key by default, or connect to Cognee Cloud.

Fast vulnerability scanner driven by YAML templates: uses a community template library to detect known vulnerabilities over HTTP, DNS, TCP, SSL and more, supports custom templates and plugs into CI/CD. Use only on targets you're authorized to test.

Writes conversations and business data into Graphiti's temporal knowledge graph so agents can retrieve long-term memory by entity, fact and time. Open source from Zep; start FalkorDB or Neo4j and the server with Docker first, and configure an LLM API key.

Gives coding agents IDE-like symbol-level code search, editing and refactoring via language servers (LSP) across 40+ languages, with cross-session memory. An optional paid JetBrains plugin backend adds breakpoint debugging. Install with uv first.

Detects hardcoded passwords, API keys and tokens in Git repos, files and stdin, and can run as a pre-commit hook or GitHub Action to block leaks. Now feature-frozen with security fixes only, as the author has moved on to Betterleaks.

Finds leaked credentials in Git, GitHub, S3, filesystems and more, recognizing 800+ secret types and checking with each service whether a key is still live to cut false positives.

Financial research terminal agent, like Claude Code for finance: breaks company research questions into steps, pulls financial statements and market data, and self-checks before answering. Needs Bun, a model API key and a Financial Datasets API key; for learning and research only.

Translation skill by Baoyu with quick, normal and refined modes, custom glossaries, and target audience and style settings. Translates local files or URLs; suited to long-form Chinese-English translation and localization. Needs bun or npx.

CLI and library for evaluating and red-teaming LLM apps: compare prompts and model outputs in bulk, scan for security vulnerabilities and plug into CI/CD, with evals running locally. Now part of OpenAI and still open source under MIT.

Open-source e-book manager whose command-line tools (ebook-convert, ebook-meta, calibredb) batch-convert between EPUB, MOBI, AZW3, PDF, DOCX and more and manage library metadata. The install command is Linux-only; on macOS and Windows use the installer.

Open-source reverse engineering framework and CLI: disassemble, debug, emulate and patch binaries across many architectures and file formats, scriptable through r2pipe or built-in JavaScript.

Fast speech transcription built on faster-whisper, with word-level timestamps and speaker diarization, suited to meeting notes and subtitles. Diarization needs a Hugging Face token; GPU acceleration needs CUDA.

Google's official skill library and plugin marketplace: nearly 150 skills focused on Google Cloud (GKE, BigQuery, Cloud Run, IAM and more), plus 17 product plugins pairing skills with MCP for Cloud SQL, Spanner, AlloyDB, BigQuery, GCS and others.

Manages BigQuery datasets, tables and jobs with the bq and gcloud CLIs, runs SQL queries and loads data, with references for client libraries, MCP and Terraform. Google's official skill; requires a Google Cloud project.
