OpenAI's official Codex plugin for Outlook mail: triages your inbox, summarizes threads, extracts action items, and drafts replies or forwards, for people who handle heavy email loads. Requires Codex with a ChatGPT sign-in and an authorized Microsoft account.

Scrapes web pages into Markdown or structured data, with full-site crawling, sitemaps, web search and interaction with dynamic pages. Maintained by Firecrawl; the cloud needs an API key (self-hosting is possible), and the keyless hosted endpoint only offers scrape, search and parse.

Command-line email client supporting IMAP, SMTP, JMAP, Gmail and Microsoft Graph, with multiple accounts and --json output, so agents can check, search, compose and send mail. A first-run wizard auto-detects your mailbox settings.

Open-source LLM evaluation platform: one opencompass command picks the model and datasets and runs the evaluation across hundreds of benchmarks. Works with local Hugging Face models and API models, with vLLM and LMDeploy for faster inference.

Converts raster images like JPG and PNG to SVG, handling color tracing, black-and-white line art and unevenly lit scans, for vectorizing logos, illustrations and old drawings. The CLI is a 1.0 preview installed with cargo (needs Rust); a desktop app is also available.

Converts and two-way syncs Jupyter notebooks with plain Python scripts or Markdown, so agents can edit research and teaching notebooks like ordinary text and diffs stay readable. Needs a local Python environment; install with pip.

Cleans a LaTeX project before arXiv submission: removes comments, auxiliary files and unused .tex files and images, and can compress images, so internal notes are not published with the source. From Google Research; installable with Homebrew on macOS.

Python library and CLI for extracting main web content: fetches pages, crawls via sitemaps and RSS feeds, strips headers, footers and other noise, and outputs TXT, Markdown, JSON, XML and more with metadata. Also processes downloaded HTML offline.

Anthropic's official OS-level sandbox CLI: restricts file and network access for agents, MCP servers and any command without containers, using sandbox-exec on macOS and bubblewrap on Linux. Currently a research preview.

Veteran suite of CSV command-line tools: in2csv converts Excel and JSON to CSV, csvcut, csvgrep and csvsort filter and sort, csvstat computes statistics, and csvsql runs SQL directly against CSV files.

Google's official skills for building ADK agents: dev workflow, scaffolding, the ADK Python API, evaluation with LLM judges and adaptive rubrics, deployment to Agent Runtime, Cloud Run or GKE, publishing and observability. Works with agents-cli; local dev needs only an AI Studio key.

Semi-automated research workflow for computer science and AI researchers: ideation, Zotero literature management, experiment analysis and reports, paper writing and polishing, and rebuttals, with optional Obsidian knowledge base. 40+ skills; also installable as a Claude Code plugin.

Semi-automated research assistant for CS and AI researchers that links ideation, Zotero literature management, experiment analysis and reporting, paper writing and reviewer responses, and keeps project knowledge in Obsidian. Branches for Codex and other agents exist.

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.

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.

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.

CLI and TypeScript runtime for discovering and calling MCP servers from the terminal and scripts: list tool signatures and call tools directly, or generate a standalone CLI or typed client from a server. Auto-imports existing MCP configs from Claude Code, Codex and others.

Draws bar charts, histograms, line charts, scatter plots and box plots in the terminal from CSV/TSV on stdin, so you can glance at data distributions at the end of a shell pipeline. The command is uplot.

Teaches agents to code against the latest Gemini API and Python/TypeScript SDKs: multi-turn chat, function calling, structured output, and image and speech generation, while avoiding deprecated older models. Maintained by Google's Gemini team.

Gemini API development skills: gemini-api-dev (core API and SDKs), gemini-live-api-dev (real-time bidirectional audio/video streaming) and gemini-omni-flash-api (Omni video generation and editing), filling in APIs released after model training cutoffs. Maintained by Google's Gemini team.

Hugging Face's official hf CLI: search, download and upload models and datasets, manage repos and storage buckets, and run jobs on Hugging Face's cloud. Output adapts automatically for agents, and hf skills add installs companion skills. Uploads and similar actions need a login.

NVIDIA's official, verified catalog of hundreds of skills covering CUDA-X libraries, NeMo training, NIM and Dynamo inference, RAG blueprints, Jetson, Omniverse and robotics simulation. The install adds only nvidia-skill-finder, which recommends other skills and installs them once you confirm.

NVIDIA's official plugin that finds and installs the right skills from NVIDIA's catalog for your task, spanning CUDA acceleration, NIM inference, NeMo training, RAG blueprints, Omniverse simulation and robotics. Listed in both the Claude and Codex official marketplaces.
