Tools

Open-source research agent: one command runs literature reviews, deep research, paper reviews, paper-code consistency checks and replication plans, searching arXiv, PubMed and more with sources recorded. Good for grad students writing reviews. Run feynman setup to sign in to a model provider.

Processes CSV, TSV, JSON and other structured data like awk, sed, cut, join and sort, but by field name, for cleaning, aggregation, format conversion and pretty-printing. The command is mlr; written in Go with no runtime dependencies.

NVIDIA's open-source LLM vulnerability scanner that probes for prompt injection, jailbreaks, data leakage, hallucination and harmful content, supporting OpenAI, Hugging Face, Bedrock and most REST-accessible models. Scanning cloud models needs their API keys.

Linter and formatter for 20+ SQL dialects that auto-fixes most issues and handles Jinja templating and dbt projects (dbt needs a plugin), suited to warehouse code review and CI.

Official AWS MCP for managing FHIR health data in AWS HealthLake: CRUD, advanced search, full patient records, and import and export, with a read-only mode to prevent changes. Needs an AWS account, a paid HealthLake data store and local AWS credentials; clinical conclusions need professional review.

Distributed data integration tool and Apache top-level project with 160+ connectors for batch, real-time and CDC sync. Define jobs in config files and run them on the built-in Zeta engine or on Flink or Spark. Requires Java.

Extracts subtitles burned into videos to SRT or TXT, with all OCR done locally in 87 languages. Mainly a GUI (with batch mode); the CLI backend/main.py reads the video path and subtitle area from stdin. Needs Python 3.12+ and PaddlePaddle; paths cannot contain spaces or Chinese characters.

High-accuracy retrieval-augmented Q&A over paper PDFs, text and Office documents, filling in citation metadata, checking retractions and attaching traceable sources to answers. Provides the pqa CLI and a Python library. Needs an LLM API key by default; local models can be configured.

Terminal tool for exploring and wrangling tabular data: opens dozens of formats including CSV, JSON, Excel and SQLite for filtering, sorting, pivots and frequency counts. --batch mode replays actions headlessly or converts file formats.

Say build a harness for this project and it designs a domain-specific agent team, generating subagent definitions, companion skills and orchestration, validates them and keeps evolving them from feedback. Supports workflow orchestration, persistent agent teams and subagent delegation.

Manage database schemas as code: declare the desired schema in SQL, HCL or your ORM and Atlas plans, lints and applies migrations, and can export existing databases as HCL, SQL or Mermaid ER diagrams. Supports PostgreSQL, MySQL and a dozen other databases.

Converts the output of 100+ commands such as dig, ps, ls and ifconfig, plus common file formats, into JSON so agents can parse it reliably with jq or scripts. Also usable as a Python library.

Turns Peng Sida's public research-writing notes into a skill: revises abstracts, introductions, methods and experiments of ML/CV/NLP papers from a reviewer's view, checks that each claim has experimental evidence, and runs a pre-submission self-check. Pure methodology, no API key.

Offline speech toolkit for Apple Silicon Macs: CLI text-to-speech (including Chinese and voice cloning) and speech-to-text, for voicing lessons and explainer videos or transcribing lectures and interviews, with data staying local. Needs an M-series Mac and Python 3.10+; MP3 export needs ffmpeg.

Cuts long videos like podcasts, webinars, livestreams and interviews into captioned vertical shorts, with optional dubbing and publishing to TikTok, YouTube and more. Hosted version needs an API key (free tier is watermarked and time-limited), or self-host with Docker and your own keys.

Removes backgrounds from images and videos with one AI command: batch whole folders, use a portrait model, refine edges or swap in a solid color, and output transparent MOV or composite video onto a new background. Runs locally; install PyTorch and ffmpeg first. Models download on first run.

Query, modify and convert JSON, YAML, TOML, XML, CSV, HCL, INI and more with one selector syntax, editing config files in place or converting between formats, handy for agents handling structured data in scripts. A single dependency-free binary that works much like jq or yq.

Diffusion model inference in pure C/C++: one sd-cli command runs SD, FLUX, Qwen Image, Wan and more locally to create or edit images and short videos, with Metal acceleration on Mac. No cloud needed; bring your own model weights and use a release binary or build from source.

Adobe's official Codex plugin, listed in OpenAI's plugin marketplace: batch-edit and retouch photos by chat, build social graphics from Express templates, reformat landscape video into vertical shorts and search Creative Cloud assets. Try it as a guest; sign in for more features.

Creates, edits and validates reproducible Python and SQL Jupyter notebooks: organizes cells as reports or tutorials, checks conclusions against actual output and reruns top to bottom before handoff. Maintained by OpenAI in the Data Analytics plugin of openai/plugins.

Automatically aligns subtitle timing to a video's audio track, fixing translated subtitles that drift out of sync, or syncs against an already aligned subtitle file. Runs locally with no account; install Python and FFmpeg first.

Higgsfield's official Codex plugin: uses its remote MCP to generate images and video from text or photos, like product-shot video ads or animated stills, with built-in flows for faceless narration, voiceover and burned-in captions. Needs a Higgsfield account; billed in credits.

OpenAI's official Codex plugin that starts from a brief, product shots or references to generate marketing concepts, mood boards, product scenes, ad directions and social assets, compared and iterated on a reviewable board. Works with Figma and Canva.

Build with OpenAI best practices inside Codex: call the OpenAI API, build and deploy agents with the Agents SDK, create ChatGPT apps and prepare submission materials, and create API keys directly. Maintained by OpenAI; Codex only.
