Tools

From Microsoft: converts PDF, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, HTML and other files or URLs to Markdown so agents can read and search them. A single convert_to_markdown tool over STDIO or local HTTP.

Open-source browser agent project. Its browser-use CLI lets Claude Code, Codex and other agents drive your logged-in local Chrome with Python snippets, or connect to a cloud browser; also ships a Python agent library. The cloud browser needs an API key.

Self-improving agent from Nous Research with built-in memory and a learning loop that turns experience into skills. Works with any model provider; the hermes command has a terminal UI, and a gateway connects it to Telegram, Slack and more and runs scheduled tasks.

Local MCP server built into Browser Use: lets agents navigate, click, type and extract page content, or hand multi-step tasks to the built-in browser agent. Bring your own OpenAI or Anthropic API key.

High-throughput LLM inference and serving engine: vllm serve starts an OpenAI- and Anthropic-compatible server in one command. Supports 200+ model architectures from Hugging Face, quantization and distributed inference. Aimed mainly at NVIDIA, AMD and other GPUs.

Unofficial Python library and CLI for driving Google NotebookLM (now Gemini Notebook): bulk-import sources, ask cited questions, and generate and download podcasts, videos, slides, quizzes and flashcards. Ships an agent skill. Relies on undocumented APIs and needs a Google sign-in.

Browser control from the browser-use team: an editable CDP connection lets agents drive the Chrome you are already using, writing missing helper functions as they go and keeping them for reuse. Also offers an MCP server. Allow remote debugging in Chrome on first use.

Multi-language git hook manager: declare formatting, lint, secret scanning and other hooks in .pre-commit-config.yaml to run automatically before each commit, or have the agent self-check with pre-commit run --all-files before committing.

Converts text to speech with Microsoft Edge's online TTS service and can generate subtitle files at the same time. No API key needed, with voices for many languages. Not an official Microsoft project and depends on that online service staying available.

Bundles 60+ full-stack specialist skills into one plugin: experts for 12 languages including Python, TypeScript, Go, Rust and Java, and frameworks like React, Django and Spring Boot, activated automatically by request. Also includes Jira and Confluence workflow commands (needs Atlassian MCP).

NetEase's open-source cross-platform UI automation framework: locates elements by image recognition to automate games and apps on Android, iOS and Windows without touching their code. airtest run executes cases and airtest report builds HTML reports.

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.

Open-source offline machine translation built on OpenNMT, usable as a CLI, Python library or GUI. Download language packages as needed; when no direct model exists it pivots through an intermediate language. Suits text you would rather not upload to the cloud.

Community-maintained MCP for Jira and Confluence: search with JQL/CQL and create or update issues, pages and comments. Supports both Cloud and Server/Data Center deployments; needs an API token or personal access token.

Lets agents operate Home Assistant: control devices, query state and history, create and debug automations and edit dashboards, with 80+ tools. Community-maintained (unofficial); requires your own Home Assistant instance, and running via uvx needs a long-lived access token.

Moves files to the trash instead of deleting them, with commands to list, restore and empty trashed files, so anything an agent deletes by mistake can be recovered. Follows the FreeDesktop.org trash spec and shares the trash with GNOME and KDE.

English prose linter that turns usage guides such as Garner's and advice from great writers into rules, flagging clichés, redundancy, bad comparisons and usage errors line by line, with JSON output for agents. Runs locally with Python; English only.

Uses Obsidian's community Local REST API plugin so agents can list, read, search, append to and delete notes, and insert content at a heading, block reference or frontmatter field. Install that plugin and configure its API key first.

Simon Willison's website screenshot CLI: batch screenshots from YAML, record demo videos, export PDF and HTML, run JavaScript in pages to extract data, and dump accessibility trees. Built on Playwright; install a browser on first use.

Command-line reference and bibliography manager: add papers by DOI with metadata fetched automatically, search by author, title or tag, and import or export BibTeX. Each entry is a readable YAML file that agents can read and write easily; a web UI is included. Needs Python.

Web search through DuckDuckGo plus fetching and parsing page content, with built-in rate limiting and LLM-friendly result formatting. No API key needed; runs with a single uvx command.

Crawls an entire site, counts words and keywords per page, and checks technical SEO such as titles, meta descriptions, image alt text, H1s and social tags. Outputs JSON by default or an HTML report for agents to act on. Needs Python; the optional AI content review needs an API key.

From the X (Twitter) developer platform: a FastMCP server that turns the X API into tools to post, search posts and users, and manage DMs and lists, with an allowlist for which tools load. Needs X developer app credentials and a locally started Python server.

Lets agents create, update and resolve incidents in ServiceNow, manage the service catalog, change requests and knowledge articles, and load only the tools each role needs. Needs a ServiceNow account and Python 3.11+ (from source); community-maintained, last updated Oct 2025.
