Converts PDF, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, HTML, images, audio and more into Markdown that keeps headings, lists and tables, ready for LLMs to read and analyze. Maintained by Microsoft; requires Python 3.10+.

In-process analytical SQL database. Its CLI queries CSV, Parquet and JSON files directly with SQL, no import or server needed, so agents can sample and aggregate large files. Officially maintained.

Baidu PaddlePaddle's official OCR and document parsing tool: the paddleocr command reads text from images and parses PDFs and scans into Markdown or JSON, supporting 100+ languages with models that run locally.

Astral's extremely fast Python package and project manager written in Rust, replacing pip, pipx, poetry, pyenv and more. Supports lockfiles and multiple Python versions, and uvx runs Python tools without installing them.

Adaptive web scraping framework: scrapling extract turns a page into Markdown, text or HTML in one command, with CSS selectors and browser rendering for dynamic pages, plus an MCP server (needs the ai extra). Needs Python 3.10+ and a browser install on first use.

Open-source, LLM-friendly web crawler that turns pages into clean Markdown for RAG and agents. Ships the crwl CLI and supports deep crawling and question-driven data extraction (extraction needs an LLM key). Free to self-host.

Document parser from OpenDataLab that turns PDFs, images and Office files into Markdown or JSON, handling tables, formulas and complex layouts well, with page-by-page reading and citation anchors for agents. Parses locally by default; needs Python 3.10+.

Classic open-source OCR engine and CLI that reads text from images and outputs plain text, hOCR, searchable PDF or TSV. Supports 100+ languages; install the language data for each language you need.

macOS cleanup and maintenance CLI (mo): clears caches and logs, fully uninstalls apps, analyzes disk usage, removes project build artifacts and shows system status. Preview deletions with --dry-run; disk analysis and status support JSON output. Needs macOS 12+.

Parses PDF, DOCX, PPTX, XLSX, HTML, images and audio, recovering layout, reading order, tables and formulas, and exports Markdown, HTML or lossless JSON. Started by IBM Research, now hosted by the LF AI & Data Foundation; runs fully locally.

Upstash's official Context7 CLI (ctx7): search libraries and pull up-to-date docs from the terminal, or set up the Context7 MCP and rules for Claude Code, Cursor and other agents in one step. Docs lookup needs no login; signing in raises rate limits.

Packs a web page, local HTML or dist folder into a lightweight desktop app with one command (built on Rust Tauri; macOS, Windows, Linux), with --json output and llms.txt for agents. Needs Node.js; installs Rust automatically if missing.

'rsync for cloud storage': sync and copy files across dozens of providers such as S3, Google Drive, OneDrive and Alibaba Cloud OSS, with encryption and mounting. Set up remotes with rclone config before use.

Expo's official CLI: starts the React Native dev server, runs prebuild to generate native folders, runs apps locally on iOS and Android, and installs version-compatible dependencies. Ships with the expo package; call it with npx expo inside a project.

Package manager for macOS and Linux: agents can brew install CLI tools and desktop apps (casks), or use brew bundle to restore a dev environment from a Brewfile.

Lightweight multi-protocol command-line downloader that fetches in parallel segments from multiple sources over HTTP(S), FTP, SFTP, BitTorrent and Metalink. Resumes downloads, reads URLs in bulk from text files and offers a JSON-RPC interface for scripts or agents.

Release automation for iOS and Android: lanes orchestrate builds, code signing management, screenshot generation and uploads to the App Store and Google Play, and agents can call a project's existing lanes directly.

Cross-platform shell built around structured data: pipelines pass tables instead of plain text, and you can open and query JSON, CSV, TOML and more directly. Default builds include nu --mcp, which serves it to agents as an MCP server.

Converts PDFs, images, PPTX, DOCX, XLSX, EPUB and more into Markdown, JSON or HTML, preserving tables, formulas and layout, with optional LLM help for higher accuracy. Needs Python 3.10+ and PyTorch; large-scale commercial use of the model weights needs a paid license.

Headless browser written from scratch in Zig for AI agents and automation, using less memory and running faster than headless Chrome in official benchmarks. fetch turns pages into Markdown, and it can serve CDP or MCP. Telemetry is on by default (an env var disables it); Windows needs WSL.

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.

Style and convention linter for Swift, with most rules built on SwiftSyntax. Configure it with .swiftlint.yml, auto-correct with --fix, and run it in an Xcode build phase or as a SwiftPM plugin.

AI2's tool for converting PDFs and scans to Markdown with a vision LLM, handling equations, tables, handwriting and multi-column layouts, suited to bulk digitizing papers and archives. Local runs need an NVIDIA GPU with 12GB+ VRAM; otherwise use a paid OpenAI-compatible remote endpoint.

Alibaba's open-source offline data sync tool: JSON job configs batch-sync between heterogeneous sources like MySQL, Oracle, PostgreSQL, Hive, HDFS and MaxCompute, run with python datax.py. Needs JDK 1.8+ and Python; download and unpack the official toolkit.
