Tools

A more intuitive find-and-replace tool than sed: uses JavaScript/Python-style regex syntax, supports literal string mode and in-place file edits, which suits agents doing bulk text rewrites.

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.

Turns articles, reports, papers or notes into a .pptx of full-slide images with speaker notes, in 12 styles such as lectures and thesis defenses; slide text is not editable. Needs Python 3; uses Codex's built-in image generation, or an OpenAI-compatible image API key in Claude Code.

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.

Static security analysis for CI/CD config: finds template injection, credential leaks, excessive permissions and more in GitHub Actions workflows, also covers Dependabot and pre-commit configs, and auto-fixes some findings.

One command extracts or summarizes web pages, PDFs, YouTube videos, podcasts and media files, with JSON output. Summaries can use many model APIs, local models or a logged-in Codex or Claude CLI; plain extraction needs no key. Also has a browser sidebar extension.

Open-source alternative to NotebookLM's podcast feature: turns web pages, PDFs, images, YouTube videos or text into two-host conversational audio, useful for lecture notes or articles. Uses Gemini and OpenAI API keys by default, or local models plus free Edge TTS.

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.

14 n8n workflow skills: expression syntax, MCP tool usage, node configuration, validation and troubleshooting, Code nodes, AI Agent workflows and self-hosted n8n deployment. Meant to be used with the n8n-mcp server.

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.

Generates template-driven charts as single-file HTML: picks a chart from real Lupi, Basics, Glance, Maps and Interactive gallery implementations based on data shape, or fills one of 12 Chinese and English report templates. Defaults to Mono grayscale with semantic color presets. Written in Chinese.

Unofficial nlm CLI and MCP server for NotebookLM (now Gemini Notebook): bulk-create notebooks, import web pages and docs, and generate audio overviews, quizzes, flashcards, mind maps and slides for teaching and study. Relies on undocumented APIs and a Google sign-in, so it may break.

Unofficial CLI and MCP that let agents work with NotebookLM (now Gemini Notebook): bulk-import sources, ask questions with citations, and generate audio overviews, quizzes, flashcards, mind maps and slides. Uses undocumented APIs and may break; needs a Google sign-in and uv.

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.

Posit's open-source scientific and technical publishing system built on Pandoc: embed Python, R or Julia code in Markdown or Jupyter notebooks, then quarto render produces HTML, PDF, Word, slides, websites and books.

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.

Docker's official CLI for building images, running and managing containers, viewing logs and pushing to registries, a foundational tool for agents setting up isolated environments. Needs a local or remote Docker Engine such as Docker Desktop.

Reference for pnpm 12: CLI, pnpm-workspace.yaml settings, monorepo workspaces, catalogs, overrides, patches, supply-chain settings such as build approval, task orchestration, CI setup and migration from npm, Yarn or older pnpm. Generated by Anthony Fu from the official docs.

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.

draw.io's official MCP: opens XML, CSV or Mermaid diagrams generated by the agent directly in the draw.io editor, good for flowcharts and architecture diagrams. A no-install remote version can also render diagrams inline in the chat.

Connects to your local or cloud Zotero library: search by title, full text or semantics, read PDFs and annotations, add items by DOI and organize collections. Needs Python 3.10+; for local mode, enable the local API in Zotero settings first.

GitHub's official gh extension for writing Actions workflows in Markdown that AI agents execute, compiled into standard Actions. Choose engines like Copilot, Claude Code or Codex; runs in a read-only sandbox by default. Requires gh.
