Tools

Perplexity's official MCP with four tools: web search, grounded Q&A, deep research and reasoning, available remotely or run locally. Requires a Perplexity API key.

Gives agents a live local Excalidraw canvas: add, edit and delete elements to draw architecture diagrams and flowcharts, take screenshots to check the result, convert Mermaid and export .excalidraw files. Runs locally with no API key; also ships a CLI and an agent skill.

Runs open image models like FLUX, Qwen Image and Z-Image locally on a Mac: text-to-image, reference-based edits, inpainting and upscaling, all on-device. Needs Apple Silicon and uv; the first run downloads models and is slow. Check each model's license before commercial use.

Gives agents on-demand guidance for the modern web platform, covering View Transitions, container queries, Popover, INP optimization, accessibility and more, with browser compatibility data so they avoid outdated code. Maintained by the Google Chrome team; currently in preview.

Apify's official skill collection: picks from 130+ curated Actors to scrape public data from social networks, maps, e-commerce sites and more, and can also build, package and deploy Actors. Needs an Apify account; a free tier is available.

Four tools for real-time web search, page content extraction, site mapping and full-site crawling, available as a remote server or run locally. Maintained by Tavily; needs an API key or OAuth sign-in, and a free account is available.

Supabase's official CLI: runs the full backend stack locally (Postgres, Auth, Storage, Edge Functions), manages database migrations, generates types and deploys functions. The local stack requires Docker.

Terraform and OpenTofu best practices from Anton Babenko: diagnoses the failure mode first, then guides testing, module structure, state management, CI/CD and security scanning. Works for AWS, Azure and GCP.

Uses hooks to enforce test-driven development in Claude Code: blocks implementation without a failing test, prevents code beyond what tests require, and can use lint results to push refactoring. Needs Node.js 22+. Still maintained, but the author suggests its successor Probity for new projects.

Lets Claude Code and other agents call Antigravity CLI or Gemini CLI, using Gemini's large context window to analyze big files and whole codebases; with Gemini CLI it can also test code in a sandbox. Install and sign in to the CLI first. Not an official Google project.

WordPress's official skill collection: block development, block themes, plugin architecture, REST API, Interactivity API, WP-CLI, performance profiling and Playground, so agents write code to modern WordPress standards and avoid common security pitfalls.

Stripe's official CLI: forward and trigger webhook events locally, tail API request logs in real time, and create, read, update or delete Stripe objects to debug payment integrations. Needs a Stripe account; run stripe login first.

MiniMax's official CLI, built for agents: chat with MiniMax models from the terminal and generate images, video and speech, plus speech transcription, image understanding and web search. Works with the international platform. Requires a MiniMax Token Plan subscription.

Draws a code change or part of a codebase as an animated architecture or data-flow diagram. The agent writes a JSON graph, validates and renders it to SVG with the PR Lens CLI, then pushes it to a prlens.dev canvas or attaches it to a GitHub, GitLab or Bitbucket pull request.

A CLI and Python library by Simon Willison: imports JSON and CSV straight into SQLite with automatic table creation, runs in-memory SQL queries over files, and supports full-text search and table transformations.

A native Go MCP server for Kubernetes and OpenShift: talks to the API server directly to create, read, update and delete any resource, view pod logs, exec commands and install Helm charts, without needing kubectl. Supports multiple clusters.

Explains a codebase, feature, command or pull request to someone new to it as a PR Lens canvas: one plain sentence first, then a walkthrough that grows the diagram from two boxes to the whole picture, delivered as a shareable link. Requires the PR Lens skill and its npx CLI.

Translation management for Ruby/Rails: statically analyzes code to find missing and unused keys, normalizes locale files, fills gaps via Google Translate, DeepL or OpenAI, and exports CSV for translators. Requires the i18n gem (Rails default) and Bundler; machine translation needs an API key.

The Linux Foundation's open-source compliance toolchain: analyzes project dependencies, scans licenses and copyrights, checks known vulnerabilities, flags policy violations and generates SBOMs and notice files. Needs Java 25 or Docker and ideally 8 GB RAM; have legal review license findings.

Unofficial Intercom CLI built with Printing Press, covering the full REST API: sync conversations and contacts for offline search, bulk-tag conversations about one incident, see customer overviews and SLA reports, and pull or push help articles. US, EU and AU regions; needs an access token.

Unofficial Freshservice CLI built with Printing Press: lets AI check an IT agent's queue, flag tickets near SLA breach, search tickets and the knowledge base, gauge team workload, spot recurring issues and KB gaps, and manage changes and assets. Needs a Freshservice account and API key.

Community-maintained GitLab MCP server: manage projects, merge requests, issues, pipelines, wikis and releases, with support for self-hosted instances and a read-only mode. Needs a GitLab personal access token or OAuth.

Microsoft's official Azure DevOps MCP server: query and act on work items, repos, pull requests, build pipelines, test plans and wikis. Sign in with a Microsoft account that has access on first use; Microsoft recommends the no-install remote version instead.

Self-hostable long-term memory for agents, offering MCP, a REST API and a web dashboard: semantic search, knowledge graph and automatic memory consolidation. Embeddings are computed locally; choose SQLite, Cloudflare or Milvus as the backend.
