Tools

Google's official open-source terminal agent using Gemini models with a 1M-token context. Built-in Google Search, file and shell tools, plus MCP support. Personal Google accounts get a free quota.

Open-source local design workbench and Claude Design alternative: builds web and mobile prototypes, slides, images and motion videos from a DESIGN.md system, exporting HTML, PDF, PPTX or MP4. MCP lets Claude Code and Codex use it. Needs the macOS or Windows app; Linux from source.

Helps agents build frontends that don't look templated: picks a design direction first, then tunes layout variance, motion intensity and information density. Also includes redesign audits, minimalist and brutalist styles, and design reference generation.

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.

Official PaddleOCR MCP: text recognition and layout parsing for images and PDFs (PP-OCR, PP-StructureV3, PaddleOCR-VL), returning text or Markdown. Runs inference locally, or calls the official API or a self-hosted service.

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.

Official MCP reference server for reading, writing, editing, moving and searching local files within an allowlist of directories, adjustable at runtime through Roots. Handy for organizing documents from a desktop client.

Provides a sequential_thinking tool that guides the model to break complex problems into revisable, branching steps. Good for planning, analysis and tasks that need careful iteration. Official MCP reference server.

Gives agents the current time and IANA time zone conversion, detecting the system time zone automatically. No API key needed. Official MCP reference server, written in Python.

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.

MCP server built into the adaptive Python scraping framework Scrapling: supports plain HTTP requests, browser rendering and stealth fetching, and uses CSS selectors to pass only the target content to the AI, saving tokens and filtering out prompt injection.

Turns natural-language descriptions, Mermaid or a real code repo into interactive single-file HTML diagrams: architecture, flowcharts, sequence diagrams, data flows and state machines. Validates output automatically and exports PNG or SVG.

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.

Frontend design polish skill: one skill with 24 commands such as polish, audit, critique and typeset, plus 61 deterministic rules that catch typical AI-generated UI problems, with live iteration in the browser. Works with Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and others.

Frontend design quality plugin: one skill plus 24 commands (audit, critique, polish and more) and 61 built-in deterministic rules that find common design flaws in AI-generated interfaces and fix them one by one.

Rust CLI proxy that filters and compresses command output before it reaches the agent's context, covering git, tests, grep, ls and 100+ other commands and cutting bash output by up to about 90%. Hooks automatically rewrite commands run by Claude Code, Codex and others.

General-purpose command-line fuzzy finder for any text input, such as file lists, command history or processes. Besides the interactive UI it has a non-interactive --filter mode, plus shell key bindings and completion.

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+.

Multi-agent orchestration framework formerly called Claude Flow: ruflo init gives Claude Code nearly 100 specialized subagents, swarm coordination, cross-session vector memory and hooks; add --codex to configure Codex instead. Also works as a standalone MCP server or plugin marketplace.

Multi-agent orchestration framework for Claude Code and Codex, formerly Claude Flow: swarm coordination, self-learning memory and cross-machine federated communication. The marketplace offers 30+ plugins; full features need npx ruflo init.

Curated index of Claude skills with about 30 practical skills in the repo (resume tailoring, content research and writing, file organization, meeting analysis) plus 800+ automation skills that reach third-party apps via Composio, which need Rube MCP and account authorization.

Reads messy invoices and receipts (PDFs, scans, screenshots), extracts vendor, date and amount, renames and files them by vendor, category or year, keeps originals and can export a CSV for your accountant. Needs an agent with local file access; no account required.

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.
