Tools

ModelScope's official training framework for LLMs and multimodal models: the swift command covers pretraining, fine-tuning, RL, inference, evaluation, quantization and deployment for 600+ text and 400+ multimodal models, with Megatron parallelism and a web UI. Usually needs a GPU.

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.

Loads and unloads environment variables per directory: reads .envrc (and optionally .env) when you enter a project and restores the environment when you leave, so configs and secrets do not leak between projects. Hook it into bash, zsh, fish or another shell first.

Open-source zero-shot TTS via f5-tts_infer-cli: from a few seconds of reference audio it reads Chinese or English text in the same voice, handy for lessons and videos. Needs Python, PyTorch and FFmpeg, ideally a GPU. Pretrained models are non-commercial; get consent before cloning a voice.

Turns 18 kinds of sources, including doc sites, GitHub repos, PDFs and videos, into skill packages for Claude and other platforms, or exports RAG chunks and vector store data. Optional MCP server, and it can call a local agent like Claude Code to enrich content. Needs Python 3.10+.

Security baseline and compliance checks for AWS, Azure, GCP, Kubernetes, GitHub, M365 and more, with built-in CIS, NIST, PCI-DSS, SOC 2 and other frameworks. Generates reports or opens a local dashboard. Configure credentials for each cloud account first.

Writes precise prompts for a specific AI tool: identifies the target tool, extracts your intent, asks at most three questions if details are missing, then outputs a lean, paste-ready prompt. Covers dozens of tools including ChatGPT, Claude Code, Cursor, Midjourney and Sora.

Command-line framework for warehouse modeling and ELT transformations: write models in SQL and let dbt handle dependencies, data tests and documentation. v2 is rewritten in Rust as a single binary. Maintained by dbt Labs; needs a data warehouse connection.

Classic network discovery and security auditing tool: host discovery, port scanning, service version and OS detection, plus vulnerability checks with NSE scripts. Only scan networks you are authorized to test.

Nearly 100 skills spanning the AI research workflow: ideation and literature review, fine-tuning and post-training, distributed training, inference serving, evaluation, interpretability and paper writing, tied together by an autoresearch orchestration skill.

Plugin marketplace for AI research with nearly 100 skills in 23 categories, from ideation, fine-tuning and post-training to distributed training, inference serving, evaluation and paper writing, coordinated end to end by the autoresearch skill.

MiniMax's official Excel skill: read, analyze, create, edit and validate xlsx files and fix broken formulas. Edits existing files at the XML level to keep formatting, formulas and pivot tables; writes results as formulas with finance-style color coding. Needs Python (pandas); LibreOffice optional.

PostgreSQL command-line client with smart autocompletion and syntax highlighting. Compatible with psql environment variables, and -c runs a statement and exits, so agents can query databases non-interactively.

Scans container images, filesystem directories and SBOMs for known vulnerabilities across major Linux distro packages and many language ecosystems, ranks risk by EPSS and KEV, and filters results with OpenVEX. Good for vulnerability gates in CI. Maintained by Anchore.

curl for gRPC: call any gRPC method with JSON, including bidirectional streaming, browse service definitions via server reflection, proto source files or protosets, with TLS and mutual TLS support.

Simon Willison's LLM CLI and Python library: call OpenAI, Claude, Gemini and local models from the terminal, with conversations logged to SQLite automatically, plus embeddings, structured extraction, tool calling and a plugin system.

Estimates cloud costs of Terraform, Terragrunt, CloudFormation and AWS CDK changes before deployment and checks them against FinOps policies, in the terminal, editor, AI agents or CI. Requires an Infracost account; a free tier is available.

A du replacement written in Rust that shows disk usage as a directory tree with proportion bars, making large files and folders easy to spot. Filter by depth, count or regex, and output JSON with -j for agents to parse.

ByteDance's open-source, general software engineering agent: trae-cli edits files and runs commands from natural language, supports multiple model providers and MCP, and records full execution trajectories. Transparent design suits agent research and customization. Needs your own model API key.

MySQL terminal client with smart autocompletion and syntax highlighting, also compatible with MariaDB and TiDB. Supports --execute and batch mode with CSV or table output, so agents can run SQL directly.

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).

Connects to the Arize Phoenix observability platform so agents can query LLM traces and sessions, manage prompts, browse datasets and read experiment evaluation results. Maintained by Arize; needs a self-hosted or cloud Phoenix instance.

Publishes SQLite databases as browsable, queryable web pages and JSON APIs, with SQL queries, metadata and plugins, and deploys to Cloud Run and other platforms with datasette publish. Great for data exploration and data journalism. Needs Python 3.10+.

GitHub's official terminal coding agent, sharing its harness with the Copilot coding agent and shipping with the GitHub MCP built in. Work with repos, issues and PRs in natural language, approving each action before it runs. Requires a Copilot subscription.
