Tools

Command-line audio and video downloader supporting thousands of sites: pick formats and quality, grab subtitles and metadata, and merge or transcode with FFmpeg. The actively maintained fork of youtube-dl.

166 research skills maintained by K-Dense (formerly Claude Scientific Skills), spanning bioinformatics, cheminformatics, clinical research, materials and physics, including unified access to 78 public databases such as PubChem and UniProt. Works with Claude Code, Codex and Cursor.

Local MCP server built into Browser Use: lets agents navigate, click, type and extract page content, or hand multi-step tasks to the built-in browser agent. Bring your own OpenAI or Anthropic API key.

Official MCP reference server for local Git repos: view status and diffs, stage and commit, create and switch branches, and search the commit log by date. Written in Python and runs with uvx; still in early development.

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.

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.

Command-line edition of the open-source OpenBB investment research platform: query stock prices, financial statements, macroeconomic and other financial data from the terminal, and automate data pulls with Routine scripts. Officially maintained; some sources need API keys.

Teaches agents standard single-cell RNA-seq analysis with Scanpy: QC, normalization, PCA/UMAP, clustering, differential expression and plots, with ready-to-run pipeline scripts and guidance on converting Seurat and other R objects to h5ad. Needs Python 3.12+; by K-Dense.

Guides agents to the right statistical method for research data: t-tests, ANOVA, chi-square, regression and Bayesian analysis, checking assumptions, computing effect sizes and power, and reporting results in APA format. Python-based (pingouin, statsmodels); by K-Dense.

AI pair programming in your terminal: builds a repo map of the whole codebase, auto-commits changes to git, works with Claude, DeepSeek, OpenAI and almost any other model including local ones, and can run lint and tests after edits.

Removes image backgrounds with one command: single images, whole folders or watched directories, mask-only output and switchable models like U2Net and SAM. Can also run as an HTTP server or process video frames with FFmpeg. Default models run locally.

Command-line tool for bulk-downloading galleries and posts from many image hosts and social platforms, with flexible file naming and config, and yt-dlp integration for video. Main development has moved to Codeberg; the GitHub repo stays in sync.

Lets agents decompile, disassemble and query cross-references in IDA Pro, and rename variables, change types and add comments, including headless idalib mode. Requires IDA Pro 8.3+ (IDA Free is not supported); the author now recommends Hex-Rays' official IDA MCP instead.

Wraps 150+ security tools such as nmap, sqlmap and nuclei for agents to orchestrate, covering network recon, web pentesting, binary analysis and CTFs. Clone the repo, install the tools yourself and start the local server. For authorized testing only.

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.

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).

Pipes live streams from Twitch, YouTube and many other platforms to a local player, or saves them to video files with --output or --record, for keeping and re-editing replays of your own or partners' streams. Viewing needs a player like VLC. Only record content you have rights to.

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+.

Scans files and directories for personal data such as names, emails and credit card numbers using Presidio Analyzer, with configurable entity types, confidence thresholds and ignore rules. Needs Python 3.10+ and a spaCy language model.

Reads the exact position of every character, line and table cell in digital PDFs: the CLI exports layout-preserving text or CSV/JSON details, and the Python API extracts tables and form fields, ideal for invoices, statements and reports. Runs locally with Python; scans need OCR first.

Linter and formatter for 20+ SQL dialects that auto-fixes most issues and handles Jinja templating and dbt projects (dbt needs a plugin), suited to warehouse code review and CI.

Terminal tool for exploring and wrangling tabular data: opens dozens of formats including CSV, JSON, Excel and SQLite for filtering, sorting, pivots and frequency counts. --batch mode replays actions headlessly or converts file formats.
