CLI Tools
Command line utilities
ocr-and-documents
by NousResearch
Extract text from PDFs and scanned documents. Use web_extract for remote URLs, pymupdf for local text-based PDFs, marker-pdf for OCR/scanned docs. For DOCX use python-docx, for PPTX see the powerpoint skill.
obliteratus
by NousResearch
Remove refusal behaviors from open-weight LLMs using OBLITERATUS — mechanistic interpretability techniques (diff-in-means, SVD, whitened SVD, SAE decomposition, etc.) to excise guardrails while preserving reasoning. 9 CLI methods (+ 4 Python-API-only), 15 analysis modules, 116 model presets across 5 compute tiers. Use when a user wants to uncensor, abliterate, or remove refusal from an LLM.
evaluating-llms-harness
by NousResearch
Evaluates LLMs across 60+ academic benchmarks (MMLU, HumanEval, GSM8K, TruthfulQA, HellaSwag). Use when benchmarking model quality, comparing models, reporting academic results, or tracking training progress. Industry standard used by EleutherAI, HuggingFace, and major labs. Supports HuggingFace, vLLM, APIs.
pinggy-tunnel
by NousResearch
Zero-install localhost tunnels over SSH via Pinggy.
nano-pdf
by NousResearch
Edit PDFs with natural-language instructions using the nano-pdf CLI. Modify text, fix typos, update titles, and make content changes to specific pages without manual editing.
jupyter-live-kernel
by NousResearch
Use a live Jupyter kernel for stateful, iterative Python execution via hamelnb. Load this skill when the task involves exploration, iteration, or inspecting intermediate results — data science, ML experimentation, API exploration, or building up complex code step-by-step. Uses terminal to run CLI commands against a live Jupyter kernel. No new tools required.
openhue
by NousResearch
Control Philips Hue lights, rooms, and scenes via the OpenHue CLI. Turn lights on/off, adjust brightness, color, color temperature, and activate scenes.
claude-code
by NousResearch
Delegate coding tasks to Claude Code (Anthropic's CLI agent). Use for building features, refactoring, PR reviews, and iterative coding. Requires the claude CLI installed.
minecraft-modpack-server
by NousResearch
"Host modded Minecraft servers (CurseForge, Modrinth)."
ocr-and-documents
by NousResearch
Extract text from PDFs and scanned documents. Use web_extract for remote URLs, pymupdf for local text-based PDFs, marker-pdf for OCR/scanned docs. For DOCX use python-docx, for PPTX see the powerpoint skill.
huggingface-accelerate
by NousResearch
Simplest distributed training API. 4 lines to add distributed support to any PyTorch script. Unified API for DeepSpeed/FSDP/Megatron/DDP. Automatic device placement, mixed precision (FP16/BF16/FP8). Interactive config, single launch command. HuggingFace ecosystem standard.
xitter
by NousResearch
Interact with X/Twitter via the x-cli terminal client using official X API credentials. Use for posting, reading timelines, searching tweets, liking, retweeting, bookmarks, mentions, and user lookups.
apple-notes
by NousResearch
Manage Apple Notes via the memo CLI on macOS (create, view, search, edit).
native-mcp
by NousResearch
Built-in MCP (Model Context Protocol) client that connects to external MCP servers, discovers their tools, and registers them as native Hermes Agent tools. Supports stdio and HTTP transports with automatic reconnection, security filtering, and zero-config tool injection.
optimizing-attention-flash
by NousResearch
Optimizes transformer attention with Flash Attention for 2-4x speedup and 10-20x memory reduction. Use when training/running transformers with long sequences (>512 tokens), encountering GPU memory issues with attention, or need faster inference. Supports PyTorch native SDPA, flash-attn library, H100 FP8, and sliding window attention.
llama-cpp
by NousResearch
Runs LLM inference on CPU, Apple Silicon, and consumer GPUs without NVIDIA hardware. Use for edge deployment, M1/M2/M3 Macs, AMD/Intel GPUs, or when CUDA is unavailable. Supports GGUF quantization (1.5-8 bit) for reduced memory and 4-10× speedup vs PyTorch on CPU.
huggingface-hub
by NousResearch
Hugging Face Hub CLI (hf) — search, download, and upload models and datasets, manage repos, query datasets with SQL, deploy inference endpoints, manage Spaces and buckets.
openhands
by NousResearch
Delegate coding to OpenHands CLI (model-agnostic, LiteLLM).
lambda-labs-gpu-cloud
by NousResearch
Reserved and on-demand GPU cloud instances for ML training and inference. Use when you need dedicated GPU instances with simple SSH access, persistent filesystems, or high-performance multi-node clusters for large-scale training.
youtube-content
by NousResearch
Fetch YouTube video transcripts and transform them into structured content (chapters, summaries, threads, blog posts).
computer-use
by NousResearch
Drive the user's desktop in the background — clicking, typing, scrolling, dragging — without stealing the cursor, keyboard focus, or switching virtual desktops / Spaces. Cross-platform: macOS, Windows, Linux. Works with any tool-capable model. Load this skill whenever the computer_use tool is available.
codex
by NousResearch
Delegate coding tasks to OpenAI Codex CLI agent. Use for building features, refactoring, PR reviews, and batch issue fixing. Requires the codex CLI and a git repository.
antigravity-cli
