Stanford Paper2Agent turns research papers into MCP agents for Claude Code

Stanford’s Paper2Agent (Nature, Sept 16) converts a paper and its codebase into an MCP server so agents like Claude Code can reproduce analyses and run methods on new data in plain language. It’s MIT-licensed, with demo servers for AlphaGenome and Scanpy on Hugging Face.

unslop is an open skill that strips the vibecoded look from AI-built UIs in Claude Code and Codex

New this week under CC BY 4.0, /unslop this dashboard audits a screen for purple gradients, glows, emoji labels, shouty copy and uneven spacing, proposes a direction from your product, then waits for approval before fixing it in nine passes from spacing to motion, on code or a live URL. It asks before any paid image generation, and can render a short before and after story video if you install Playwright and ffmpeg (walkthrough)…

Tadpole is a from-scratch agent in 3,500 lines of Python, with LoRA adapters that teach Qwen3-4B tool use

Shown on HN Oct 31 under MIT, the framework free agent handles files, shell, web search and session compaction from a terminal or Telegram, on any OpenAI compatible API or a local Qwen3 4B, and its repo logs each build stage with tests and measurements. Its released adapters lift Qwen3 4B from 0.419 to 0.774 pass@1 on held out task types, but that's the author's own 140 task benchmark measured only inside Tadpole's harness (adapter)…

Archwhere puts every coding-agent PR on an architecture map that the agents keep up to date

Shown on HN Oct 31 under MIT, npx archwhere init drafts a one file architecture.json from your repo, a GitHub Action comments each PR with the components and security zones it touches, and archwhere check fails CI when files go unmapped, with check fix and a SKILL.md so agents maintain the map themselves. npx archwhere mission adds a local UI where component threads become GitHub issues your agent answers, and only you can merge…
