Inspired by Utz, I ported the old Briggs lab tools to ChimeraX in a single bundle named Geopickr, with some extra utilities (geopicking on morphometrics surfaces!). I've submitted it to the toolshed, but in the meantime: github.com/baradlab/Geo...

Claude Code is pretty good at writing ChimeraX plugins! This one is almost entirely good context and some prompting: github.com/uermel/chime... Most likely older plugins could be ported over that way relatively easily.

As in Kun Qu's place object script?

Yep - started as a direct tkinter to qt port then added a few extra features but overall it's still Kun Qu's stuff.

Awesome! I was really missing it in chimeraX (and without using .motl files). Will definitely be installing this!

I started with just a basic port (plus stopgap star files), but will start adding in more modern/standard output formats over the next week or three.
