Chat Menus

Chat Menus is a nice way to access sheet buttons without having to open it.

Chat_Menus#5E have a couple of examples, like a NPC Statblock, or a Chat_Menus#Spellblock.

NPC Statblock, Abilities & Spells

Source: Universal NPC Statblock Abilities and Spells Chat Menus for D&D 5e sheet — No API or Stylus required! by Jarren

There is a way to generate Universal NPC Skills & Spells chat menus, without using any Stylus extensions or API scripts. These are ready to use as is and will generate a chat menu with buttons, and only display abilities and spells that exist on the character sheet (up to 10 in each category), and won't display categories or spells levels that the character doesn't have. Caveat: to use these in a macro, you have to call them from a second macro because the &{noerror}} doesn't work from a single macro call directly.

The simple macros are great and easy to use, but will output all abilities or spells on a character sheet. The advanced macros take some work to set up (copying from here to a macro mule) but allow for more customization as well as creating more dynamic chat menus that can output individual categories.

API

On the Script Index, there are many API made for 5E listed, and a number of them can be used to extend the normal macro language.

ChatSetAttr, TokenMod, PowerCards, GroupInitiative, GroupCheck and ScriptCards are some popular API that can quite easily be used with 5E, and helps for creating various macros or edits stats.
