Hottest Repos

  • warpdotdev/warp — 48.8K stars (+8,262 today). Second day on the throne. Warp's "agentic development environment" is sustaining absurd momentum — 8K stars today after 12K yesterday. The Rust terminal that orchestrates Claude Code, Codex, and Gemini agents for full dev workflows is now approaching 50K stars in two days of viral growth. The "terminal as agent orchestrator" positioning is clearly landing. https://github.com/warpdotdev/warp

  • mattpocock/skills — 48.9K stars (+6,175 today, +24.7K this week). Closing on 50K. From 23K six days ago to nearly 49K — Matt Pocock's .claude directory has more than doubled in a week. The Claude Code skills ecosystem's first megastar is about to cross 50K before the week ends. At this pace, it may catch Warp. https://github.com/mattpocock/skills

  • forrestchang/andrej-karpathy-skills — 102.3K stars (+24.1K this week). Crossed 100K. Called it yesterday — the single CLAUDE.md file has hit six figures. A cultural artifact more than a technical resource at this point. The most-starred .claude file in history. https://github.com/forrestchang/andrej-karpathy-skills

  • TauricResearch/TradingAgents — 57.3K stars (+2,203 today). Re-surging hard. After plateauing at ~55K yesterday, TradingAgents jumped 2.2K today — its biggest daily gain in weeks. The multi-agent LLM trading framework is riding renewed interest, possibly from the FinceptTerminal wave (see below). Finance + AI is heating up again. https://github.com/TauricResearch/TradingAgents

  • obra/superpowers — 174.4K stars (+1,623 today). The 174K methodology. Jesse Vincent's coding agent methodology keeps grinding upward. A philosophy repo with more stars than nearly every tool on this page. Still the quiet standard-setter. https://github.com/obra/superpowers

AI & ML

  • huggingface/ml-intern — 7.7K stars (+6.4K this week). HuggingFace's autonomous ML engineer. Reads papers, trains models, ships to production. Runs 300-iteration agentic loops with doom-loop detection. The "AI that does ML research" category just got its first serious open-source entry, and the week-over-week growth says the community agrees. https://github.com/huggingface/ml-intern

  • Fincept-Corporation/FinceptTerminal — 18.3K stars (+5,117 this week). New — open-source Bloomberg terminal. Python/Qt finance app with market analytics, investment research, and economic data. Tagged with AI agents and algorithmic trading. The open-source Bloomberg alternative that finance-curious devs have been waiting for. Jumped 5K this week alone. https://github.com/Fincept-Corporation/FinceptTerminal

  • AIDC-AI/Pixelle-Video — 8.4K stars (+2.4K this week). Text-to-finished-video, still climbing. ComfyUI-based engine that produces complete short videos from a text prompt — script, images, voice, music, editing. Third week trending. The pipeline is production-ready enough that people are using it for real content. https://github.com/AIDC-AI/Pixelle-Video

  • microsoft/VibeVoice — 46K stars (+586 today). Cooling but massive. Down from 1.7K/day to 586/day — the explosive phase is over, but 46K stars for an open-source voice AI framework (ASR + TTS + streaming) is a permanent fixture. https://github.com/microsoft/VibeVoice

  • lsdefine/GenericAgent — 8.5K stars (+2.4K this week). Eleventh week trending. The self-evolving agent with skill-tree growth and 6x token efficiency. Durability is the story here — few repos sustain weekly trending for this long. https://github.com/lsdefine/GenericAgent

Developer Tools

  • lukilabs/craft-agents-oss — 5.5K stars (+314 today). New — agent-native IDE from Craft.do. A beautiful desktop app built on Claude Agent SDK + Pi SDK. The pitch: tell your agent "add Linear as a source" and it autodiscovers APIs, reads docs, sets up credentials. No config files. Skills and sources are first-class concepts. This is what "agent-native software" looks like beyond the terminal. https://github.com/lukilabs/craft-agents-oss

  • cc-switch — 56.5K stars (+971 today). Unstoppable. The Tauri/Rust AI CLI control panel gained another 1K today, now at 56.5K. From 52.8K four days ago. The "multi-agent desktop manager" category is infrastructure. https://github.com/farion1231/cc-switch

  • iOfficeAI/AionUi — 23.2K stars (+241 today). The 24/7 cowork app. Free, local, open-source app supporting Gemini CLI, Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode, and more. The "always-on agent dashboard" niche is crowded but AionUi is holding its position at 23K+. https://github.com/iOfficeAI/AionUi

  • browserbase/skills — 781 stars (+54 today). New — web browsing skills for Claude Code. Claude Agent SDK-powered browser automation with anti-bot stealth, CAPTCHA solving, and residential proxies. 10 skills including UI testing, cookie sync, and serverless browser functions. Small but significant: this is the "Claude Code meets Playwright" bridge. https://github.com/browserbase/skills

  • ComposioHQ/awesome-codex-skills — 5.2K stars (+611 today). Codex skills catching up. Past 5K now. The Codex skills ecosystem is building momentum, though still an order of magnitude behind Claude Code skills. https://github.com/ComposioHQ/awesome-codex-skills

Hidden Gems

  • 1jehuang/jcode — 1.8K stars (+670 today). Rust coding agent harness built for performance. Uses 27.8MB RAM per session (vs hundreds for competitors), sub-second boot, designed for multi-session workflows. The pitch is "raise the skill ceiling" with infinite customizability. If you're running multiple agents simultaneously, the resource efficiency angle matters. https://github.com/1jehuang/jcode

  • Gentleman-Programming/engram — 3K stars. Persistent memory for AI coding agents. Single Go binary, SQLite + FTS5, works with any MCP-compatible agent (Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, Cursor, etc.). 18 MCP tools for save/search/session lifecycle. The "your agent forgets everything" problem stated cleanly and solved with zero dependencies. https://github.com/Gentleman-Programming/engram

  • Agent-Field/agentfield — 1.6K stars. AI agents as production APIs. Go-based control plane that turns agent logic into REST endpoints with cryptographic audit trails, human-in-the-loop pauses, and canary deploys. Think "Kubernetes for agents" — routing, coordination, memory, and identity built in. Early but the architecture is serious. https://github.com/Agent-Field/agentfield

Notable Trends

  • The agent infrastructure stack is crystallizing. This week's trending list reads like a complete platform: orchestration (Warp), skills/config (Pocock, Karpathy), memory (Engram), desktop management (cc-switch, AionUi, Craft Agents), web automation (Browserbase), backend deployment (AgentField), and performance harnesses (jcode). We're past the "can agents code?" phase into "how do we run 50 agents in production?"

  • Finance AI is resurging. TradingAgents re-accelerating (+2.2K today), FinceptTerminal exploding (+5K this week), and TradingAgents-CN holding steady at 25K. The AI trading/finance category is seeing its second wave, likely driven by retail interest in AI-powered market analysis tools.
