Hottest Repos

  • Panniantong/Agent-Reach — 2,150 stars today (31.9k total). Re-accelerating hard. After days of steady 1k/day, it doubled to 2.1k today. The "give AI agents internet eyes" toolkit now covers 12+ platforms with zero API fees. 5.9k stars this week. The agent perception layer is infrastructure now, not a novelty.

  • iptv-org/iptv — 1,196 stars today (123.9k total). Fourth day of surge, but cooling. Peak was 2,650/day two days ago; now settling around 1.2k. The multi-day acceleration pattern suggests a viral social media moment is winding down. Still 5.4k this week.

  • addyosmani/agent-skills — 11k stars this week (61.1k total). Past 61k. Seventh day tracking. The canonical agent skills framework gained another 900 stars. It's no longer trending — it's established. Weekly numbers still enormous at 11k.

  • chopratejas/headroom — 10.7k stars this week (29.9k total). Knocking on 30k. The context compression engine (60-95% token reduction) will cross 30k any hour. From 6k three weeks ago to 30k. The fastest-growing AI infra repo of Q2.

  • apple/container — 10.5k stars this week (37.8k total). Stabilizing at altitude. Apple's Docker alternative for macOS had its initial explosion and is now cruising. Still the top weekly gainer. The "Apple owns the dev toolchain on its silicon" story is settled.

AI & ML

  • OpenBMB/VoxCPM — 413 stars today (30k total). New to digest. Tokenizer-free TTS that generates speech directly in continuous latent space — no discrete tokens. 2B params, 30 languages, voice cloning + creative voice design from text descriptions alone. 48kHz studio quality, RTF ~0.3 on 4090. Apache-2.0. This is the state of the art for open TTS.

  • microsoft/fara — 101 stars today (5.8k total). New to digest. Microsoft's 7B agentic model for computer use — operates directly on screenshots, predicts click coordinates. Completes web tasks in ~16 steps (vs 41 for comparable systems). Trained on 145k synthetic trajectories from Magentic-One. 73.5% on WebVoyager. Small enough for on-device deployment. The "computer use" race is heating up.

  • NVIDIA/SkillSpector — 4.6k stars this week (6.9k total). Seventh day, approaching 7k. The agent skill security scanner keeps climbing as the skills ecosystem balloons (agent-skills 61k, pm-skills 19k, taste-skill 44k). Finding that 26% of skills contain vulnerabilities. Becoming mandatory infra.

  • rohitg00/ai-engineering-from-scratch — 833 stars today (33.7k total). 503 lessons across 20 phases teaching AI engineering from math foundations to autonomous agents. Multi-language (Python, TS, Rust, Julia). Every lesson produces reusable artifacts. The "learn AI properly" curriculum at scale.

  • datawhalechina/hello-agents — 283 stars today (59.7k total). Chinese-language agent tutorial with 59k+ stars. Five-part curriculum covering ReAct, memory, RAG, multi-agent comms. The non-English AI education boom is real.

Developer Tools

  • n0-computer/iroh — 326 stars today (9.2k total). New to digest. "IP addresses break, dial keys instead." Rust P2P networking stack that replaces IP addresses with cryptographic keys. QUIC transport, hole-punching, relay fallback, composable protocols (blobs, gossip, docs). Just hit 1.0. Dual Apache-2.0/MIT. The Rust networking renaissance continues.

  • ogulcancelik/herdr — 215 stars today (6k total). New to digest. Terminal multiplexer built for the agent era — like tmux but agent-aware. Shows blocked/working/done/idle status for Claude Code, Copilot CLI, Devin, and 10+ others. Persistent sessions, mouse-native, socket API for orchestration. Rust. The answer to "I have 5 agents running, which one needs me?"

  • dmtrKovalenko/fff — 202 stars today (8.9k total). Fast file search for AI agents. Persistent warm index beats ripgrep on repeated searches. Frecency ranking, git-aware, definition-first hinting. Powers file search in Claude Code, Codex, Cursor via MCP. The "make agents faster at finding files" niche is now a category.

  • alibaba/zvec — 188 stars today (10.4k total). Alibaba's embedded vector database — in-process, no server needed. Dense + sparse vectors, full-text search, hybrid retrieval in single queries. SDKs for Python, Node, Go, Rust, Dart. Apache-2.0. The "SQLite of vector search" space gets another serious contender.

Hidden Gems

  • moorcheh-ai/memanto — 906 stars. Active memory agent for AI tools — not passive storage but remember/recall/answer operations with 13 typed memory categories, zero-latency indexing, conflict detection. Works with Claude Code, Cursor, Codex. Docker or cloud. MIT. The agent memory problem needs more solutions like this.

  • music-assistant/server — 2.5k stars, 157/day. Self-hosted music library manager connecting streaming services to smart speakers. 923 releases. Apache-2.0. The kind of mature, quietly excellent project that rarely trends but suddenly gets discovered.

  • rmyndharis/OpenWA — 9k stars, 185/day. Self-hosted WhatsApp API gateway. REST API, webhooks, multi-account, dashboard. NestJS/TypeScript. MIT. For developers tired of Meta's official API pricing and restrictions.

Notable Trends

  • Agent infrastructure is eating GitHub. Today's trending is dominated by tools that make agents faster (fff), more secure (SkillSpector), better at remembering (memanto), easier to manage (herdr), and able to see the internet (Agent-Reach). The "agent skills" ecosystem now exceeds 120k combined stars across agent-skills, pm-skills, and taste-skill. We're past the "build agents" phase — we're in "make agents reliable."

  • The 30k club grows. headroom (context compression), Agent-Reach (agent perception), and VoxCPM (TTS) all crossed or are crossing 30k this week. The bar for "significant open-source project" keeps rising. Three weeks ago headroom had 6k stars.
