How it works

  1. data/agents.yml is the curated source list.
  2. A daily GitHub Actions workflow (.github/workflows/update.yml) runs the Go updater.
  3. The updater fetches live repo metadata via the GitHub GraphQL API in one batched query.
  4. Star counts are appended to data/history.jsonl for 7-day delta computation.
  5. This README.md and data/metadata.json are regenerated and committed back to the repo.
  6. That push triggers Cloudflare Pages, which runs go run . -build to render the dashboard from the committed data — no API token needed at build time. See docs/DEPLOY.md.

Δ7d: Change in stars over the past 7 days; — means fewer than 7 days of history.

Contributing

Inclusion criteria — a repo belongs on this list when it is:

  1. A developer tool built around AI — something a developer uses to build software, where an LLM is central to what it does. That covers agents that write, edit, or review code; agent development environments that run and coordinate them; and AI-assisted editors, terminals, and review tools. Libraries, SDKs, model weights, and prompt or skill collections are out of scope — this list ranks tools you use, not building blocks you import. General-purpose assistants and multi-agent "digital workforce" apps are out as well, even when one of their agents can write code — the tool itself has to be aimed at building software.
  2. At least 1,000 GitHub stars — a hard floor, enforced by the updater. An entry below it is dropped from the ranking automatically, so the threshold is never waived for an individual entry.
  3. Open source and actively maintained — no push in 6 months means the entry is dropped. The daily run flags anything past 3 months for review, so the ranking reflects tools people can actually use today.

Archived or abandoned repos are kept only when they are historically significant, and are marked as such in data/agents.yml.

Add an agent to data/agents.yml:

agents:
  - owner: github-username-or-org
    repo: repository-name
    tags: [terminal, byo-model, interactive, community]

Tags describe a tool across five facets — the dashboard filters on them, OR within a facet and AND across facets:

Facet Tags
Surface (at least one) terminal · editor-plugin · ide · desktop · web · self-hosted
Model access byo-model · single-vendor · local-models
Workflow interactive · autonomous · review · app-builder · research · orchestration
Integration mcp · acp · headless
Origin (at most one) vendor · community

Apply a tag only when the repo's own README, docs, or topics back it up. See docs/CONTRIBUTING.md for what each tag means.

Open a PR. The next daily run picks it up automatically.

PRs are validated automatically by CI (go run . -check): owner/repo must be non-empty and look like a real GitHub slug, every tag must come from the vocabulary above with at least one surface tag and at most one origin tag, and duplicates (case-insensitive) are rejected.
