GitHub Trending — 2026-07-10
TL;DR
The "agent skills" ecosystem dominates today's list — three of the top ten repos (addyosmani/agent-skills, mattpocock/skills, obra/superpowers) are all about packaging reusable skills and methodology for AI coding agents, alongside an MCP server for terminal/filesystem access. Otherwise it's a strong showing for long-established C++ and systems infrastructure (Abseil, yaml-cpp, Catch2, Asio, TypeScript), plus Bun continuing its steady climb.
Top 10
1. wonderwhy-er/DesktopCommanderMCP (+349 stars today)
An MCP server that gives Claude terminal control and file system access, part of the growing toolkit for letting AI agents operate directly on a machine.
2. oven-sh/bun (+307 stars today)
The fast all-in-one JavaScript runtime, bundler, test runner, and package manager, still picking up steady daily interest.
3. abseil/abseil-cpp (+106 stars today)
Google's collection of common C++ libraries used across many large-scale C++ codebases.
4. addyosmani/agent-skills (+1,114 stars today)
A collection of production-grade engineering skills meant to be plugged into AI coding agents, part of today's broader "agent skills" trend.
5. jbeder/yaml-cpp (+65 stars today)
A long-standing YAML parser and emitter library for C++.
6. mattpocock/skills (+1,663 stars today)
A set of configuration utilities and skills aimed at engineers, riding the same agent-skills wave as several other repos on today's list.
7. obra/superpowers (+969 stars today)
An agentic skills framework paired with a software development methodology, aimed at giving coding agents more structured, reusable capabilities.
8. microsoft/TypeScript (+166 stars today)
The TypeScript compiler itself — a superset of JavaScript that compiles to clean JS output — still a steady daily gainer.
9. catchorg/Catch2 (+69 stars today)
A modern C++ testing framework supporting multiple C++ standards.
10. chriskohlhoff/asio (+87 stars today)
A C++ library for network and low-level I/O programming, widely used as the basis for asynchronous C++ networking code.
