GitHub Trending — 2026-08-14
TL;DR
Python and TypeScript dominate today's list, with AI agents and agent tooling as the clear throughline — browser automation for agents, shared-memory agent workspaces, and RAG engines all make an appearance. A viral outlier tops the chart: a Claude Code diagram-design toolkit picked up over 3,600 stars in a single day, far outpacing everything else. Security/OSINT tooling (email verification, attack-surface mapping) also shows up twice in the top 5.
Top 10
1. cathrynlavery/diagram-design (+3,651 stars today)
A self-contained HTML/SVG library of 29 editorial diagram types built for Claude Code, positioned as a cleaner alternative to typical Mermaid-generated diagrams.
2. cactus-compute/needle (+661 stars today)
A 14MB foundation model designed to run on tiny devices — phones, wearables, smart home hardware, and robots — for on-device AI without cloud dependency.
3. megadose/holehe (+427 stars today)
An OSINT tool that checks whether an email address is registered across many platforms, useful for security research and reconnaissance.
4. macro-inc/macro (+435 stars today)
A Rust-based unified workspace app bundling email, chat, docs, tasks, agents, calls, and CRM into a single product.
5. smicallef/spiderfoot (+292 stars today)
An automated OSINT reconnaissance tool for threat intelligence gathering and mapping an organization's attack surface.
6. citrolabs/ego-lite (+153 stars today)
A browser built for AI agents to run browser automation, designed to share logged-in browser sessions/state directly with agents.
7. holaboss-ai/holaOS (+769 stars today)
An open-source "all in one" AI agent workspace that runs agents across tools, apps, browsers, and files with shared memory between them.
8. github/spec-kit (+1,147 stars today)
GitHub's own toolkit for getting started with Spec-Driven Development, already a large, well-established project with 128k+ stars.
9. lightningpixel/modly (+580 stars today)
A desktop app that generates 3D models from images or text prompts using local AI, running entirely on the user's own GPU.
10. infiniflow/ragflow (+474 stars today)
A leading open-source Retrieval-Augmented Generation engine that combines RAG with agent capabilities, already a mature project with 88k+ stars.
