19,659 stars since February, ~119/day, 1,410 forks. Different angle from the token-compression proxies: rather than compressing what goes to the model, it sandboxes tool output completely while persisting session memory and enforcing routing via MCP plus hooks across Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Copilot, Kiro and Antigravity. 135 open issues suggests the hook-based enforcement is fragile across that many hosts, which is the standing risk with anything that inserts itself between every agent and every tool call.

wanshuiyin/HERO-Anti-OverDefense went from creation to 68 stars in a single day. HERO is Hashing, Edge cases, Rubrics, Overbuild, and the claim is that agent over-engineering isn't diffuse but falls into four recognizable shapes suppressible with a portable prompt contract acr...
open-design is a local-first macOS/Windows/Linux desktop app that turns your existing coding agent into a design engine, producing prototypes, landing pages, dashboards, slides, images, and video with real HTML/PDF/PPTX/MP4 export. It runs on 25 distinct local CLI executables...
lean-ctx is a Rust-based system that sits between AI coding tools and LLMs, compressing file reads by 60-99% and shell output by 60-95% using Tree-sitter AST parsing for 18 languages. Cached re-reads cost only 13 tokens. Works as a standard MCP server with 49 tools. Compatible...
affaan-m/ECC (36.3k forks, MIT) bundles 67 agents, 284 skills, 94 legacy command shims, and "instincts", patterns learned from prior sessions with confidence scores that auto-recall when relevant, plus a .ecc/memory/ markdown vault that's explicitly cross-harness, so context s...
diegosouzapw/OmniRoute added 1,343 stars on July 20, a single MIT-licensed gateway across 268+ providers (50+ free) and 500+ models including Claude, GPT, Gemini, Kimi K3, GLM and DeepSeek, wired for Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Cline and Copilot. Quota-aware automatic fallback...
Anthropic invented a file convention. It's now shipping GA inside a competitor's product. Nobody wrote a spec, nobody held a standards meeting, it just happened. On July 29, GitHub made agent skills and MCP server support generally available in Copilot code review for all Pro,...
