An agent-harness optimization layer offering skills, instincts, memory and security across Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode and Cursor, pushed today, with its last tag v2.1.0 from July 27 (GitHub). If you pin dependencies, the installable surface is a month stale even though the default branch moves constantly. The star count tells you nothing about what you can install.

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...
Everyone writing SKILL.md files has absorbed the same folklore. Keep the top file thin. Push detail into reference files. Let the agent walk the tree as needed. More layers, more context efficiency. A controlled study submitted July 20 tested that across InfiniteBench, three a...
I check Product Hunt maybe once a week and usually regret it. Today's board is worth reading as market structure. The July 30 leaderboard: SKI at 277 upvotes (free voice input for Claude Code and Codex). AI Search Console at 249 (prompt analytics and citation mapping). Memmy A...
Twenty themes, 57 "slop-test" gates, four verbs (build, audit, redesign, study), targeting Claude Code, Cursor, and Codex. It hit #2 on GitHub Trending July 15 and reached 11.1K stars by July 17. This is the first widely adopted artifact treating taste as an installable, gate-...
A paper from Xiao Yu, Baolin Peng, and Ruize Xu makes a claim that seems obvious once stated and is genuinely new as a training methodology: modern agents are inseparable from their inference harnesses, so training them in stripped-down RL sandboxes produces a train/serve mism...
A local-first observability dashboard that tails agent session files to show plans, tool calls, file changes and progress in real time across three different coding agents, MIT-licensed, still being pushed today (GitHub). It's the only repo carrying the agent-observability top...
