Open-source topics this week

What this week looks like

This cloud is built from the most common words in the names of repositories trending on GitHub this week, sized by how often each appears. It is a picture of how projects are named, not of curated categories.

One theme dominates. “skills” (2,646) and “skill” (1,717) lead, with “agent” (1,414), “code” (1,261), and “claude” (1,072) close behind: the vocabulary of AI coding agents and the skills that extend them. Individual projects surface as their own words, like “odysseus” (1,580) and “hermes” (800), and tooling names such as “markitdown” (433) and “mcp” (204) fill out the long tail.
