00:00 Welcome back to GitHub Awesome. This is GitHub trending weekly number 53. 35 trending open source projects on GitHub right now. Let’s go. Anatomy is an agent skill that turns technical ideas into interactive isometric illustrations. Ask it to explain a rate limiter and it builds a little machine with moving parts and live readouts. The result can be a standalone SVG, an HTML page, or a React component. For effects like water, light, or exhaust, it can add WebGL to

00:31 the drawing and check the geometry for mistakes. Telory gives you a personal AI assistant in your own Cloudflare account. Chat with it, save notes and tasks, organize projects, and schedule reminders that run even when your browser is closed. It remembers useful details and you can inspect, edit, or delete those memories. One command deploys the app with no server run by the Telory developers and no telemetry. DSBot is a plugin that turns Deep Seek

01:02 harness into a team of your own AI bots. Each bot is a long-running assistant with its own model and its own memory kept as markdown files you can open and edit. A main bot called Chief manages the rest and walks you through setup. Drop bots into a group chat and an admin bot answers by default, pulling in specialists when it needs them, or you can mention one directly. Mailchimp is a self-hosted newsletter app that sends through Amazon SES for about 10 cents per thousand emails. So,

01:33 10,000 readers getting four issues a month runs about $4. You write in an editor with live preview and it checks for an unsubscribe link and a verified domain before anything goes out. Sends go out in batches and it pauses itself if bounces or complaints climb too high. ManimGX lets you make math explainers and 3D animations in Python. It follows Manim’s API with a Rust GPU renderer built for fast video output.

02:03 Equations and plots can share a scene with meshes, surfaces, and moving cameras. You can also run scenes in a browser with WebGPU. While storyboard and layout checks help coding agents see what their code actually drew. Want to try an Android game on your iPhone? Husk offers two ways. For supported 64-bit games, it runs the game’s Android code on the iPhone’s processor while translating the graphics, sound, and input around it. For other apps, it can boot a full Android system through QEMU, though

02:34 that’s slower. Add an APK and launch it full screen. Setup requires side-loading Husk and enabling JIT. ESP32 iPhone agent lets an AI model use a real iPhone with a $7 ESP32-S3 board as its hands. The phone mirrors its screen to a computer over AirPlay, so the model can see it. The board plugs into the phone as a regular USB mouse and keyboard, and with assistive touch on, every click becomes a tap. A planner model writes the steps, and an

03:04 actor model takes each action from the latest screenshot. Dory is a canvas-style design editor you can run on your own server. You can start without an account with guest designs saved in your browser. Background removal runs there, too, alongside animation and video export. It has layers, masks, curved text, 27 entrance and exit animations, and background removal that runs right in the browser. Teams can edit together in real time. An AI-generated UI can look fine until a

03:35 button is too small or text spills out of a card. Lint Apple checks a running page against your UI rules and reports the element, measured value, and suggested fix. It covers fonts, contrast, control size, and screen bounds with optional checks for spacing and alignment. Run from the command line or inside Playwright, where findings fail the test. Robot Heads is a React component library that draws animated robot heads, each with a TV-style body and an LED face to show what an AI agent is doing.

04:07 It has nine states, including thinking, searching, speaking, and error. Each one gets its own face, motion, and light color, and a short glitch plays when the state changes. Everything renders on a plain 2D canvas with no WebGL and no runtime dependencies. Finder Menu is a small Swift tool that adds the right-click options macOS Finder never shipped with. Right-click empty space in a folder, and you can create a new file with any extension, open a terminal right there, or open the

04:38 folder in VS Code, Cursor, Zed, or Xcode. It can also copy the folder’s path, or move up to the parent folder. It runs as a sandboxed Finder extension, plus a tiny helper app. Dig up is a macOS menu bar app for searching your files by what’s inside them, built on Google DeepMind’s embedding Gemma 2 running through llama.cpp. Describe what you want in plain words, and it finds the matching photo, PDF page, document, or code file. It can even jump to the right moment in a video

05:08 or podcast. Text, images, audio, and video all share one index, and nothing leaves your Mac. Open Film lets a coding agent build a video, then gives you an editor to change it. The agent makes shots as web pages and mixes them with footage, images, and sound on an HTML timeline. In Studio, you can move elements, change text and colors, trim clips, and export the result. The agent can also inspect frames for missing media, broken fonts, and text cut off at the edges.

05:40 Yingshia is a native Apple player for TV box subscriptions. Add your own JSON subscription or M3U playlist, and it organizes live channels and on-demand catalogs with one search across your sources. It uses Swift UI and AVKit with a Mac app and preview builds for iPhone, iPad, and Apple TV. It supplies no media itself. What you can watch depends on the sources you add. SQLite Multi-Writer lets many threads or processes write to one SQLite database at the same time without changing SQLite

06:12 itself. It loads as a VFS layer and gives each writer its own write-ahead log. At commit, writes that touch different pages go through without waiting. If two writes touch the same page, the second one is told to retry. The file stays a normal SQLite database. Chrome Relay lets coding agents like Claude Code, CodeX, use your everyday Chrome signed in as you. A Chrome extension and a small local relay connect the agent to your browser. Each agent works in its own background

06:42 tabs tucked into a collapsed group, so your window never jumps. Agents can only touch the tabs they opened, and every page and click goes into a local audit log. What would you prioritize if you were governing Israel in May 1948? Statecraft Israel puts you in the Prime Minister’s chair balancing a tight budget, cabinet appointments, and security decisions as historical events unfold. The game sites sources for its facts and lets you inspect why events

07:13 happened. It’s an early Unity prototype covering 1948 through 1951 with an explicitly Israeli historical framing. F top is a lightweight system monitor for Apple Silicon Macs written in Swift. It puts everything in one floating glass panel that you can resize to any shape. You get one column per core with performance and efficiency core split, plus memory per GPU, network speed, power draw in watts, and the busiest apps by icon.

07:43 It skips history graphs and only shows what’s happening right now. Vegemil returns type decisions from a small language model without generating any text built on frozen Quen 3.5 models at 0.8b and 4b. You give it a state like an email and a question with fixed answers. The model reads everything once and a small physics engine drops a particle into a decision space where each answer is a well. Wherever the particle settles becomes the answer with a calibrated confidence and an option to

08:15 abstain. Motion maxing is an agent skill for Claude code that makes AI generated motion videos look like a motion designer made them. It builds each film in plain HTML with GSAP and 3.js then renders it locally. The skill works through 10 steps starting with capturing the brand from a URL and ending with sound. Along the way scripted checks catch dead frames and end cards that run too long. Open Apple remote makes the first generation Siri remote the one with the

08:46 touch surface from the 2015 and 2017 Apple TVs work on Linux. Linux pairs with the remote but it stays silent until it’s unlocked. This tool unlocks it and decodes the touch and button reports in plain Python with no dependencies. You get swipes clicks and tilts as JSON events or map to key presses. Better Whisper is a free local voice dictation app for Mac OS that runs Whisper Nvidia Parakeet or Apple’s own speech recognition right on your Mac.

09:18 Hold option and space speak let go and the text lands in whatever app you are using. It learns from your corrections so a word it got wrong gets spelled right next time. It also handles meetings writing up summaries and action items with a local model. PS2 web recomp translates PS2 game code into C++. Then compiles it to WebAssembly with WebGPU graphics. The maintainers report Gran Turismo 4 running at 50 frames per second in Chrome on integrated graphics at twice

09:50 the original resolution. Browser memory cards keep your saves. The catch, only two games have been brought up so far. You supply your own disk image and the generated builds stay on your machine. Solid glass is an open-source design system for AI apps built as one style sheet on top of shad/ui. The look is a thick smoky glass that stays readable because the face is plain gray and doesn’t pick up color from what’s behind it. The glass effect lives only at the edges in a thin rim of light

10:21 and a soft shadow. A create page lets you tune thickness, tint, and blur, then copy the result as a few lines of CSS. RustGIS is an open-source desktop GIS written entirely in Rust with a ribbon interface built on Egui and rendered on the GPU. It loads shapefiles, GeoJSON, and cloud-optimized GeoTIFFs. It handles symbology, labeling, and editing, and covers analysis like buffers, clips, and dissolves. The same codebase runs on Windows, macOS, Linux, and in the

10:51 browser through WebAssembly. USD Brep is Nvidia’s open-source solid modeling library for OpenUSD with C++ and Python interfaces. It’s a kernel for NURBS-based boundary representations, the precise surfaces CAD tools use to define solid parts. It comes with examples for each API layer and a small GUI you can run from Python. A healing tool repairs broken B-rep data in USD files and keeps their layers, references, and materials intact. Agent Standup turns your Claude code and

11:22 Codex sessions into an animated team call using the logs already on your machine. Agents speak, share actual command output and diffs, and show who’s waiting on whom. The useful bit is spotting stalled work without digging through transcripts. It runs locally, and the default visualization adds no model calls. RSI anything is a framework for recursive self-improvement built on Gen versus Jeppa anything world models. Each round, the system proposes actions and has a world model predict what they’ll

11:53 do. Then it picks the best ones, tests them against real feedback, and keeps whatever improved. The same loop works for code repair, browser tasks, lab planning, and chemical reaction tuning. GBOSVM runs Google Book OS, the Android-based system made for the Dell Google Book, in a GPU-accelerated virtual machine on Apple Silicon Macs. The install script downloads Google’s own recovery image, checks it against a pinned hash, and swaps in virtual hardware parts from Google’s Cuttlefish

12:24 project. It all boots under QEMU with Vulcan translated to Metal, and comes packaged as a normal Mac app. Claude Show Your Work is a Claude code plugin that shows images and plays videos right in your terminal using the Kitty graphics protocol. Claude can pull up a screenshot, a chart, or a Playwright recording without being asked. For QA, it puts before and after runs side by side and lines up each step, even when one version loads slower. Below the clip, you get a timestamped

12:55 list of what changed and a short pass or fail summary. W1700K SDR turns a Gemtek U1700K Wi-Fi 7 router into a wideband software-defined radio receiver. It replaces the radio’s firmware with the project’s own code, which was decoded register by register. The radio captures raw samples at up to 320 million per second across the 2.4, 5, and 6 GHz bands. Those samples stream over 10 gigabit Ethernet to a Linux

13:26 machine, which shows a live spectrum and waterfall in the browser. The All Words skill builds a polished website from a single line, and it runs in Claude code codex or any agent that reads skill.md files. Ask for a portfolio with your name, and the agent pitches three concepts, scores them, and picks one. Then it writes a design system, builds the site with GSAP and WebGL motion, and checks it in a real browser on desktop and mobile. Effortless is a Claude code mod that

13:57 picks the reasoning effort for every prompt, so you don’t have to touch the effort control. A fast judge model reads each prompt in about a second, gives quick questions low effort, and hard tasks high effort, and tells you why. A bar above the prompt shows how full your context is, and how long until the prompt cache goes cold. Iris 3B is an open text-to-image model with 3 billion parameters that draws every pixel itself with no VAE in between. It’s a diffusion transformer

14:28 that reads prompts through a frozen Qwen 3 VL text encoder. A small pixel transformer at the end decodes each patch straight back into pixels. The repo includes the weights, the full training code, and a Gradio demo, all under Apache 2.0. Sim Run runs iPhone apps built for the iOS simulator directly on a Mac without booting a simulated iPhone. Every app gets its own regular Mac window that you can resize and minimize. The app still runs on the iPhone’s own

14:59 UI Kit and Swift UI, while your trackpad scroll, pinch, and rotate become touch input. A command-line tool launches apps, takes screenshots, and streams their logs to the terminal.
