  • NanmiCoder/MediaCrawler: A crawler for video and social content platforms including Xiaohongshu, Douyin, Bilibili, and Weibo. (+794)
  • xbtlin/ai-berkshire: A value investing research framework built on Claude Code with multi-agent adversarial analysis using four master methodologies. (+174)
  • paperswithbacktest/awesome-systematic-trading: A curated list of libraries, strategies, books, and resources for systematic trading. (+309)
  • arc53/DocsGPT: A private AI platform for agents, assistants, and enterprise document search with a built-in agent builder. (+37)

Today's trending list sends a clear signal: builders are converging hard on agent infrastructure, from runtime sandboxes and governance toolkits to skill management layers and local inference engines. The secondary wave of offline-first and self-hosted tools suggests that data sovereignty is becoming a first-class design constraint, not an afterthought.
