CLUSTER AGENT-DESKTOP-GITHUB · 15 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2026-08-30
AI agent skill installers
This cluster consists of desktop applications that search for AI agent skill definitions (including MCP servers) in GitHub repositories and install or manage them in local agent configurations. The cluster's dated history before the index start is too thin to read a shape from, with only two dated entries. Traction leaders are grux (25 stars), Skillbox (13 stars), and StandBye (6 stars).
Entry timeline
ENTRY TIMELINE
Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.
