I run a small AI trends site, and three weeks ago I started doing something simple: every day, snapshot the star count of every repo that crosses my GitHub trending scan for AI. No judgment, no curation, just append-only rows in a database. 611 repos and 2,671 data points later (June 19 to July 10), the picture of what's actually growing looks pretty different from what my feeds told me was hot. Here's what the data says. Before publishing this I re-checked every number below against GitHub's live API. Star counts drift by the hour, so treat them as of July 10. The top 10 risers, by raw stars gained Repo Gained Window From → To calesthio/OpenMontage +30,253 21 days 5,899 → 36,152 DeusData/codebase-memory-mcp +20,483 19 days 7,516 → 27,999 mattpocock/skills +19,053 15 days 137,485 → 156,538 obra/superpowers +16,887 20 days 232,908 → 249,795 NousResearch/hermes-agent +14,896 21 days 197,297 → 212,193 Panniantong/Agent-Reach +14,334 14 days 34,780 → 49,114 usestrix/strix +13,243 12 days 26,363 → 39,606 addyosmani/agent-skills +12,685 21 days 63,156 → 75,841 asgeirtj/system_prompts_leaks +11,720 21 days 43,415 → 55,135 msitarzewski/agency-agents +11,055 10 days 118,241 → 129,296 Windows differ because I only hold snapshots for the days a repo appeared in my scan; each row states its own real window. Three things in this data genuinely surprised me. 1. "Skills" are eating agent frameworks Four of the top ten are not agent frameworks. They are collections of packaged expertise that plug into an existing agent: obra/superpowers (still compounding at roughly 840 stars a day on a 250k base), mattpocock/skills, addyosmani/agent-skills, msitarzewski/agency-agents. A year ago this table would have been full of new frameworks. Now the framework layer looks settled and the growth is in what you load INTO the agent. The moat moved from orchestration code to encoded judgment. 2. The sharpest climbs are applications, not infrastructure The steepest sustained climb from a newcomer in

Writing changelogs is one of those developer tasks that sounds simple until you are staring at a messy commit history. Some commits matter to users. Some are internal cleanup. Some are merge commits. Some are meaningful only if you already know the codebase. I built a small Python example that turns commit messages or git diffs into structured changelog JSON using Telnyx AI Inference. Code: https://github.com/team-telnyx/telnyx-code-examples/tree/main/changelog-generator-python What it does The Flask app exposes: POST /generate POST /generate/from-diff GET /changelogs GET /changelogs/<id> GET /health POST /generate accepts a list of commit messages: { "version" : "v1.4.0" , "repo_name" : "billing-service" , "commits" : [ "feat: add Stripe webhook retry with exponential backoff" , "fix: correct tax calculation for EU VAT exemption" , "docs: update API reference for invoice endpoint" ] } The app asks Telnyx AI Inference to return grouped changelog JSON with sections like: Features Bug Fixes Improvements Breaking Changes Documentation Other There is also a POST /generate/from-diff endpoint if you want to summarize a git diff instead of commit messages. Why structured output matters For a changelog tool, plain text is useful, but structured output is more flexible. If the response comes back as JSON, you can: render it in a docs site save it in a release database post it into a PR comment send it to Slack open a release-note review workflow let a human approve it before publishing The example stores generated changelogs in memory and gives each one an ID, so you can list recent changelogs or retrieve a specific one. Run it Clone the examples repo: git clone https://github.com/team-telnyx/telnyx-code-examples.git cd telnyx-code-examples/changelog-generator-python Create your .env file: cp .env.example .env Add your Telnyx API key: TELNYX_API_KEY=your_telnyx_api_key AI_MODEL=moonshotai/Kimi-K2.6 HOST=127.0.0.1 Install and run: pip install -r requirements.txt python app.py

Most apps that grew an "AI" feature in the last two years talk to one of a handful of cloud APIs, and almost all of them speak the same dialect: the OpenAI Chat Completions format. That one detail is the reason you can pull the cloud out and run the whole thing locally on a Mac without the app ever noticing. Here is the trick, why it works, and the gotchas that bite. The one interface everything agrees on OpenAI's /v1/chat/completions endpoint became the de facto standard. So when an app lets you "use your own key" or "set a custom base URL," it is almost always going to POST to {base_url}/chat/completions with a JSON body of messages and read back the same shape. It does not care what is on the other end, only that the response matches. Local runners leaned into this. Both popular Mac ones expose exactly that endpoint: Ollama serves an OpenAI-compatible API at http://localhost:11434/v1 (its native API lives on /api , but the /v1 path speaks the OpenAI dialect). LM Studio has a built-in server you switch on from the Developer tab, serving on http://localhost:1234/v1 . So "make this app local" usually reduces to: point its base URL at one of those, put any non-empty string where it wants an API key, and pick a model you have pulled. The 60-second version Ollama: brew install ollama # or the .dmg from ollama.com ollama serve & # server on :11434 ollama pull llama3.1:8b # pull a model once Confirm it speaks OpenAI: curl http://localhost:11434/v1/chat/completions \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{ "model": "llama3.1:8b", "messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "say hi in 3 words"}] }' If that returns a choices[0].message.content , any OpenAI-compatible client can use it. In the app, set: Base URL: http://localhost:11434/v1 API key: ollama (or literally anything; it is ignored) Model: llama3.1:8b LM Studio is the same idea with a GUI: load a model, toggle the server on, and use base URL http://localhost:1234/v1 . Pointing real tools at it The pattern shows up

OpenAI's new family of models will continue to power Microsoft's suite of workplace and productivity apps.

Microsoft may once again be struggling to keep up with its own climate goals, according to its 2026 sustainability report. As reported by GeekWire, the report states that Microsoft's carbon emissions increased 25 percent in 2025, totalling 34 million metric tons "without select interventions." Microsoft says this was "driven primarily by the expansion of our […]

OpenAI's No. 2 executive, Fidji Simo, is stepping down from her full-time role after her medical leave proved longer than expected — a leadership vacuum that comes at a tricky time as the company eyes a possible IPO and races to catch Anthropic in the enterprise market.

OpenAI's Fidji Simo is departing her full-time role as the company's AGI chief and is transitioning to being a "part-time advisor," she said on X. The news follows Simo's original announcement in April that she would take a few weeks of medical leave due to a neuroimmune condition, shortly after she had taken on the […]

The move comes after Simo took significant medical leave. She will stay on as a part-time adviser.

Netflix is thinking about adding always-on channels that would stream specific shows and movies, according to The Wall Street Journal. The move sounds like a Netflix version of always-on services like Pluto TV and Tubi, except the big hook for those is that they're free - because of the ads you have to watch. Netflix […]

That's a choice.

OpenAI's latest family of models promises improvements across a range of areas, including cybersecurity.

If you've worked with OpenAPI for any length of time, chances are you've used Redocly CLI. It's one...

Lyzr, a startup that builds AI agents for enterprises, used its own AI agent to raise a $100 million round — proof, evidently, that the product actually works.

OpenAI is sunsetting its AI-powered browser after less than a year. But it's moving some agentic browsing features to its desktop app and a Chrome extension.

Should Anthropic trust Elon Musk to host its models? With about $40 billion in revenue at stake, Musk insists that the company can.

The AI ROI debate has returned and the numbers are even bigger, as are, perhaps, the consequences.

Sandboxing Untrusted Code: Meet CubeSandbox As AI agents become capable of writing, compiling, and running code dynamically, a major security issue has surfaced: how to run this code safely . If a coding agent runs a malicious script or makes an error, it could access files on the host computer or break the entire server. Standard software containers are not always secure enough to prevent escape. CubeSandbox is an open-source, high-performance sandbox service designed specifically to solve this problem. Developed by Tencent Cloud and written in Rust, it provides isolated, secure, and ultra-fast environments for running code generated by AI. What is CubeSandbox? CubeSandbox is a lightweight virtualization system. It spins up a tiny, isolated "virtual machine" for each AI agent task. This ensures that the code runs inside its own virtual bubble, completely separated from the main server. Key Features 1. Hardware-Level Isolation Unlike standard Docker containers that share the same kernel, CubeSandbox uses KVM (Kernel-based Virtual Machine) and RustVMM to give each sandbox its own dedicated Guest OS kernel. This prevents untrusted code from breaking out of the container and accessing your primary server. 2. Under 60ms Cold Starts Traditional virtual machines take seconds to boot. CubeSandbox starts in under 60 milliseconds . This speed is crucial for real-time AI agents that need to execute code instantly. 3. High Density (Low Memory) Each sandbox instance has a memory overhead of less than 5MB . This allows developers to run thousands of concurrent, fully isolated sandboxes on a single physical machine without running out of RAM. 4. Drop-in E2B Replacement For developers currently using E2B (the popular cloud sandboxing SDK), CubeSandbox is fully API-compatible. You can migrate your setup to local hosting by simply changing an environment variable, saving you massive cloud subscription fees. How to Get Started Developers can deploy CubeSandbox locally or in a cluster

From Optimization to Protection: Adding a Security and Governance Agent to Your Snowflake Multi-Agent Team (Part 3) In Part 1 , we built an Admin Agent for usage and cost visibility. In Part 2 , we added a Cost Optimizer Agent and an Orchestrator that routes questions to specialists. Now we close the loop with the third specialist: a Security and Governance Agent . This turns your assistant from "what happened" and "what to optimize" into a full team that also answers "what is risky right now". By the end of this post, you will have: A Security and Governance Agent with focused security tools Security semantic views mapped to natural language Orchestrator routing across Admin, Cost Optimizer, and Security agents A practical triage workflow for failed logins, privilege risk, and unauthorized access Why Add a Security Specialist? The first two agents are strong for operations and spend, but security requires a different lens: Access control and role hygiene Failed login patterns and anomaly detection Unauthorized access attempts Inactive users with active privileges Compliance-friendly audit summaries Could one large agent do everything? Sometimes. But specialized agents are easier to maintain, safer to evolve, and easier to test. Final Team Architecture User Question (natural language) | Orchestrator Agent / | \ Admin Cost Security Agent Optimizer Governance Agent \ | / Unified Response Role of each specialist Admin Agent: usage, credits, storage, operational metrics Cost Optimizer Agent: idle compute, rightsizing, optimization opportunities Security and Governance Agent: roles, privileges, failed logins, unauthorized access, audits The Security Pattern (Same Foundation as Parts 1 and 2) Step 1: Base Views Create security-focused views over SNOWFLAKE.ACCOUNT_USAGE , including: Role hierarchy and privilege grants Failed login attempts and anomaly severity Excessive or unused privileged access Unauthorized access attempts User and role audit summaries Network policy ac
