What today's GitHub trends reveal
The October 8 GitHub ten is an agent-tooling board. Skills and memory packs occupy ranks 2, 4, 6, and 8. Terminals and computer-use sit at 9 and 10. raddebugger at 7 is the non-agent native tool. Star counts range from 7953 (raddebugger) to 280209 (mattpocock/skills). None of the September 28 names survived a 10-day gap, so this file is a full rotation, not a 5-rank mover list.
