THU-MAIC/OpenMAIC holds No. 1 on the GitHub trending board for September 1, 2026, after Tsinghua's MAIC group shipped OpenMAIC v1.0.0 on August 27 as a multi-agent interactive classroom. A README snapshot listed about 21,120 stars; Discovergit on September 1 reported about 27.7k stars and 4.8k forks, MIT licensed TypeScript, with a same-day plus 3k star print that is not the Trends MCP rank. Five names are new versus August 31, while tt-a1i/archify climbs from 4 to 2.
Top trending repos on GitHub: September 1
THU-MAIC/OpenMAIC: Tsinghua MAIC's open multi-agent interactive classroom. Rank 1 holds. v1.0.0 landed August 27. Star counts disagree by source (README about 21,120; Discovergit about 27.7k stars and 4.8k forks; Trendshift about 27.6k), so this post treats Trends MCP as rank 1, not as a star total.
tt-a1i/archify: An agent skill that compiles typed diagram JSON into HTML and SVG. Rank 2, up from 4 (plus 2). A prior Trends MCP run recorded about 36,196 stars when the repo sat at 4; today's GitHub page listed about 38,959.
K-Dense-AI/scientific-agent-skills: Agent skills for science workflows. Rank 3 after rank 2 yesterday. No separate September 1 paper drop was identified; the repo remains a skills library for biology, chemistry, and related research agents.
k1tbyte/Wand-Enhancer: A community UX and local config extension for the Wand (WeMod) client. New at 4. No widely reported consumer trigger was identified for September 1, 2026 beyond the new chart seat.
majd/ipatool: A command-line tool for searching and downloading App Store IPA packages on accounts that already own those apps. Rank 5, up from 8.
jingyaogong/minimind: Jingyao Gong's tiny LLM series. New at 6. Related MiniMind-O shipped May 5, 2026 as a 0.1B omni model (about 115M, Apache-2.0).
Osmantic/ODS: A local AI stack installer that wires Ollama and Open WebUI (plus adjacent services) instead of assembling them by hand. New at 7.
checkstyle/checkstyle: The Java linter fixture. Rank 8, up from 10. It is the board's recurring static-analysis title, not a new release story.
zhaoxuya520/reverse-skill: A reverse-engineering skill pack for coding agents. New at 9. No widely reported trigger identified for September 1, 2026.
affaan-m/ECC: An agent skills, memory, and performance system. New at 10. No widely reported trigger identified for September 1, 2026.

What changed on GitHub since yesterday
OpenMAIC held 1. Archify rose 4 to 2. Scientific-agent-skills slipped 2 to 3. Ipatool rose 8 to 5. Checkstyle rose 10 to 8.
New: Wand-Enhancer (4), minimind (6), ODS (7), reverse-skill (9), ECC (10). Drop-offs versus August 31: vphone-cli, heretic, crawl4ai, last30days-skill, awesome-mcp-servers. No title jumped 5 or more ranks; the turnover is five exits and five entries.
What today's GitHub trends reveal
September 1 is an agent-tooling day with a classroom project still on top. OpenMAIC at 1 after the August 27 v1.0.0 cut is a hold, not a debut. Around it, the board rotated from crawlers, MCP lists, and phone CLIs toward local LLM stacks (minimind, ODS), science skills, and coding-agent skill packs (reverse-skill, ECC).
Archify's climb to 2 keeps a diagram skill near the classroom leader. Checkstyle at 8 is the exception that proves the pattern: a long-running Java linter still occupies a seat while five August 31 names leave. Star totals from Discovergit and GitHub pages are context only. The Trends MCP GitHub type is a rank feed.
