This is a very opinionated list from my daily usage. I will try to keep 🔥 entries below 10 (or 20, if I can't 😉).
See AGENTS.md for contribution guidelines when adding entries.
Visit the web page version here. It is generated directly from the catalog tables in this README plus deployment-time GitHub activity metrics.

Catalog entries live directly in README tables with four columns: Status, Tool, Tags, Description. Tool names are Markdown links to GitHub repositories, and any ## section with that exact table header is treated as a category.
GitHub metrics are fetched at build time and are never committed back into README. Tags should highlight distinguishing traits, such as microvm, sandbox, token-saving, browser, or subagents.
To add or update entries with an agent, use .agents/skills/add-tool/SKILL.md; Claude-compatible setups can use .claude/skills/add-tool.
