Andrew Warner and Matt Van Horn break down this week's top GitHub repos for AI agents, coding workflows, browser automation, and developer productivity.

Andrew Warner is joined by Matt Van Horn to review the most interesting AI and developer tools trending on GitHub. They discuss **Buzz**, **Paperclip**, **Orca**, **Hermes Agent**, **ElgoLite**, Alibaba's **Open Code Review**, productivity skills for Claude and Codex, browser automation, AI-powered code reviews, and tools that help developers build faster with coding agents. They also explore open-source collaboration, contributing to GitHub projects with AI, turning books into reusable skills, and why terminal-first AI workflows are becoming the preferred way to build software.
