trending-skills
Fetches fresh (last 7 days) trending skills / agents / rules / MCP for Claude Code and Cursor via Tavily search plus the GitHub API, dedups against previously-sent items, and outputs fresh items as a structured two-block digest for the LLM to format.
When to Use
Use when you need a weekly roundup of what's trending in the Claude Code / Cursor
skill ecosystem: new skills, agents, rule files (.cursorrules / AGENTS.md),
or MCP servers.
How to Run
python scripts/fetch_trending.py [--config config.yaml] [--dry-run] [--no-crawl]
--dry-run prints what a real run would emit but marks nothing as seen, so you
can look at the output without consuming the items.
The script prints two blocks to stdout:
СТАТЬИ (заголовок | источник | url): <-- fresh items
СТАТЬИ-СОДЕРЖАНИЕ (заголовок === текст): <-- short crawled content per item
The agent (LLM) reads these blocks and formats the final human-readable post. Dedup is built in: a repeat run returns only genuinely new items, safe to call weekly.
Config
Everything is configurable via config.yaml (or the defaults at the top of the
script). Sample:
queries:
- {"q": "claude code skills trending", "domain": "github.com"}
- {"q": "cursor rules file trending github", "domain": "github.com"}
- {"q": "claude code MCP server new", "domain": null}

What the editor must do with this output
Search brings back more than it should: catalogue pages, marketing, articles that only mention the ecosystem in passing. The collector cannot tell those from a real find, so filtering them out is your job.
- Judge by meaning, not by the words in the title.
- Drop anything that is not a skill, rule file, MCP server, agent or workflow for Claude Code or Cursor. Say nothing about what you removed.
- A short roundup beats a roundup with a stray item in it. Fewer finds than you were aiming for is a normal outcome.
