GitHub Trending Today #57: unslop, tv-detox, TwinDesk, florilegium, global-law, switch, Venture Transcript

00:00 Welcome back to GitHub awesome. This is GitHub trending today number 57. 35 trending open source projects on GitHub right now. Let's get into it. Unslop is a clawed skill from designer Demir Sokalovski that turns a vibecoded AI looking interface into one with real character. It starts by listing every sign of slop and where it lives. Purple gradients, glows, emoji labels, shouty copy, and uneven spacing.

00:26 Then it proposes a design direction from your product before touching anything so you can steer it. TV Detox brings an old slow Android TV back to life with clawed code or codecs doing the cleanup over Wi-Fi. You paste in its prompt and the agent goes through the TV's apps one by one asking before it switches anything off. Nothing gets deleted and it keeps a list so every change can be undone.

00:50 Then it installs a tiny home screen with your apps, your HDMI inputs, and a clock using about 30 megabytes of RAM. Twin makes two computers on the same network work like one big desk on Mac, Windows, and Linux. Move your mouse off the edge of one screen and it keeps going onto the other keyboard and all. You can also use the second machine as an extra monitor, mirror a screen, or run its apps in their own windows on the computer in front of you.

01:23 Copy something on one and paste it on the other or just drag files across. Floralium is a Lua latex package that grows decorative delfted blue flowers in the margins of your documents drawn entirely in Lua. Every stem, leaf, and petal is computed as a curve and written straight into the PDF with no images at all. You can place the flowers by hand or let them grow to fill the free space around your text.

01:47 It also draws ornate drop cap letters, adds blooms beside section headings, and slips in tiny visitors like bees, butterflies, and a snail. Global law puts the law of many countries into a single git history where each commit is a law taking effect on its real date. Every country lives in its own repository pinned in as a subm module. Because history is ordered by date, you can read the law exactly as it stood on any day.

02:16 You can diff it, search it across countries, and see who wrote each change down to the word. Token economizer is a research plugin from Microsoft and UC Berkeley that cuts the cost of coding agents like Claude Code, Codeex, and Copilot CLI without changing the agent at all. It learns facts about your repo from repeated mistakes and hands them to the agent at the start of each session.

02:39 It switches off tools the agent never uses, and you can undo that anytime. Switch is a TypeScript framework for building harnesses where a decision model works through a task one choice at a time. Your code turns the current state into typed questions like yes or no, pick one from a list or give a score. The model answers each with probabilities and never writes free text.

03:05 Then your code moves to the next state and the loop runs until there's nothing left to ask. Venture is an open-source emulator that runs the MetaQuest games you own on a Windows or Linux PC through a PC VR headset. Each game runs as a normal process on your computer, renders on your own GPU, and connects to the headset through Open XR. You sign in with the Meta account that owns your games and install them straight from your library.

03:33 It can even add them to Steam and Steam VR. Reanimate is a clawed code skill that reverse engineers an animation you like and rebuilds it in your own code. Give it a screen recording, an MP4, a GIF, or a Lahi file. It records the original and writes a spec of the timing and easing. Then it builds the animation in CSS, framer motion, gap, or 3JS and records its copy to compare against the original.

04:00 It repeats that loop until the motion matches. ES32 AirPlay 2 surround turns a handful of cheap ESP32S3 boards into a wireless 5.1 or 7.1 surround system for Apple TV. Each board shows up as an AirPlay 2 speaker that says it can handle surround audio. So Apple TV sends the full multi-channel stream to every one of them. Then each board decodes only its own channel whether that's the center, the subwoofer or a rear speaker picked in a small web page.

04:33 Idol turns a single image into a 3D object made of Gaussian splats. Give it one photo and it removes the background, frames the object, and generates up to a million Gaussians, including the sides your photo never showed. Underneath, a 370 million parameter diffusion transformer does the work over 50 steps. The result is a standard ply file you can drop into any splat viewer.

04:56 Pixel FX gives you a whole library of animated pixel art effects for your game. There's fire, explosions, magic spells, weather, and even little coin pickups. You can preview them in the browser, change their colors, and export sprite sheets for engines like God or Unity. There's also a clawed code skill that helps you create new effects and refine them until they look right.

05:23 Cleanly helps you figure out what's eating up space on your Windows PC or Mac. It finds old downloads, browser caches, large files, and duplicates, then shows your folders on a visual space map. Your files go to the trash, while caches and temporary files are deleted permanently. It can also show which apps launch at startup and help you switch them off.

05:45 Weft is a voxil sandbox written in Rust on Vulcan, and the game itself is just a mod built on its public SDK. Terrain is generated on the GPU with caves, dimensions, and biomes that blend into each other, and the world gets colored RGB lighting. There's survival and creative modes, crafting, mobs that find their way around, and machines that run on energy.

06:10 Remake is a clawed code tool that helps you rebuild a website from its URL. It captures the page, creates a copy, and compares the two across desktop, mobile, and scrolling animations. Then it gives you a board showing the text, images, and other content you can swap out. It's useful for rebuilding your own site or studying a design. Make sure you have permission to reuse someone else's assets and code.

06:34 Folio is an open- source PDF reader for Windows, Mac, and Linux. You can highlight passages, add notes, draw on pages, and sign documents without creating an account. It also turns web pages into PDFs and remembers where you stopped reading. Got a question about a long document? Connect chat GPT or claude and Folio can answer with clickable links back to the relevant pages.

07:01 Teardown is a claude code skill that turns any machine into a 3D simulator you can take apart built as one HTML page that works offline. Ask for an engine or a mechanism and Claude builds it in 3JS animating in the middle while panels around it show its live values. One button lights up the part doing the work right now. And when you step away, it plays a guided tour on its own.

07:25 Your own way lets Wii smart scales send your readings to a server you control instead of Wii's cloud. It patches the scale's own firmware downloaded from Wii and never shared. So the scale reports to your server. A small Python bridge flashes it and sets the scale up over Bluetooth. Your server can be a Cloudflare worker or a box at home with a dashboard for your devices and readings.

07:52 NISFformer compiles an entire NES processor into the weights of a stock Quen 35 model building on Divian Agrial's Quenputer. Nothing is trained. A compiler calculates the weights directly. The 6502 CPU, the console's working memory, and the cartridges program all live inside a normal model checkpoint. The model runs the game by predicting the CPU's execution log one token at a time.

08:18 Attacus is a voice assistant for your Mac built in Swift with a Python brain that passes requests to clawed code. Hold a hotkey, say what you need, and let go. It can lay out your windows, open apps and websites, find files by what's inside them, read and summarize your screen, or type a reply into the app you're using. Simple commands skip the AI and happen right away.

08:39 And every request shows its cost in the menu bar. Diarama is a toolkit for building tiny animated scenes that look like pixel art. Give a coding agent an idea and the playbook guides it through building the scene in 3JS from the little characters and props to their movements. It includes a fixed camera, a limited color palette, and tools that capture individual frames so you can spot characters that freeze or suddenly jump across the scene.

09:11 Lossless Memory gives a personal AI a way to look back at what you actually said. It keeps full conversation logs on your computer, timestamps each entry, and lets the assistant search by time and topic. Ask what you decided last Tuesday, and it can pull up the original lines instead of relying on a summary. It's designed for one person and one AI on a single machine.

09:36 Blockily is an experimental music making app built around patterns. You can edit the same beat in a step grid, piano roll, or tracker, then arrange your patterns into a full song. It supports plugins, samplers, MIDI controllers, and audio recording. There's even an AI composition assistant and an MCP connection, so an agent can work on a track alongside you.

09:59 Sheay is a free library of 280 pose references for AI image tools, released as CC0, so you can use the images any way you like. Every pose is a faceless mannequin drawn as clean line art from five camera angles. Upload one view as a pose reference and your image tool keeps the figure in the same pose across every generation. Each view was checked by hand with bad ones removed.

10:24 SCM is a Mac OS app that finds your photos, screenshots, videos, and audio when you describe what you're looking for. With AI models running on your Mac, it indexes your folders automatically and splits videos into scenes so a search can jump straight to the right moment. You can search by what's in a picture, by the text in a screenshot, or by what someone said in a recording.

10:49 Crowd bricks batches NVIDIA's Motion Bricks motion model, so it can animate hundreds of characters in a single model call. It compiles the model into a Tensor RT plan with room for a whole crowd, then gathers each character's next move and generates them all at once. Simple drivers tell each character to walk, stand, walk up to something, interact, or sit down.

11:12 Couch TV gives your Google TV or Android TV a custom home screen and turns your phone into the remote. The home screen shows themed scenes with a clock, the weather, your own row of apps, and a keep watching row that works across your streaming apps. A small Python bridge on an always on computer talks to the TV and serves a remote you open in your phone's browser.

11:37 GLY is an open- source React component library that brings the liquid glass look from Apple's iOS 26 to the web. Install it from npm, import a button or a switch, and the glassy styling comes builtin with nothing extra to set up. Components come in varants like a filled button and a doc site shows each one live. What stands out is getting that frosted, lightbending iOS look in a web app with one import.

12:03 Video director is a claude code skill that helps turn a simple brief into a short video built with code. It guides Claude through planning the shots, animating them, and rendering the result as an MP4. Then, its checking tools look for things like unwritable text, unexpected freezes, and quiet audio. You can also use it to review and improve an existing coded video.

12:24 Pinail gives you a place to review your coding agents work when it needs your input. Instead of reading everything in chat, you can inspect a code diff, comment on a plan, or mark up a generated image. Accept or reject each item, add a note, and the agent picks up where it left off. It works with agents like Claude Code and Codeex and keeps reviews on your computer.

12:51 N Punlock lets you write and run your own CC code on the NPU inside Intel Core ultra chips, the AI accelerator that normally only runs readymade model graphs. It targets the chip's programmable vector cores, which Intel's public software doesn't open up for custom code. Your C gets compiled into machine code for those cores, slotted into a valid graph, and run through Intel's own driver.

13:17 KD shows your Mac desktop right inside a terminal window over the SSH connection you already have. Run one command from another machine and the screen appears in your terminal drawn with the Kitty graphics protocol. Your mouse clicks and keystrokes go back the same way, so you can actually use the Mac. There's no VNC and no extra port to open. Subvox is a Mac OS experiment that asks a strange question.

13:43 Can AirPods Pro read the words you silently mouth? It taps Apple's head motion API, the same sensors that power spatial audio, and records the tiny movements your jaw makes as you shape each word. You train it on a small set of words, and it matches new movements against your recordings with a classic pattern matching technique. No language model involved.

14:06 PS2 Web Remp runs PlayStation 2 games right in a web browser with no emulator interpreting them on the fly. Ahead of time, it translates a game's machine code into C++, then compiles that into Web Assembly. The result links to a rebuild of the PS2's own system and hardware with the console's graphics chip recreated in WebGPU compute shaders. Brainotes turns your browser into a handwritten notebook.

14:30 Open a lecture PDF beside your notes, write directly on the pages, or clip part of a slide into your notebook. It supports pressure sensitive pens, highlighters, and an infinite whiteboard when you need more space. Your work saves automatically in the browser, works offline once opened, and can be exported as a PDF.
