tiennm99andGitHub e4753ba33c chore: annotate archived repos, publish inclusion criteria (#10)
- notes for gpt-engineer, void, Roo-Code (archived upstream) — shown
  as badges + italics on the dashboard; kept for historical value
- README Contributing now states inclusion criteria: must BE a coding
  agent (not tooling for agents), ~10k+ stars, open source + maintained
- resolves ambiguity for community PRs proposing sub-bar repos

# Awesome Coding Agents

> Curated ranking of AI agent coding tools, sorted by GitHub stars.
> Updated daily by GitHub Actions.

📊 **[Interactive dashboard with star-history charts →](https://tiennm99.github.io/awesome-coding-agents/)**

**Last updated:** {{.UpdatedAt}} · **Tracked:** {{.Total}} repos
{{- if .TopMover.HasMover }}
**Top 7-day mover:** [{{ .TopMover.NameWithOwner }}]({{ .TopMover.URL }}) ({{ formatDelta .TopMover.Delta true }} stars)
{{- end }}

| # | Repo | Stars | Δ7d | Language | Last push | Description |
|---|------|------:|----:|----------|-----------|-------------|
{{- range .Rows }}
| {{ .Rank }} | [{{ .NameWithOwner }}]({{ .URL }}) | {{ formatStars .Stars }} | {{ formatDelta .Delta7d .HasDelta }} | {{ .Language }} | {{ .PushedAt }} | {{ .Description }} |
{{- end }}

## How it works

1. `data/agents.yml` is the curated source list.
2. A daily GitHub Actions workflow (`.github/workflows/update.yml`) runs the Go updater.
3. The updater fetches live repo metadata via the GitHub GraphQL API in one batched query.
4. Star counts are appended to `data/history.jsonl` for 7-day delta computation.
5. This `README.md` is regenerated from `templates/readme.tmpl` and committed back to the repo.
6. `site/data.json` is regenerated and the [dashboard](https://tiennm99.github.io/awesome-coding-agents/) (`site/index.html`) is redeployed to GitHub Pages.

**Δ7d:** Change in stars over the past 7 days; `—` means fewer than 7 days of history.

## Contributing

**Inclusion criteria** — a repo belongs on this list when it is:

1. **An AI coding agent or assistant itself** — a tool that autonomously writes, edits, or reviews code. Frameworks, wrappers, observability layers, and workspaces *for* agents are out of scope.
2. **Notable**: roughly **10,000+ GitHub stars** (the current list floor).
3. **Open source and actively maintained** (archived repos are kept only for historical significance, marked as such).

Add an agent to [`data/agents.yml`](data/agents.yml):

```yaml
agents:
  - owner: github-username-or-org
    repo: repository-name
    category: cli   # cli | ide | extension | library | research | web
```

Open a PR. The next daily run picks it up automatically.

PRs are validated automatically by CI (`go run . -check`): owner/repo must be non-empty and look like a real GitHub slug, category must be one of the values above, and duplicates (case-insensitive) are rejected.
