Downloads fell, incidents eased
For the week ending Oct 19, 2026, the 421 tracked agents recorded 202.3M downloads, a change of -19% versus the previous week. Our data does not explain the decline. Status page incidents dropped from 44 to 26, and according to the official status pages, incidents were open for 46 hours in total this week.
Fastest growers
Hermes Agent led with +322% growth, reaching 214.9K downloads. AgentScope grew +49% to 40.8K. Browser Harness grew +41% and, at 2.3M downloads, has by far the largest base of the three, so its growth carries more volume than the other two combined. Hermes Agent is still a small base in absolute terms, which helps explain the size of the percentage.
Fastest decliners
MCP for Blender (formerly BlenderMCP) fell -74% to 139.6K downloads, the steepest drop in our list. Botpress and Greptile each fell -65%, to 7.4K and 11.5K. The facts we have do not say why these three dropped.
What it means for you
- If you are evaluating agents in the browser-automation space, Browser Harness combines +41% growth with a 2.3M download base, the largest base among this week's fastest growers.
- Hermes Agent and AgentScope are growing quickly from small bases; test them on a side project before committing production work.
- Teams relying on MCP for Blender, Botpress or Greptile should check each project's repository and release notes for the reason behind the -74% and -65% drops.
- Status page incidents fell (26 against 44), but check the official status page of each agent you depend on rather than relying on the aggregate.
