Tools for building with AI agents

The libraries, frameworks and dev tools that real projects built with AI coding agents actually use: 1101 tools from the dependency files of 12,697 public GitHub repos set up for Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Codex and others. For each tool: how many of those projects use it, what it is used together with, downloads and stars. Updated Oct 10, 2026.

How we count: a project "uses" a tool when it is listed in the repo's package.json, requirements.txt or pyproject.toml. Repos come from our weekly scan of public GitHub projects that configure AI coding agents (real-world stacks). Forks are excluded. Hosted services with pricing are in APIs.
