rehan-remade/universal-modder reached 4,447 stars, an increase of 713 stars over the prior 24 hours[^1]. The Python repository provides tools to use Claude Code for modding PC games.

storytold/photocraft grew to 3,863 stars, up 2,052 from the count recorded one day earlier[^2]. This project is a clean-room open source reimplementation of Adobe Photoshop written in pure Rust.
