Tracking the best open-source MCP servers and agent skills, and what publishers and social platforms are talking about. Every claim is traced to a primary source.
Five lanes: trending open-source AI projects, the developer tools and models builders are adopting, reusable agent skills you can drop into your own setup, MCP servers that connect agents to the tools you already use, and the AI news behind them.
The goal was to stay current. AI was moving faster than I could read, so I built a pipeline to ingest it — sources into a knowledge base, retrievable by the agents I was already building, then compiled into skills those agents could use. Trending Society is what that loop publishes.
The entire platform, from the content pipeline to distribution to the structured-data layer, is designed and built end to end in-house. The reporting is AI-assisted, the system around it is hand-built.
Everything is AI-assisted and human-edited: research aggregation, source verification, and citation validation before anything ships. Each page is structured so AI search platforms like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews can extract and cite it directly.
It goes out across web, newsletter, audio, and social, for the people actually building with this: engineers, founders, and technical teams.
