agency-agents: the 111k-Star Agent Workforce We Missed
agency-agents is surging on GitHub Trending today at over 1,400 stars a day, and at 111,000 total stars it's one of those repos we should have covered long ago — same story as superpowers last week. What it is: 232 specialized agent personalities organized into 16 professional divisions — engineering, design, marketing, sales, product, security — each defined with personality traits, core workflows, concrete deliverables and success metrics. MIT licensed, and it plugs into Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, Cursor, Aider, Windsurf and half a dozen other tools.
The pitch is deeper than a prompt collection: instead of "you are a helpful marketer," each agent is a character with a process — how it scopes work, what it produces, how it measures success. You assemble a team for a project the way an agency staffs one. Whether 232 personas are 232 genuinely different capabilities or one model wearing 232 hats is a fair question, but at this adoption level the repo is a de facto standard for how people structure multi-role agent work.
To be precise about what's new: there is no release event here — no version tags, just continuous commits on main. What's new is the attention, another wave of people deciding their coding agent should also be their marketing department. Together with superpowers (220k stars, methodology) and addyosmani/agent-skills (54k, engineering skills), the picture is consistent: the scarce thing isn't model access, it's packaged judgment about how to work. That's what people keep starring by the hundred thousand.
