# Trove

> Eashan's living asset library: the best UI kits, motion, effects, shaders, gradients, type, icons, templates, drop-in features, and AI and voice tools. Every entry with a repo was checked on GitHub. It refreshes every week: new things arrive, dead things retire, better things replace older ones.

Built 2026-09-24. 1041 live entries, 147 marked core (reach for these first), 2 retired.

## How to use it as an agent

1. Fetch https://trove.agentec.cloud/index.tsv. One line per entry, tab separated: id, shelf, tier, stars, name, what, get. Grep it. It is small.
2. Pick the entry with tier `core` first, then `good`, then `watch`. Never use `retired`: follow its replacement.
3. The `get` column is the one line that installs it (an npm, pnpm or npx line, a shadcn add, a clone, or a URL).
4. For every field (use, demo, license, last push, replaced_by) fetch https://trove.agentec.cloud/trove.json. Shape: { shelves, weeks, entries[] }.
5. A human link to one entry is https://trove.agentec.cloud/item/<id>. A search is https://trove.agentec.cloud/search?q=<words>. A shelf is https://trove.agentec.cloud/shelf/<key>.

## Entry fields

id, name, repo (owner/name), url, shelf, kind, tags, stack, what, use, get, demo, img, stars, pushed (last push, YYYY-MM-DD), license, archived, tier (core, good, watch, retired), cool (1 to 5), replaced_by, added, src.

## Looks

`looks` in trove.json are curated combinations for a feel ("dark neon product", "calm editorial"): { id, name, feel, register (a = his own tools, dark; b = client work, light), ids, how }. Start from a look when the job is "make it feel like X". A human link is https://trove.agentec.cloud/look/<id>.

## Weekly change log

`weeks` in trove.json lists each week newest first: { week, added: [ids], retired: [{ id, replaced_by, why }], rising: [ids], notes }.
The page https://trove.agentec.cloud/week shows the latest one.
