2.6 Steady Magnitude out of 10 — how fast interest is growing, not a quality score.

Star growth looks organic. Data as of October 12, 2026, 08:55 UTC.

The star-growth assessment does not verify whether the project is safe to run.

Stars per day

0510October 10, 2026October 12, 2026

Bars show stars per UTC day; the line is a moving average of available history. Gaps mean missing data, not zero growth. Today's bar is incomplete. Red marks spike days.

Why it’s trending

  • Star-counter measurements on 2026-10-12 (UTC), 07:55–08:49: 20 → 30 stars (+10). This is the change over that interval.
  • Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +17 stars, using observed gains and the previous day.
  • The repository is 2 days old and already has 30 stars. With less than two weeks of history, there's no usual pace to compare the spike against yet.
  • Hacker News: “Show HN: Atticus – Hold-to-talk voice assistant for macOS that runs on Claude -p” — 22 points, 8 h ago.

Star trust

Growth looks organic: forks and discussion are in line with active projects, and stars arrive unevenly, the way people give them.

These are heuristics, not a verdict: we judge by the repository’s behavior, not by a list of stargazers.
