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

Star growth looks organic. Data as of October 5, 2026, 11:14 UTC.

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

Stars per day

03060July 8, 2026October 5, 2026

Bars show daily stars; the line is a moving average of the available history. Short histories do not yet establish a reliable usual pace. Red marks spike days.

Why it’s trending

  • There are not enough fresh counter measurements for today's UTC day. The gain is unknown.
  • Over the last two days the pace is 4× that of the previous week and a half.
  • GitHub Trending Python today: #5, +57 stars.

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.
