About the project

Agent Substrate is a secure-by-default agent execution runtime built on Kubernetes that multiplexes many "actors" onto a small pool of workers with sub-second suspend/resume and isolation via microVMs and gVisor. It is meant for running agent workloads at scale, not for building them.

Useful for
  • Run hundreds of stateful agents on a few pods while preserving state across sessions
  • Deploy sandboxed MCP servers as Substrate actors to provide secure model tools
  • Set up high-density coding-agent environments that keep filesystem state between runs

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

Star growth looks organic. Data as of November 3, 2026, 19:06 UTC.

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

Stars per day

0250500August 6, 2026November 3, 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 2026-11-03 (UTC), 00:35–18:55: 6031 → 6047 stars (+16). This is the change over that interval.
  • Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +20 stars, using observed gains and the previous day.
  • Recent forks include notable developers: @den-vasyliev (251 followers).

Measured growth: the last 7 completed days

New stars over 7 days: 207. -10% versus the preceding 7 days.

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.
