## Why it’s here

- Star-counter measurements on 2026-11-09 (UTC), 03:32–04:13: 1857 → 1951 stars (+94). This is the change over that interval.
- Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +1,197 stars, using observed gains and the previous day.
- Over the last two days the pace is 35× that of the previous 9 days.
- The repository is 11 days old and already has 1,951 stars. With less than two weeks of history, there's no usual pace to compare the spike against yet.
- Top new repositories this month: #92.
- About 232 forks a day — people are taking the code.

## Star trust

Star growth looks organic.

Star-trust labels are heuristics based on the repository’s behavior, not a check of every stargazer.

## Numbers

- Forks: 129
- Issues and pull requests: 393
- Watchers: 13
- Average over the last week: 451 per day
- Usual pace: too little history (under two weeks)

- Latest release: v0.5.0 (2026-11-08)

Magnitude (0–10) measures how fast and how unusually interest in a repository is growing right now. It is not a quality score.
Days are UTC. “So far today” is a fact; “expected by the end of the day” is a forecast.
Summaries and use cases are written by an LLM (DeepSeek V4.1 Flash) from the README and may be inaccurate: verify specific claims (benchmarks, speed, hardware) in the repository itself.
