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

Star growth looks organic. Data as of November 9, 2026, 01:38 UTC.

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

Stars per day

0100200August 12, 2026November 9, 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 2026-11-09 (UTC), 00:02–01:28: 6904 → 6908 stars (+4). This is the change over that interval.
  • Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +148 stars, using observed gains and the previous day.
  • Over the last two days the pace is 14× that of the previous week and a half.
  • Elevated gains were measured on the last 2 completed UTC days in a row. Continued growth is not guaranteed.
  • Hacker News: “ISponsorBlockTV: SponsorBlock client for all YouTube TV clients” — 126 points, 21 h ago.

Measured growth: the last 7 completed days

New stars over 7 days: 316. +365% 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.
