## Useful for

- Run Claude Code and a test watcher in separate panes of one project.
- Keep agent sessions alive after closing the window and reopen with scrollback intact.
- Drive sessions from scripts with the kero CLI to start, split and read panes.

## Why it’s here

- Star-counter measurements on 2026-11-03 (UTC), 00:37–01:22: 1369 → 1370 stars (+1). This is the change over that interval.
- Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +13 stars, using observed gains and the previous day.
- Interest is fading: the two-day pace is 49% of the previous week and a half.
- GitHub Trending Go today: #4, +15 stars.

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.
