## Why it’s here

- Star-counter measurements on 2026-10-06 (UTC), 03:06–04:30: 720 → 742 stars (+22). This is the change over that interval.
- Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +136 stars, using observed gains and the previous day.
- Over the last two days the pace is 4.3× 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.

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.
