About the project

A declarative orchestrator for running autonomous AI agent workloads in a cluster, using a Kubernetes-like model with Task, Workspace, Gateway, and Model manifests. It sandboxes agents, pre-wires their environment, and restricts network access.

Useful for
  • Launch an agentic task with a sandboxed workspace and pre-cloned Git repo via ax apply
  • Restrict an agent's outbound traffic to an explicit host allowlist with a Gateway manifest
  • Shell into a running agent with ax ssh to inspect or debug it

1.4 Cooling 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

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), 00:09–01:34: 14569 → 14569 stars (+0). This is the change over that interval.
  • Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +6 stars, using observed gains and the previous day.
  • Recent forks include notable developers: @PratikDhanave (541 followers).

Measured growth: the last 7 completed days

New stars over 7 days: 126. -65% 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.
