## Useful for

- Connect Claude Code or Gemini CLI to PostgreSQL and explore the schema in plain English
- Build a custom tool with a parameterized SQL query via tools.yaml for a production agent
- Set up connection pooling and OpenTelemetry tracing for agent access to BigQuery or Spanner

## Why it’s here

- Star-counter measurements on 2026-10-11 (UTC), 00:02–11:09: 16642 → 16643 stars (+1). This is the change over that interval.
- Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +5 stars, using observed gains and the previous day.

## Star trust

Star growth looks organic.

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

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.
