About the project
A collection of busy beaver results with machine-checked Coq proofs: record-holding BB(8), BB(10), BB(12) machines and a 335-state machine that halts iff ZFC is inconsistent.
Useful for
- Verify the Coq proof of halting and exact score for the BB(10) machine
- Run the independent simulator to re-check the BB(10) analysis rules
- Study how the 335-state machine relates to ZFC consistency

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 2026-10-13 (UTC), 15:55–17:48: 2 → 3 stars (+1). This is the change over that interval.
- Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +1 stars, using observed gains and the previous day.
- The repository is 9 days old and already has 3 stars. With less than two weeks of history, there's no usual pace to compare the spike against yet.

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.
