About the project
A dialect-aware formatter, linter and language server for Scheme, Emacs Lisp and Common Lisp with byte-exact comment preservation and idempotent formatting.
Useful for
- Format a Scheme or Emacs Lisp file without losing comments or blank lines
- Attach sift lsp to Emacs via Eglot or Neovim for on-the-fly linting
- Run sift ci in a pipeline to check formatting and lint rules

Star growth looks organic. Data as of November 14, 2026, 10:41 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 2026-11-14 (UTC), 00:03–10:33: 72 → 73 stars (+1). This is the change over that interval.
- Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +11 stars, using observed gains and the previous day.
- Elevated gains were measured on the last 2 completed UTC days in a row. Continued growth is not guaranteed.
- The repository is 14 days old and already has 73 stars.
- Hacker News: “Sift: LSP, Lint, Format Lisp, Scheme and Emacs Lisp” — 83 points, 2 days ago.
Measured growth: the last 7 completed days
New stars over 7 days: 73.

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.
