2.2 Steady Magnitude out of 10 — how fast interest is growing, not a quality score.

Star growth looks organic. Data as of November 14, 2026, 10:41 UTC.

GitNova spotted this repository 43 days before GitHub Trending.

Stars per day

060120August 17, 2026November 14, 2026

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), 00:06–10:36: 7036 → 7048 stars (+12). This is the change over that interval.
  • Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +31 stars, using observed gains and the previous day.

Measured growth: the last 7 completed days

New stars over 7 days: 331. +37% 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.
