About the project

Whole-disk file search for macOS with fuzzy name matching, typo tolerance, and an indexed grep-like content search, running as a CLI with a background daemon or as a Rust crate.

Useful for
  • Find a file by approximate name across the whole disk without leaving the terminal
  • Grep inside text files with a trigram index for fast pattern matching
  • Run as a background daemon so new, renamed, and deleted files appear within ~0.1 s

5.6 Early signal Magnitude out of 10 — how fast interest is growing, not a quality score.

Star growth looks organic. Data as of October 8, 2026, 20:40 UTC.

The star-growth assessment does not verify whether the project is safe to run.

Stars per day

Bars show daily stars; the line is a moving average of the available history. Short histories do not yet establish a reliable usual pace. Red marks spike days.

Why it’s trending

  • Star-counter measurements on 2026-10-08 (UTC), 19:38–20:36: 101 → 175 stars (+74). This is the change over that interval.
  • Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +84 stars, using observed gains and the previous day.
  • The repository is 0 days old and already has 175 stars. With less than two weeks of history, there's no usual pace to compare the spike against yet.
  • Top new repositories this week: #106.
  • About 138 forks a day — people are taking the code.

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.
