## Why it’s here

- Star-counter measurements on 2026-11-02 (UTC), 09:20–10:52: 166 → 392 stars (+226). This is the change over that interval.
- Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +359 stars, using observed gains and the previous day.
- The repository is 2 days old and already has 392 stars. With less than two weeks of history, there's no usual pace to compare the spike against yet.
- Top new repositories this week: #50.

## Star trust

Unusual star pattern (heuristic).
- Very few forks: 1 for 392 stars. Active projects usually have 3–15 forks per 100 stars.

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

## Numbers

- Forks: 1
- Issues and pull requests: 0

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.
