Star-trust labels are heuristics based on the repository’s behavior, not a check of every stargazer. ## Numbers - Forks: 2,474 - Issues and pull requests: 5,509 - Watchers: 169 - Average over the last week: 1 per day - Usual pace: 2 per day - Latest release: v0.34.1 (2026-09-17) ## Stars per day, last 30 days (oldest → newest, today is partial) 2026-10-05 … 2026-11-03: None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None ## Magnitude by day, last 12 days 09-18 0.8, 09-19 0.9, 09-20 0.8, 09-21 0.9, 09-22 0.8, 09-23 0.6, 09-24 0.6, 09-25 0.3, 09-26 0.5, 09-27 0.7, 09-28 0.8, 09-29 0.5 --- 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.
