# thomasunise/argus

> Self-hosted multi-tenant security operations platform where AI agents only analyze evidence from an evidence graph, while a separate approval-gated action broker is the only component allowed to change infrastructure.

- Magnitude: 2.1 out of 10 — Steady
- Stars: 23 total · +5 stars measured 2026-10-24, 18:00–19:26 UTC, ≈ 6 by evening
- Star trust: star growth looks organic
- Category: Security · Language: Python · License: MIT · Created: 2026-10-24 · Last push: 2026-10-24
- GitHub: https://github.com/thomasunise/argus · Homepage: thomasunise.com/argus · Page: https://gitnova.dev/en/r/thomasunise/argus

## Useful for

- Deploy the platform via Docker Compose and connect AWS, Kubernetes and Okta collectors
- Run swarm, identity and cloud detections on events and triage findings
- Configure the action broker with dry runs and approvals for safe cloud changes

## Why it’s here

- Star-counter measurements on 2026-10-24 (UTC), 18:00–19:26: 18 → 23 stars (+5). This is the change over that interval.
- Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +6 stars, using observed gains and the previous day.
- The repository is 0 days old and already has 23 stars. With less than two weeks of history, there's no usual pace to compare the spike against yet.

## Star trust

Star growth looks organic.

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

## Numbers

- Forks: 2
- Issues and pull requests: 14
- Watchers: 0
- Average over the last week: 6 per day
- Usual pace: too little history (under two weeks)
- Stars in the last hour (measured): 4

## Stars per day, last 1 day (oldest → newest, today is partial)

2026-10-24 … 2026-10-24: 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.
