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

Star growth looks organic. Data as of September 26, 2026, 10:58 UTC.

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

Stars per day

0100200August 5, 2026November 2, 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

  • 7 stars so far today, about 18 expected by the end of the day.
  • Interest is fading: the two-day pace is 44% of the previous week and a half.
  • Recent forks include notable developers: @knu (543 followers), @Meldiron (295 followers).

Measured growth: the last 7 completed days

The full 7-day window is unavailable; no weekly total or comparison is calculated.

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.
