Quick update: star history is from the full report of Oct 20, 2026.

Caution

One person wrote most of the recent commits.

## Why

- One person wrote 70% of human commits in the last year, so the project depends on them continuing. ([source 1](https://github.com/AssemblyAI/blurt/commits), [source 2](https://github.com/AssemblyAI/blurt/graphs/contributors))

### What would change this

- A second person takes a substantial share of commits.
- Partly checked: maintenance (Commit counts are estimated: the commit sample stops before the window start, so GitHub's totals were scaled by the sampled bot share.; Authors in the last 90 days are counted from the sampled commits only.)

## Stars

Complete

Not enough data, confidence low

Bars show stars gained each week. Red bars overlap a burst.

### Bursts

- **Sep 15, 2026 to Sep 17, 2026**: about 38 more stars than usual, peak 26 in one day, a spike that tapers off. No outside explanation found, so this burst is unexplained.

Anyone can buy stars for any repo; bursts alone don't prove the owner did.

- Not enough star history yet to judge the star count.
- No engagement peer data covers this repository, so engagement is not compared.
- Star history from the full report of Oct 20, 2026; this update did not re-read it.
