Actively maintained by 7 people, no known risks.

## Why

No warning signs: none of the [verdict rules](https://reporadar.ai/methodology) applied to this repo.

### What would change this

- 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.)
- A dormant maintenance status, a deprecated or archived package, a successor link, or a critical advisory would change this.

## Stars

Complete

Mostly organic, confidence medium

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

### Bursts

- **Apr 29, 2026 to May 16, 2026**: about 282 more stars than usual, peak 55 in one day, a spike that tapers off. We couldn't check for an outside explanation.
- **Aug 13, 2026 to Aug 14, 2026**: about 24 more stars than usual, peak 15 in one day, a spike that tapers off. Outside explanation: a jump in forks, a jump in issues and pull requests.
- **Sep 17, 2026 to Sep 17, 2026**: about 27 more stars than usual, peak 29 in one day, a spike that tapers off. No outside explanation found, so this burst is unexplained.
- **Sep 24, 2026 to Sep 25, 2026**: about 63 more stars than usual, peak 51 in one day, a spike that tapers off. Outside explanation: a jump in forks, a jump in issues and pull requests.
- **Sep 29, 2026 to Oct 2, 2026**: about 147 more stars than usual, peak 57 in one day, a flat block of stars. Outside explanation: a jump in forks, a jump in issues and pull requests.
