Caution
Caution: one person wrote most of the recent commits.
Why
- One person wrote 92% of human commits in the last year, so the project depends on them continuing. (source 1, source 2)
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.; Only 4 recent issues can be checked for a response, too few to measure response time.)

Stars
CompleteMostly organic, confidence high
Bursts
- May 3, 2026 to Jun 1, 2026: about 19.3k more stars than usual, peak 2.8k in one day, a spike that tapers off. Outside explanation: a Hacker News post, a jump in forks, a jump in issues and pull requests.
- Aug 10, 2026 to Aug 12, 2026: about 293 more stars than usual, peak 284 in one day, a spike that tapers off. Outside explanation: a jump in forks, a jump in issues and pull requests.
- Sep 1, 2026 to Sep 4, 2026: about 1.4k more stars than usual, peak 685 in one day, a spike that tapers off. Outside explanation: a jump in issues and pull requests.
- Engagement is low for a repo this size (forks, watchers, issues, contributors).
- 6 stars GitHub has since removed (tracked since Oct 13, 2026).
Anyone can buy stars for any repo; bursts alone don't prove the owner did.
- Forks, watchers, issues, and contributors are low for the number of stars.
- Anyone can buy stars for any repo, so this describes the star history only.
