Score breakdown
Popularity is tracked separately. Support, ads, sponsorships, and tips never affect these signals.
Why it matters
Most sysadmins + SREs + network engineers + DevOps engineers + IT generalists managing a mix of local + remote infrastructure today have been either (a) juggling PuTTY + WinSCP + Remote Desktop + VNC Viewer + a separate terminal emulator + a separate file manager + a separate web browser (high taskbar clutter, no AI integration, no unified dashboard), (b) adopting a single-vendor admin tool (Royal

How this item is evaluated
RepoRadar assigned KKTerm: MIT Tauri 2 + Rust Cross-Platform Admin Terminal Workspace with SSH + SFTP + RDP + VNC + Approval-Gated AI Assistant (263*, macOS Apple Silicon + Windows, < 20MB Binary) a composite score of 8.2 out of 10, placing it in the Gold tier. This score combines weighted sub-signals: usefulness (35%), novelty (18%), momentum (14%), maturity (10%), open-source/build quality (7%), evidence quality (6%), workflow potential (6%), and setup ease (4%). Popularity is tracked separately at 0.0 and never affects the composite score or tier. The risk label of 'low' reflects inherent user-impacting hazards, not generic novelty. Items with no risk flag may still require normal code review before production use.

Risk explanation
The 263* repo is at active maintenance but the consumer SHOULD note the AI assistant `Allow All` mode is opt-in (default is `Prompt` for approval gating); the consumer SHOULD note the dangerous-command detection flags `rm -rf` and similar patterns but the human-approval loop is still the safety boundary; the consumer SHOULD review the SSH key + agent + jump host configuration before production; the consumer SHOULD note the AI assistant API keys are stored in the OS keychain (per README).
