At risk

At risk: one person wrote most commits, and no one has committed by hand in 90 days.

Why

One person wrote 89% of human commits in the last year, and no human has committed in the last 90 days. (source 1, source 2)
GitHub found no license file, so the code is not clearly licensed for reuse. (source 1)

What would change this

A human commit in the last 90 days, or a second person taking a large share of commits.
A license file is added.

Bursts

May 14, 2026 to May 16, 2026: about 140 more stars than usual, peak 82 in one day, a spike that tapers off. We couldn't check for an outside explanation.
May 31, 2026 to Jun 2, 2026: about 102 more stars than usual, peak 75 in one day, a spike that tapers off. Outside explanation: a jump in forks.
Jul 13, 2026 to Jul 13, 2026: about 27 more stars than usual, peak 31 in one day, a spike that tapers off. Outside explanation: a jump in forks.
Aug 21, 2026 to Aug 23, 2026: about 89 more stars than usual, peak 49 in one day, a spike that tapers off. Outside explanation: a jump in forks.
Sep 8, 2026 to Sep 9, 2026: about 116 more stars than usual, peak 104 in one day, a spike that tapers off. Outside explanation: a jump in forks.

Engagement is low for a repo this size (forks, watchers, issues, contributors).

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.
