Hotness formula

40% Hot today + 40% Hot this week + 20% Breakout.

40% Hot today: 1
40% Hot this week: 28
20% Breakout: 16
Stars gained: 1d: 0
Stars gained: 7d: 7
Stars gained: 14d: 13
Stars gained: 30d: 17
Stars gained: 90d: 79

Per-day formula: 0.40 × Hot today + 0.40 × Hot week + 0.20 × Breakout.

Same-day multiplier = stars 1d ÷ max(1, stars 7d ÷ 7)
Weekly multiplier = stars 7d ÷ max(1, stars 30d ÷ 30 × 7)
Fortnight multiplier = stars 14d ÷ max(1, stars 90d ÷ 90 × 14)
Hot today = clamp(70 × log-scale(stars 1d, 1000) + 30 × breakout-scale(same-day, 4))
Hot week = clamp(75 × log-scale(stars 7d, 5000) + 25 × breakout-scale(weekly, 3))
Breakout = clamp(35 × breakout-scale(same-day, 4) + 40 × breakout-scale(weekly, 3) + 25 × breakout-scale(fortnight, 2.5))

Weekly average

Full metrics details

Derived from the displayed continuity, closure, shipping, liveness, and support-burden components.

180 observed daily rows. Missing days are not fabricated.

Reliability formula

30% Continuity + 30% Closure + 20% Shipping + 10% Liveness + 10% Support burden.

30% Continuity: 25
30% Closure: 55
20% Shipping: 0
10% Liveness: 48
10% Support burden: 95

Per-day formula: 0.30 × Continuity + 0.30 × Closure + 0.20 × Shipping + 0.10 × Liveness + 0.10 × Support burden.

Continuity = 35% active ratio 90d + 20% active ratio 30d + 15% PR efficiency 90d + 10% PR efficiency 30d + 10% liveness + 10% observed-history coverage
Closure = 55% PR merge efficiency 90d + 45% issue close efficiency 90d
Shipping = 100 × (20% × release ratio 30d + 30% × release ratio 90d + 50% × release ratio 180d); ratios are releases ÷ 2, 6, and 12, capped at 1
Support burden = 100 − 2 × open issues per 1,000 stars
Liveness = 100 × exp(−pushed days ago ÷ 120)

Stars, issues, pull requests, and releases are daily observations. Pushed-days and license are repository snapshot-derived inputs and are not independent historical GitHub events.
