Hotness formula

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

  • 40% Hot today: 1
  • 40% Hot this week: 36
  • 20% Breakout: 2
  • Stars gained: 1d: 0
  • Stars gained: 7d: 54
  • Stars gained: 14d: 98
  • Stars gained: 30d: 213
  • Stars gained: 90d: 655

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: 47
  • 30% Closure: 49
  • 20% Shipping: 56
  • 10% Liveness: 93
  • 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.

Reliability breakdown

What drives the reliability score

Component scores measured daily from GitHub activity (2026-07-18).

Continuity30% of headline47

Activity on 36 of 90 tracked days in the last 90 and 9 of 30 in the last 30.

Closure30% of headline49

Merged 8 of 21 PRs opened and closed 16 of 26 issues opened over the last 90 tracked days — PR flow carries 55% of this component, issue flow 45%.

Shipping20% of headline56

5 releases in the last 180 days, 3 in the last 90 and 1 in the last 30 — a steady cadence scores highest.

Liveness10% of headline93

Last push 11 days ago — freshness decays as pushes age (roughly halves every 83 days without a push).

Support burden10% of headline95

103 open issues against 39,994 stars — about 3 open issues per 1,000 stars. Lighter backlogs score higher.

Adoption confidence82

Modeled — how confidently teams are adopting this repo. Stargazers

Maintenance quality59

Modeled from PR/issue responsiveness and upkeep signals. Activity pulse

Risk score26

Modeled — lower is better; adoption and continuity risk. Repository

Stays active (30d)56%

Modeled chance the repo stays active over 30 days. Activity pulse

Stays active (90d)60%

Modeled chance the repo stays active over 90 days. Activity pulse

Release rhythm (180d)56

Regularity of releases over the last 180 days. Releases

Maintainer bus risk (90d)53%

Modeled — lower is better; concentration of commits in few maintainers. Contributors graph

Daily ratio — a gap means nothing was opened that day

How this works: each day's value is issues closed that day ÷ issues opened that day. Days when nothing was opened render as gaps — never a rolling average or a made-up zero. Values above 1 mean the project closed more issues than arrived that day.
