durability
bus factor = how many people it takes to cover more than half the commits (6 months). 1 is a solo project; higher means the work is spread across a team. top-author share is the single busiest author's slice of those commits.
since we covered it
why it's a big deal
- Automates turning research papers into runnable implementations, targeting researchers and engineers who otherwise reproduce algorithms by hand.
- Also generates front-end web apps and backend APIs from text specifications, covering three distinct code-generation tasks in one tool.
- Reports 76% on OpenAI's PaperBench versus 72% for a top machine learning PhD baseline, with roughly 16k GitHub stars.
under the hood
- Python system built around a multi-agent pipeline, with separate agents for intent understanding, document parsing, code planning, code generation, and reference mining under a central orchestrator.
- Integrates external tools through the Model Context Protocol, including filesystem, web fetch, GitHub download, and code execution servers.
- Uses a CodeRAG retrieval layer for code discovery and supports OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, and OpenRouter-compatible model providers, with CLI, React web UI, and Docker interfaces.

curve is sampled from GitHub's star history, plus our own daily readings since we covered it; the dashed stretch is before we first covered it, the solid line since. figures at coverage are the numbers we printed then (approx.), current count is live.
understory
Better known than its recent output, coasting a little on attention.
- output, commits & releases
- clout, star velocity
output = commits & releases; clout = star velocity, both 0 to 100 monthly indices; the gap where output runs above clout is the understory. The understory →
