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.

why it's a big deal
- Magnitude is a coding agent that runs entirely on open models, aimed at developers who want agentic coding without paying frontier model prices.
- It targets the cost side of AI-assisted coding, offering API pricing with no markup and $5 of free credits to start with no card required.
- For teams, it offers self-hosted open models, tailored model setups, and shared billing with spend limits and admin tools.
under the hood
- Built-in model routing directs work across open models to hold down cost while maintaining performance, per the README.
- It is distributed as a TypeScript CLI installed globally via npm as @magnitudedev/cli and invoked with the magnitude command.
- The agent authenticates against an API key from app.magnitude.dev, and on Windows it requires WSL.

understory
Quietly building: more output than attention, for now.
- 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 →
