Repository Activity

Latest observed public commit: November 1, 2026. Observations track public default branches and archive-specific paths, independently of published releases. Scoped commits can include metadata edits; they are not evidence of new research. Checks older than eight days are marked stale. All times use America/Toronto.

Working Activity

Privacy-safe daily summaries of working histories, separate from public default-branch commits and released snapshots. Reports can cover committed local/private project work. They do not count uncommitted edits, hours, effort, or release readiness. Never add these totals to the public charts: the same work may appear in both views.

Star Swarm is an independent parallel comparison with Aurora, developed using Claude and Firstmate. Firstmate is its development platform, not a separate project or activity series. Star Swarm and Aurora keep separate histories, releases, and work reports.

Each row has its own fixed reporting window. Missing reports are unknown, not zero. Unclassified commits can include code, content, publication, and automated backups; they are not all coding. The hub never advances source report times during rendering.
