How to read this. “Dark” means no public commit or event signal in 90+ days — not a verdict of abandonment. Some repos are stable, complete, or shipping privately. Stars are historical and never decay, which is exactly why they make a poor liveness signal on their own. We report the signal; you draw the conclusion. Methodology: /methodology.<br>Every figure here is recomputable from that day's index snapshot, which is hashed to a Merkle root and anchored on Base — a permanent record no one can rewrite.
