How we compile this report

Every figure comes from a public source: star counts from the GitHub API, story scores and links from Hacker News (via Algolia), papers from arXiv and Hugging Face Daily Papers, and new repositories from GitHub search. Hacker News link counts include stories whose link points to the tool's own domain. Listing dates are the day a tool joined TrueIQ. Numbers are shown as recorded; if a figure is unavailable, it is left out rather than estimated.
