About these scores

OSS scale score is an unbounded metric that log-compresses and weights Stars, Watchers, Forks, and Contributors. Discovery score is the current OSS scale score minus the score at discovery. Update pace is commits in the last 30 days, growth momentum is the OSS scale score difference within the recent observation window, and OSS health is a 0–100 rating based on available recency, Community Health, and release data.

Before adoption

Current main is newer than the latest tagged release

GitHub's latest release is 2.0.3 from 2023, while the main branch has continued receiving updates through 2026. Compare the release artifact with current main before deployment.

AGPLv3 is combined with the Commons Clause

LICENSE.txt restricts selling a product or service whose value substantially derives from the software. Commercial use in that scope requires reviewing the separate Commercial License.

Supplemental curator note

Chaskiq describes itself as 'Free & Source Available'. LICENSE.txt combines AGPLv3 with the Commons Clause, which restricts selling products or services whose value substantially derives from the software. It should not be treated as standard AGPL open source; a separate commercial license is offered.
