Survey beta

Agents are the new research associates. Give them a standard to work to.

That standard is published here. Method-curated repositories for research work; every entry traces to a sealed campaign ledger.

A method-curated survey of AI-era repositories, dated 2026-08-10. Not an audit, not an endorsement. Licensing under review.

What this is ↓

What this is

This site publishes the current state of a survey of open-source GitHub repositories, run as a research instrument. 81 recorded campaigns; the 69 under the current standard each froze a question and scope, screened under stated rules, and sealed a ledger. Twelve predate the standard and carry flags in place of counts. 70 of the 81 carry a placement on this hub; 11 of those are marked ingested, and 10 of the 11 admitted at least one repository — one admitted none. Entries are the admitted rows of those 10, and every campaign's ingestion status is shown on its category page.

Entries are repositories — libraries, benchmarks, specifications — whatever a campaign's ledger admitted as evidence.

Coverage claims appear verbatim, dated, and are never restated upward. Ordering is by category and name throughout; popularity metrics are reported, dated, and never used to sort. Absence renders as absence: dashes are not zeros, repositories that stop resolving remain as dated events, and thin categories say so.

The survey behind the registry

The funnel, as of 2026-08-10.

The survey so far: campaigns on the record, the ledger rows behind them, and the cohort the weekly design will track.

  • 81 campaigns on the record
  • 14 extracted campaigns ingested (both hubs)
  • 2,937 evidence-ledger rows (survey-wide)
  • 7,988 screening rows (survey-wide)
  • about 1,246 distinct repositories in the tracking cohort
  • 91 entries ingested

The standard

What an entry page may say.

The full standard — what an entry page shows, what it will never show, and how absence renders — is published.

10 of 70 campaigns placed on this hub have admitted at least one repository; 11 of 70 are marked ingested. Ingested = the campaign's admitted ledger rows were extracted for this site; a campaign can be ingested and have admitted no repositories. The rest are listed with their state shown.
