📈 Timelinewhat changed, and when
- Accelerating github_stars gained 264 in the last 3d vs 173 in the 3d before (ratio 1.5x, threshold 1.5x)
- Cooling github_stars momentum fell to 0 per 3d from 89 (<= 40% of the prior window)
- Anomaly daily change 14.0 is -3.5 standard deviations from this entity's own prior mean (62.4±13.8, baseline excludes this point) — unusual, not necessarily adoption
