Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

CLI user experience case study
Ive sort of managed to implement something to this effect in python, and from another comment made me consider yanking it out to its own library.
I made a process where args are now in a toml file, with some various data for different operations, like whether its available in the CLI or API library, its arg flags, help text required value type, etc. From that, i can generate argparse args, documentation, code for other things, etc. Right now im generating args, docs, and a js code block from the same structure.
Heres the toml file: https://gitlab.com/accidentallythecable-public/prover-suite/...
And some docs that were generated from that: https://gitlab.com/accidentallythecable-public/prover-suite/...
Maybe it will give you some ideas on yours

Ask HN: Do you read Secrets from Environment Variables
The Command Line Interface Guidelines [1] says:
> Do not read secrets from environment variables
> Secrets should only be accepted via credential files, pipes, `AF_UNIX` sockets, secret management services, or another IPC mechanism
Which one of these do you use? On github it seems common for projects to use environment variables for secrets.

Command Line Interface Guidelines
Seems they took a small step back from their previous "don't bother with man pages" stance. Now it's "Consider providing man pages."
I still find it a rather shocking order of priority, honestly.

Ask HN: Best way to do scoped commands in a CLI app
- E. `blah project foo --edit`
Wondering if there was any guidance on this from the UNIX people. Perhaps scoping should be done using the file system. `cd path/to/project && blah edit`. Like git does with `git --cwd=path/to/project`. Maybe a virtual FS could even be used. Then you wouldn't have to continuously type in the scope with each command. Interesting thinking about how to maintain state in the terminal...thinking about how Python's virtual env bin/activate modifies the shell.
Found an interesting guide here: https://clig.dev/

Capturing these guidelines is one of the primary reasons that https://clig.dev/ exists.
