Snapshot taken immediately before the v0.7.2 posts, so the rolling 14-day GitHub window is preserved rather than reconstructed later.

Metric Value Since 07-22
Stars / forks / watchers 4 / 0 / 0 unchanged
Views (14d) 195 / 25 unique 160 / 14
Clones (14d) 634 / 204 unique 551 / 178
npm (7d) 677 652
External issues, PRs, forks 0 unchanged

204 unique cloners against 25 unique visitors, and 516 downloads on one release day followed by 0 today, continue to read as automation rather than people. Recorded as such.

The interpretation section states the thing the log exists to track: through 07-25 the binding constraint was correctness, and promoting a tool that could not find chalk's own colour-detection code would have converted qualified visitors into permanent non-users. That is now fixed and measured across three suites. What remains is that nobody outside this repository has run FixMap and said anything about it — and no further ranking work moves that number. The next milestone worth recording is one issue opened by a stranger.

Also records what v0.7.1 and v0.7.2 changed for evidence rather than features: the held-out suite, the confidence intervals, the two deleted figures, and the six passages of ready-to-paste growth-kit copy that quoted a hit rate which was never reproducible.

X and LinkedIn rows are entered with pending URLs rather than omitted, so the 24- and 72-hour checkpoints stay honest if either post produces nothing.

…checkpoints

Captures the snapshot taken immediately before the v0.7.2 posts: 4 stars, 0
forks, 0 watchers, 195 views from 25 unique visitors, 634 clones from 204
unique cloners, 677 npm downloads over seven days and 0 today.

The 204 unique cloners against 25 unique visitors, and the 516-then-0
download pattern around release days, continue to indicate automation rather
than people. Recorded as such rather than counted as adoption.

Notes what changed in the log's own terms: the binding constraint through
2026-07-25 was correctness, since promoting a tool that could not find
chalk's own colour detection would have converted qualified visitors into
permanent non-users. That is fixed and measured. What remains is that nobody
outside this repository has run FixMap and said anything about it, and no
further ranking work changes that number.

Also records the two figures deleted this release — a token proxy measured
against reading an entire repository, and a minutes-saved comparison against
an unmeasured baseline — and the six passages of ready-to-paste post copy in
the growth kit that quoted a hit rate which was never reproducible.

The X and LinkedIn rows are entered with pending URLs rather than omitted, so
the 24- and 72-hour checkpoints stay honest if either post produces nothing.
