The share of each quarter’s commits that name an AI coding assistant: as their author, as a co-author, or in the line it signs with. A lower bound: an assistant that leaves no mark is not counted. Commits and active authors are those of the last 12 months; health is the project's pace of the last year.

What is counted

Accounts and addresses are matched, not first names: a person called Claude, Devin or Jules is not an assistant.
