CodeWhale

Single-source GitHub repo with no cross-platform traction.

CodeWhale appears only on GitHub (rank 20) with zero presence on Hacker News, X/Twitter, Reddit, Product Hunt, Dev.to, Bluesky, or Hugging Face. The consensus engine correctly flags this as single_source — the weakest signal category. No external validation exists.

Why now: Nothing changed. Appears in GitHub trending algorithm for a narrow time window without external pickup.

• Only GitHub signal; rank 20 but score 8096466090 suggests raw star/fork velocity without normalization context
• Zero coverage on 7 of 8 monitored sources including HN, X, Reddit, Product Hunt
• Pool context shows 178/200 entities are single_source — this is baseline noise, not exception

Considerations: GitHub-only repos can explode later, but 89% of single-source entities never gain traction. The high raw score may reflect bot stars, a single viral tweet not captured, or author self-promotion. No issue/PR velocity or contributor data visible.

EMERGING SIGNAL · Ignore: Do not allocate attention unless 2+ additional sources surface within 7 days.
