Open-source real-time voice call demo using OpenAI's Realtime API.

A single HN post (#15 in a tiny 15-item pool) drove all signal for a thin wrapper around OpenAI's beta Realtime API. No GitHub traction, no community adoption, no original technical contribution beyond a basic demo implementation.

Why now: OpenAI Realtime API beta launched recently; HN posts about any implementation spike temporarily regardless of repo quality.

• Only HN source present with rank 15 in a minuscule 15-row HN pool — effectively the bottom of a tiny sample
• GitHub rank absent (score 0), zero stars/activity signal in sourceStats
• No X, Reddit, Product Hunt, Dev.to, or Bluesky presence despite Realtime API being highly discussable topic
• oursRank 64 with score 1.3 indicates our pipeline barely surfaced it and assigned minimal internal weight
• 179 of 200 pool entries are single_source — this is typical noise distribution, not exceptional signal

Considerations: This is a demo wrapper for a vendor beta API with no differentiation, no community, and no technical depth. The HN post likely rode temporary interest in OpenAI's Realtime API launch, not the repo itself. Single-source + tiny HN pool + zero GitHub velocity = classic false positive from API-release news cycle.

EMERGING SIGNAL · Ignore: Skip — if real demand for Realtime API wrappers emerges, stronger implementations with actual GitHub adoption will surface cross-source.
