Forks expose upstream dependencies and research-adjacent tooling before they show up in polished launch posts. They are a quiet signal for infra, eval, agent, and model-adjacent work.
Cohere leads this loaded window with 26 signals. The most repeated upstream dependency is vllm-project/vllm. Latest signal: Anthropic - anthropics/leptos-chartistry - forked from feral-dot-io/leptos-chartistry.
