ℹ︎ How to read this score
Signals, not verdicts. A ghost score (0–100) estimates the probability that a repository will go 12 months without a non-bot commit, become archived, or be deprecated. A high score is a prompt to check your dependency health — never an accusation against its maintainers.

glob

“A cornerstone of the Node.js ecosystem that continues to pulse with immense vitality. Its steady rhythm supports millions of workflows every single day.”

Vital signs

hover or focus any vital for threshold guidance
commit pulse (26 wks)

Weekly commit cadence over the last 6 months; flatlined means 0 recent commits.

last commit
3 days ago

Threshold: >365 days without a commit strongly elevates ghost risk.

release gap
4 days

Threshold: >365 days since the latest registry release.

bus factor
not enough data

Share of commits by the single top author; >=80% means reliance on one person.

issue close rate
not enough data

Share of issues closed over the past year; <25% can signal backlog pressure.

weekly downloads
325,292,636

Recent weekly downloads from the package registry.

dependents
2,105,034

Public repositories or packages that depend on this project.

years active
16 years

Cause of death

Active & Maintained

Recent commits, releases, or maintainer activity indicate a healthy, living project.

  1. No conclusive risk evidence recorded — absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.

Ofrenda

Every candle represents a person who gave time to glob. In the Día de los Muertos tradition, an ofrenda welcomes back the memory of those who came before — honoring the hands that built the software we rely on.

Hold a seance

The spirit of glob answers strictly from its own records — README, releases, and issues. It never impersonates a maintainer and says “I don't remember that” when evidence is missing.

The candles are lit. Pick a question above or ask what glob did, how to migrate away, or how it ended.

Lighting the candles for maintainer support links…
