02Drivers

What shapes this result

Mode, timing, and detected signatures show whether the result reflects broad adoption or one concentrated workflow.

Assisted or autonomous

36assisted
0autonomous

Assisted — a developer’s identity authored the commit and the agent added itself as co-author. Autonomous — a bot identity authored the commit without a human identity attached. Across the whole index, 96% of agent commits are assisted.

04Method

What entered the denominator

The result begins with commit history, removes merges and routine automation, and reports literal agent signatures as a lower bound.

Exclusion ledger

Commits in window1,716
Merge commits removed−5
CI / dependency bots removed−0
Considered1,711

Bots are excluded from the denominator entirely. Agent attribution requires a literal supported signature; no code-style inference is used.

05Provenance

Pinned to a source state

This observation names the repository state, release, and detector that produced it. Use these identifiers when reproducing or citing the result.

06Peer context

Position among comparable repositories

The cohort uses the same release and measurement window, then narrows to the repository’s ecosystem and removes low-activity observations.

CohortObjective-C · 1 eligible repositories · at least 100 considered commits2026-09-18-v3.0 · February–September 15, 2026 · 0 of 1 ecosystem repositories excluded
Comparison withheld for a small cohort

Only 1 eligible repositories remain; qmmit requires at least 10 before showing a percentile. The cohort definition and sample size remain visible so the omission is auditable.

Deterministic signature matching; no code-style inference. Squash merges can remove trailers, so this result remains a measured floor.
