What drives this score

TreeSHAP contributions; raises risk / lowers risk

Survival curve

P(still no release) m months ahead, discrete-time hazard model

What if? — poke the model

drag a signal and the deployed models rescore this package live (implied signals move together — two years without a release also zeroes "releases, last 12mo"). The needle tracks the activity-collapse model, a logistic regression: monotone by construction, so it responds smoothly to counterfactuals where the tree models step.

maintainer activity collapse, 12mo

In plain words

no pushes to the repository in 10 months
