The star, fork, contributor and release counts were typed into the templates
by hand, so they only moved when somebody remembered. They had already
drifted: stars read 48,042 against 48,067, forks 4,314 against 4,320, and
contributors 224 against 225.
They move to website/data/stats.yaml, which .github/ci/refresh-site-counters.sh
rewrites from the GitHub API, run weekly by a new workflow. The contributors
and releases endpoints never report a total, so the script asks for one item
per page and reads the count out of the Link header. It refuses to write a
zero or a non-number, which is what a rate-limited or failed call looks like,
and the workflow commits only when a number actually moved. The Discord count
has no API behind it, so the script reads the existing value back and carries
it through.
The engine count was wrong in a second way. The hero said 18, the section
heading said "Eighteen engines", the timeline said "Nineteen engines of our
own", and the /engines/ page derived 19 from the data file. All of them now
derive from that same file, so they cannot disagree again.
