- [apache/flink](https://seerepo.com/r/apache/flink): Apache Flink
- [appsmithorg/appsmith](https://seerepo.com/r/appsmithorg/appsmith): Platform to build admin panels, internal tools, and dashboards. Integrates with 25+ databases and any API.

- Size: Lines written by people and agents, without generated ones; code files, without tests.
- Who writes it: A commit counts as AI's when it carries its signature: a Co-Authored-By line, its author name or the merge of its branch.
- Activity: From GitHub and its history, on the day SeeRepo read it.
- Tests: The files that test the code, and the share of code files a test imports.
