Unix system admin utilities

This cluster is a set of Unix/Linux system administration utilities, including terminal and desktop tools for browsing user/group info, manual pages, file permissions, and open files. The pre-index dated entries appear in six isolated months (2014-02, 2019-04, 2024-10, 2025-02, 2025-03, 2026-07), each with a single entry, yielding a sparse and irregular timeline with multi-year gaps. Traction leaders FortranOmni, protonux-bin, and ugm each show 0 stars, so no product stands out in user activity.

Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.

Two labels per entry, never collapsed into one: how it was built, and who stands behind it. Counted over the 9 listed below. Unlabelled means nothing has decided yet — not that the answer is small.

Ranked by traction, highest first, and paged 20 at a time — this is a window on the cluster, never the whole of it. Ties are broken by a stable id so a product cannot appear on two pages or fall between them. Browse every cluster.
