CLUSTER LOLCAT-SHARK-SIMILAR · 5 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2023-04-14

Rainbow animated terminal tools

This cluster consists of command-line tools that add animated characters (protagen or shark) with rainbow color effects to terminal output, drawing inspiration from lolcat. The dated history shows sporadic entries from April 2023 to March 2026, with two initial entries in April 2023 followed by single entries in October 2023, September 2024, and March 2026. All traction leaders (blahaj-cli, blahaj-d, blahaj) show zero stars, indicating minimal community engagement.

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 5 listed below. Unlabelled means nothing has decided yet — not that the answer is small.
