this one has more stars and more popular
There's no major lawsuits about this yet, the general consensus is that even under current regulations it's in the grey. And even if you turn out to be right, and let's say 99% of this code is AI-generated, you're still breaking the law by using the other 1%, and good luck proving in court what parts of their code were human written and what weren't (especially when being sued by the company that literally has the LLM logs).
"I have a popular repo, but the content will likely be removed and I won't have personally gained from the saga: how can I fix the part where I didn't profit?"
"Eureka! I'll remove the content preemptively, then come up with a backstory that justifies reusing the now empty repo for building the umpteenth coding harness! And I can even claim fuzzy ties to Claude Code!"
Hence the new description:
> The fastest repo in history to surpass 50K stars , reaching the milestone in just 2 hours after publication. Better Harness Tools, not merely storing the archive of leaked Claude Code but also make real things done. Now rewriting in Rust.
This is what I'm referring to.
That project you quoted is the one with that as its new description. Soon it'll just be [new thing] that happens to use the stars as social proof... in fact when I look again:
> The fastest repo in history to surpass 100K stars . Better Harness Tools that make real things done. Built in Rust using oh-my-codex.
They started a new project that justifies the same repo and scrapes a little credibility off of Claude Code. The intent is not an actual rewrite but to bolster what will be their own personal project trying to compete with OpenCode and co.
