How many people use perchai-cli?

npm counted 3,871 downloads of perchai-cli in the last 7 days. Nobody can count people exactly, npm included: it does not record who downloaded what. After removing mirror spikes and crawlers, about 1.5K–3.46K look like real installs. Noise is 59% of npm's count. What remains still includes CI and installs as a dependency of other packages.

Is perchai-cli still maintained?

Most likely yes, going by its releases. The latest version, 2.4.128, came out on Nov 10, 2026. The last 12 months saw 122 stable releases, typically 2 days apart. It was first published on Jun 9, 2026. npm lists 1 maintainer.

Is perchai-cli still used?

Downloads with publish spikes removed are up 818% over 3 months. Last week, 100% of downloads above the crawler floor were on major version 2, the latest one; the most used single version was 2.4.126, with 39%. Weekdays get 1.04× the downloads of weekends, so there is no clear work-week rhythm. Over the last 12 months, 10,354 downloads arrived in publish spikes and were attributed to mirrors. Crawlers account for about 488 downloads a week, roughly 4 per version.

Monthly downloads of perchai-cli

The busiest month was Oct 2026, with about 199 downloads a day once publish spikes are removed; the quietest was Jul 2026, with about 71.

Whole months through Oct 31, 2026. Publish spikes are found day by day and summed per month. Real installs apply this week's crawler share to each month's downloads (the upper end also keeps the removed spikes), so they follow npm's curve rather than measure it. The change compares spike-free downloads per day.

How the estimate works

  1. Cut the spike every new version gets from mirrors in its first days.
  2. Subtract the flat floor robots download from every version each week.
  3. Show what is left as a range, with a confidence level. It still includes CI and dependency installs, so it is not a count of people.
