How does beam rank Coding Assistants tools?

Beam fuses five orthogonal signals into a single velocity score: code activity, package adoption, research citation, sentiment, and production signals. The score multiplies across signals, so any one signal collapsing pulls the whole score down — that's how beam catches stars-up-commits-down decay. Full methodology at /about/methodology.
