The work

12commits
12by Jamie
7publications

A commit is with an agent when an agent authored it or signed it with a co-author line, or when one of Jamie’s agents made it under its own name. Codex seldom signs its commits, so much of its work counts as Jamie’s here. Bots’ commits, meaning dependency updates and the collector’s own, are left out.

Commits, then publications. A thing’s commits are those in its own repositories, or in its directory of one it shares.
