# CratesDataset

This revision publishes the immutable crates.io metadata snapshot `2026-04-17` generated by CratesDataset `0.1.0`. It contains eight extractive or deterministic analytical tables.

## Load a table

```python
from datasets import load_dataset

versions = load_dataset(
    "Aptlantis/crates-dataset", "crate_versions", split="train"
)
```

Parquet is the configured Hub representation used by the dataset viewer. Matching JSONL-Zstandard files are available under `data/jsonl/` as direct downloads; they are intentionally excluded from `configs` to prevent duplicate rows.

## Dataset catalog

| Configuration | Grain | Rows |
| --- | --- | ---: |
| `crate_versions` | one crate version | 2211049 |
| `crate_lifecycles` | one crate | 254393 |
| `dependency_edges` | one dependency declaration | 24371144 |
| `feature_edges` | one feature activation/member relationship | 10207011 |
| `release_transitions` | one adjacent release pair | 1956656 |
| `yanked_versions` | one yanked version | 98778 |
| `yank_replacements` | one yanked version and deterministic replacement candidate | 98778 |
| `manifest_patterns` | one rule match | 1834611 |

## Provenance

- Snapshot: `2026-04-17`
- Source rows: 2211049
- Rejected rows: 0
- Source SHA-256: `abe618adfec4f4927fec90e11a8d10c0898bf731cb7462658080957d621bcfb1`
- Generator: `0.1.0`
- DuckDB: `v1.5.5 (Variegata) d8cdaa33fd`
- Derivation: `extractive+deterministic`

The exact file hashes, validation evidence, source identity, schemas, and distribution basis are included in `metadata/` and `schemas/`.

## Limitations

- The source snapshot contains yank state but no yank-event timestamp.
- Yank replacement records are deterministic candidates, not authoritative maintainer intent.
- Manifest patterns are reproducible signals and do not establish maliciousness.

`yank_replacements` contains deterministic candidate replacements. They are not maintainer-confirmed replacements or authoritative explanations for a yank.

Manifest-pattern matches are reproducible signals, not evidence of maliciousness, vulnerability, or abandonment.

## Attribution and distribution
