Agent-Specific Historical Backfill.
Pulls historical data for the 57-agent registry from sources that support
date-range queries. This extends the observation window from 14 days to
3+ months for the NeurIPS D&B submission.
Backfill sources:
- Hacker News (Algolia API): full history, date-filterable
- arXiv: papers mentioning agents from last 6 months
- Stack Overflow: questions with fromdate/todate (SE API v2.3)
- GitHub: star history, releases, contributor growth
- PyPI: historical download stats (pypistats.org)
Usage:
python -m collectors.backfill_agents # all sources, 3 months
python -m collectors.backfill_agents --source hn # HN only
python -m collectors.backfill_agents --months 4 # go back 4 months
python -m collectors.backfill_agents --source github # GitHub history
