| """ |
| 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 |
