About Jan
Jan ships sparse, low-level fixes — CSP and context-length defaults in a thin crawl window
Only two changelog entries are crawled for Jan, both small engineering fixes: a CSP change to let video uploads load and a llama.cpp default change disabling context auto-fit. The thin feed limits what can be inferred — these are maintenance commits, not feature direction. The sparse window may itself reflect a crawl-coverage gap rather than a genuinely quiet product.
