XTLS/Xray-core is upstream — no successor needed (project active). Top forks by stars are all stale (pushes >1y ago). Successor detection activates if the repo goes dormant.
If this repo goes dormant, this section becomes “Where did development continue?” — with evidence labels per fork.

Max release gap in 12mo: 54d (cadence 47.7d median)
These answers regenerate on every snapshot — they never rot.
Partially — activity is slowing (score 67/100). Last stable release v26.3.27 177 days ago, 3 commits in the last full week, median PR merge 3.0d. Evidence collected Mon Sep 21 2026.
MPL-2.0 — as reported by GitHub.
v26.3.27, 177 days ago. Median gap between stable releases is 47.7 days; 0 stable releases shipped in the last 90 days — the current 177d gap is well above that median.
On the evidence: caution. 49 human authors in 12 months, no fork-succession pressure. Caveat for contributors: the newcomer funnel is weak (0% first-PR merge rate). Not published to npm — GitHub activity only.
