Score: 6.3/10 (Innovation: 6, Technical: 6, Documentation: 5, Utility: 7)

Libyears measures dependency debt in 'libyears' (years behind latest releases) across multiple repositories, highlighting dangerous drift and shared dependencies. It provides a dashboard for agencies and teams maintaining many codebases, with daily scans and OSV advisories. The concept of quantifying dependency freshness in years is a novel and practically useful metric.

Target audience: devops, backend devs, engineering managers, agencies
