Do those two commits count as “increasingly”?

There were more commits, the scanner basically checks the most recent history and stops, just to confirm that the project still allows LLMs. I don't have a laptop or good internet right now to clone the entire repo and grep logs.

Before I refreshed it there were 4 flagged commits, all from September 1st. Since then there was one new LLM-assisted commit so it looks like the rate is decreasing.

That is good to know. I've also just checked the commits, and now I'm unsure if the LLM-related lines actually signified LLM use or just were copied from updated software changelogs. I will remove my above comment and stop with this topic until I learn more.
