This is amazing! One thing that allows me to do, which I wasn't before, is to do a search for the repos that use some of my open source.
While there were some tools for this, they fail sort for older projects where using a library meant copy/paste it into your project, which is not reported in the CDN stats, npm installs or github "uses".
Now I can run a search with a bit of code that is only present in my library and find reliably those who copy/pasted it. While I publish my code under the MIT, this would also be very useful for those publishing under the GPL to detect bad actors.
