google-cloud-python vs. Google
Per-engineer ETV for google-cloud-python against Google as a whole. Both lines are 90-day rolling averages scaled to a 30-day month, so they share one axis and can be read against each other at any point. Pick a window to zoom the chart to it.
Performance Composition
Each month's output split by type of work: Features (new value), Maintenance (sustaining systems), Tests, Docs, and Fixes (rework). The yellow line is output per engineer, so when it rises each engineer is delivering more, whatever the team size did. Unit: Engineering Throughput Value (ETV).
Engineering capacity
Effective engineers behind google-cloud-python, against its pre-AI baseline. Each subject has its own: google-cloud-python's is 1.28 ETV / dev / mo, its first reading in Q1 2025. Per-engineer ETV divided by that gives a capacity multiple, and that multiple applied to the engineers active in the trailing 90 days turns it into engineer-equivalents. The line is the real headcount, so the gap between line and area is what the leverage is worth. Because each baseline is its own, every subject opens at 1.0x on its first day: multiples measure improvement and are not comparable between subjects.
Knowledge concentration
How dependent is this repo on a small number of engineers? Higher top-1 share = higher key-person risk.

- 23.4ETVchore: update librarian & regenerate (#17705) Updates librarian version to v0.26.0. This includes a gapic-generator update to v1.36.0 resulting in the attached changes, which can be found in the [second commit](https://github.com/googleapis/google-cloud-python/commit/e20a32e72ffece0ec7e9d3e358205230303800f0). Changes to the bigquery and datastore postprocessing scripts were necessary due to the removal of mypy.ini. These can be found in the [first commit](https://github.com/googleapis/google-cloud-python/commit/8f7111a2c498965aec62c59c8007b90ee6252764).
