Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

LlamaCloud and LlamaParse
To get good RAG performance you will need a good chunking strategy. Simply getting all the text is not good enough and knowing the boundaries of table, list, paragraph, section etc. is helpful.
Great work by llamaindex team. Also feel free to try https://github.com/nlmatics/llmsherpa which takes into account some of the things I mentioned.

Show HN: Open-source Rule-based PDF parser for RAG
I wrote about split points and the need for including section hierarchy in this post: https://ambikasukla.substack.com/p/efficient-rag-with-docume...
All this is automated in the llmsherpa parser https://github.com/nlmatics/llmsherpa which you can use as an API over this library.

Oracle of Zotero: LLM QA of Your Research Library
Nice project!
I've spent quite a lot of time in the medical/scientific literature space. With regards to LLMs, specifically RAG, how the data is chunked is quite important. With that, I have a couple projects that might be beneficial additions.
paperetl (https://github.com/neuml/paperetl) - supports parsing arXiv, PubMed and integrates with GROBID to handle parsing metadata and text from arbitrary papers.
paperai (https://github.com/neuml/paperai) - builds embeddings databases of medical/scientific papers. Supports LLM prompting, semantic workflows and vector search. Built with txtai (https://github.com/neuml/txtai).
While arbitrary chunking/splitting can work, I've found that integrating parsing that has knowledge of medical/scientific paper structure increases the overall accuracy and experience of downstream applications.
