Most Referenced RFCs

RFCs cited by the most drafts in the corpus

# RFC Cited By

Top 20 Most-Cited RFCs

Foundational standards the AI/agent ecosystem builds upon

{% for rfc in influence.top_cited_rfcs %} {% endfor %}
# RFC Name Cited By
{{ loop.index }} RFC {{ rfc.rfc_id }} {{ rfc.name }} {{ rfc.count }} drafts

Top 20 Most-Citing Drafts

Drafts with the highest outgoing reference count

{% for d in influence.top_citing_drafts %} {% endfor %}
# Draft Category Refs
{{ loop.index }} {{ d.title[:60] }}{% if d.title|length > 60 %}...{% endif %} {{ d.category }} {{ d.count }}

Influence Score (PageRank-style)

Drafts ranked by weighted sum of how often their cited RFCs are themselves cited — higher score means citing more foundational standards

{% for d in influence.top_pagerank %} {% endfor %}
# Draft Category Out-Degree Influence Score
{{ loop.index }} {{ d.title[:60] }}{% if d.title|length > 60 %}...{% endif %} {{ d.category }} {{ d.out_degree }} {{ d.score }}

BCP Co-Citation Heatmap

How often pairs of BCPs are cited together in the same draft. Darker = more co-citations.
