Is encode/httpx the successor of psf/requests?
requests-httpx · status observed
Data verified at: 2026-09-11T16:53:24Z (UTC)
Conclusion status
No confirmed conclusion exists for this pair. The evidence below is presented for
transparency; a relationship conclusion requires a human review that has not happened,
or a previous decision no longer matches the current evidence.
No directional succession or fork claim was found; the current evidence does not establish the researched relationship.
Seed context: Negative-leaning research question: same domain (Python HTTP clients) does not imply successor. No succession claim is expected; the pipeline must not confirm a relation without evidence.
Observed repository facts
As of the last verified collection. These are facts about the snapshots, not
activity verdicts — a low number is not a claim that a project is inactive.
Package registry facts
Versions & deployment facts
Official release and package declarations, compared independently of the relationship verdict.
These are not installation tests or a migration guarantee. Missing declarations mean unknown.

Timeline
“Event time” is an upstream timestamp when the source provides one; “first observed” is when
this project saw it. They are deliberately separate columns.
