simonw's githubworth estimate
$8,722
$3,610 to $28,331
27 of 994 public repos, 17.2 million tokens of code plus their git history. Counted October 21, 2026.
What this code would list for if it were private. Public code doesn't sell.
Only the 30 most-starred repos are counted, so the full figure is higher.

Where to sell code
Pangea
Pangea licenses private repos to AI labs. If that private code is yours and was never public, it may qualify.
Code written for an employer or a client doesn't qualify.
Code is counted at $100 per million tokens and git history at $40, the rates in pre.dev's pricing script, checked October 20, 2026. History is estimated from the commit count, and the range is where 8 in 10 repos landed when we checked the estimate against real counts. 90 large files were counted without the check for minified code, so the figure may run a little high.
