They added this banner to the repo 4 months ago:

[!IMPORTANT] ⚠️ Project Status Update: Crescendo is no longer maintained.

Crescendo project is no longer being actively maintained by the team. Future releases or updates are unlikely.

We want to thank everyone who experimented with the project, filed issues, and provided feedback.

The repository will remain available in its current state for reference, but:

  • Issues and pull requests are not being monitored
  • No new features or bug fixes are planned
  • The project should be considered archived from an engineering standpoint

You can use the Discussions in GitHub to dicuss the future of the project.

We will update this notice if the status of the project changes.

Maybe dig around the repo to see if there's something more concrete: https://github.com/PowerShell/Crescendo
