What it does

When installed, the agent can turn a request about one GitHub repository into a styled HTML dashboard showing key counts (stars, forks, contributors, open issues, pull requests), top contributors, and recent activity. It is told to pull public data from GitHub's API or CLI, tidy it into a fixed data shape, and produce either a standalone index.html page or a set of files (template, data, artifact and provenance records) for a refreshable version. It also tells the agent to note where any numbers are estimated or synthetic.

Great for

  • Maintainers who want a quick health or growth overview of their open-source project
  • Developer advocates or community managers preparing a repository status page
  • Anyone who needs a clean, read-only visual report of a single public GitHub repo

Skip it if

  • Comparing several repositories at once, since the skill is explicitly scoped to one repo per dashboard (the skill itself says so)
  • Precise historical star or fork growth, because GitHub's REST API does not expose complete history and the skill allows estimated or synthetic chart data
  • Private repositories or anything needing authenticated private metadata, since the skill says not to store tokens or private metadata and is built around public data

Try asking

  • “Build a GitHub dashboard for nexu-io/open-design showing stars, forks, contributors, issues, PRs and recent activity”
  • “Make a repository health page for owner/repo with top contributors”
  • “Create a refreshable open-source growth report for my project that I can update later”

  3. 3

    Ask for the task

    No special command needed — the agent reads the skill's description and loads it when your request matches. Try one of the prompts above.

Get better results

  • Give the full owner/repo name so the agent does not need to ask a follow-up question
  • Ask for a live artifact if you want to refresh the data later; otherwise a static index.html is produced
  • Check provenance notes before sharing, especially any growth figures marked as estimated
