3 Commits to Rule Them All
You pushed exactly 3 times in the past year. Your heatmap is so empty it looks like a hospital EKG flatline — with three lonely blips in February. Even your commits need a wellness check.
Test-Free Zone
gifterm, emojam, cpong — zero tests across the board. You've maintained code for 9+ years without a single automated test. At some point 'it works on my machine' stops being a strategy and starts being a prayer.
CI? Never Heard of Her
Not one of your three scored repos has CI. You're shipping terminal art renderers and ncurses games into the void with no safety net. The 90s called and they want their release process back.
75% Graveyard
staleRepoRatio = 0.75. Three-quarters of your repos haven't been touched in over 2 years. Your GitHub is less a portfolio and more an archaeological dig site.
Niche Lord, Low Numbers
You make genuinely cool stuff — animated GIFs in terminals, text art editors — yet gifterm has 53 stars after a decade. The craft is there; the audience-finding is not.

gifterm
gifterm is a working Python CLI utility for rendering animated GIFs as ASCII/Unicode art in terminals. Single-author project with 53 stars, 9+ years of maintenance, 857KB codebase, and clear documentation. Python (untyped), no tests/CI, but well-scoped tool with documented CLI interface and multi-platform support.

cpong
Retro ncurses Pong game with clean core logic and persistent high-score system. Works as intended with C fundamentals demonstrated, but minimal testing, no type safety, and dated patterns limit broader impact.
cmang /
emojam
Lightweight GTK3-based emoji picker for Linux with ~397 KB codebase, config management, and drag-drop functionality. Minimal production adoption (8 stars, no external PRs visible), but functional personal project with typed-adjacent structure and meaningful README.

▸ How the pipeline works
- 01Scrape.Pull every non-fork repo pushed in the last 90 days, plus your contribution calendar, followers, and language byte counts — straight from GitHub's REST & GraphQL APIs.
- 02Triage.A small model reads every repo's file tree + README and picks the 20 files per repo that actually reveal how you code.
- 03Grade each repo. All repos run in parallel through a fast scoring model that reads the picked files and rates each one independently on Impact, Quality, and Depth — with evidence citations.
- 04Aggregate. A larger reasoning model combines the per-repo scores with server-computed stats (heatmap, commit cadence, language entropy, follower count) to produce the 6-dimension profile score + roasts.
- 05Correct.Deterministic server-side checks enforce anchor-scale floors (e.g. a profile with 2,000+ public commits can't score 30 Consistency) and recompute the final verdict.
~90 seconds per profile, ~$0.25 in compute. Total of ~240 files read across your top-12 repos. One rating per GitHub account per day.
▸ Data sources & caveats
- Heatmap & commit totals: GitHub GraphQL
contributionsCollection— covers the last 365 days, includes private repos when the user has opted in (default). - Language %: byte totals across the top 30 owned non-fork repos.
- Curve: a small upward nudge centered on raw score ≈ 70, capping at 100. Prevents specialists from being unfairly penalised for narrow breadth.
- Anchor corrections: when server-measured signals (e.g. privateWorkLikely, multiRepoVolume, follower count) mandate a minimum category score, the aggregation step enforces it. These are signal-conditional, not identity-based floors.
