5 commits in 365 days
The heatmap looks like a connect-the-dots puzzle where someone gave up after the third dot. 5 public commits this year — that's one commit per 73 days. Even a stopped clock contributes more often.
85% graveyard ratio
34 of your 40 repos haven't been touched in over 2 years. You've built an archaeological dig site, not a portfolio. At least label them 'artifacts' so visitors know what era they're visiting.
CoffeeScript in 2024
Your discogs library — one of your most-starred projects — is written in CoffeeScript and last touched in 2014. That's not vintage, that's a fossil. The npm ecosystem has since evolved approximately 47 major JavaScript paradigms.
Self-sabotaging README
greg's README literally says it's 'probably chock-full of bugs' and was written 'in a fit of insomnia.' 127 people starred it anyway. That's either a testament to the internet's taste or a damning indictment of it.
The one good project paradox
testy has README, tests, CI, strict TypeScript, and multi-OS matrix testing — it's a genuinely well-engineered tool. The other two scored repos have zero CI between them. It's like finding a sports car in a junkyard.

Zoral
Shadows one worker for a week, then takes over their job with zero extra setup. Behaves exactly like the original.

testy
Production-ready doctest tool for Node.js with rigorous CI/type checking. Comprehensive test suite, clean architecture, typed code (tsconfig with strict:true), and automated multi-version testing across Node 18-24 and OS platforms.

discogs
Lightweight Discogs API wrapper in CoffeeScript with tests and basic docs, inactive since 2014. Non-trivial but historically-scoped project showing solid initial craftsmanship.
linus /
greg
Personal hobby module for generating memorable ID sentences. Typed-free, untyped JavaScript with README but no tests, CI, or license file. Modest scope (~136 KB), last activity in 2021.

Tier thresholds
▸ 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.
