The Full-Stop Coder

totalCommitsYear = 0. Not 'a slow year' — zero. The heatmap looks like someone was furiously committing in late 2021, hit a wall, and never came back. staleRepoRatio = 1.0 confirms it: every single one of your 38 repos is abandoned.

PhantomJS Necromancer

Your biggest hit (screencap, 180 stars) is built on PhantomJS — a tool so dead its own maintainers put up a tombstone. You peaked by building on software that peaked before you did.

2010 Called, It Wants Its Blog Back

diaspora_public_site: last push November 2010, 48 stars, no license, no tests, no CI. It's been sitting there for 13+ years like a geological stratum of early open-source optimism.

Piwik Who?

rack-piwik has 15 stars and targets Piwik analytics — a product that rebranded to Matomo in 2018. Your middleware gem is documentation for a product name that no longer exists.

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

▸ How the pipeline works
  1. 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.
  2. 02Triage.A small model reads every repo's file tree + README and picks the 20 files per repo that actually reveal how you code.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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.
