catalog-babysitter-users

Catalog Babysitter Users

Produce a curated, deduplicated catalog of public GitHub repositories that import defineTask from @a5c-ai/babysitter-sdk, stored at docs/repo-with-babysitter-processes.md. Refresh the catalog in-place when re-run; do not delete entries that no longer match (mark them as "last seen" instead, so the catalog is additive over time).

When to use

• User asks "who's using babysitter in the wild?", "find repos with babysitter processes", "refresh the catalog", "update the babysitter-users list".
• After a release, to see whether new adopters have appeared.
• Before a retrospective across external runs (see the sibling skill retrospect-external-babysitter-run).

Prerequisites

• gh CLI installed and authenticated (gh auth status must be OK). GitHub code search requires an authenticated user.
• Writable working tree (the catalog file gets updated).

Exact search

Search the literal import statement across public code:

gh search code \
  "import { defineTask } from '@a5c-ai/babysitter-sdk'" \
  --json repository,path,url \
  --limit 200

Also run the double-quote variant to catch formatter differences:

gh search code \
  'import { defineTask } from "@a5c-ai/babysitter-sdk"' \
  --json repository,path,url \
  --limit 200

Union the two result sets. If the CLI caps out at 100 per query, paginate by adding language:javascript, language:typescript, and extension:js, extension:ts qualifiers to split the search space.

Filtering rules (apply in order)

1. Drop any hit whose repository.name (case-insensitive) equals babysitter. This excludes forks of this monorepo.
2. Drop any hit whose repository.nameWithOwner starts with a5c-ai/ -- those are first-party and already known.
3. Drop archived repos (repository.isArchived === true). Enrich via gh api repos/<owner>/<name> if the search JSON lacks it.
4. Dedupe by repository.nameWithOwner -- one entry per repo, even if multiple files match. Keep the count of matching files as evidence.
5. Drop private-visible-as-public fluke hits (repository.visibility !== 'public').
