github-explorer

A guided way to investigate and explain a GitHub project, including its code, activity, issues, and community discussion.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to assess a repository's architecture, maintenance, community activity, alternatives, and outside resources.
Why use it?
It helps you look beyond a project's README and form a more informed view of how it works and how healthy it is.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

github-explorer scanned grade A with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 3d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Makes network callslowCapability

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

GitHub Explorer — 项目深度分析

Philosophy: README 只是门面,真正的价值藏在 Issues、Commits 和社区讨论里。

Workflow

[项目名] → [1. 定位 Repo] → [2. 多源采集] → [3. 分析研判] → [4. 结构化输出]

Phase 1: 定位 Repo

  • web_search 搜索 site:github.com <project_name> 确认完整 org/repo
  • search-layer(Deep 模式 + 意图感知)补充获取社区链接和非 GitHub 资源:
    python3 skills/search-layer/scripts/search.py \
      --queries "<project_name> review" "<project_name> 评测 使用体验" \
      --mode deep --intent exploratory --num 5
    
  • web_fetch 抓取 repo 主页获取基础信息(README、Stars、Forks、License、最近更新)

Phase 2: 多源采集(并行)

⚠️ GitHub 页面抓取规则(强制):GitHub repo 页面是 SPA(客户端渲染),web_fetch 只能拿到导航栏壳子,禁止用 web_fetch 抓 github.com 的 repo 页面。一律使用 GitHub API:

  • README: curl -s -H "Authorization: token {PAT}" -H "Accept: application/vnd.github.v3.raw" "https://api.github.com/repos/{owner}/{repo}/readme"
  • Repo 元数据: curl -s -H "Authorization: token {PAT}" "https://api.github.com/repos/{owner}/{repo}"
  • Issues: curl -s -H "Authorization: token {PAT}" "https://api.github.com/repos/{owner}/{repo}/issues?state=all&sort=comments&per_page=10"
  • Commits: curl -s -H "Authorization: token {PAT}" "https://api.github.com/repos/{owner}/{repo}/commits?per_page=10"
  • File tree: curl -s -H "Authorization: token {PAT}" "https://api.github.com/repos/{owner}/{repo}/git/trees/{branch}?recursive=1"

PAT 见 TOOLS.md。

以下来源按需检查,有则采集,无则跳过:

来源 URL 模式 采集内容 建议工具
GitHub Repo github.com/{org}/{repo} README、About、Contributors web_fetch
GitHub Issues github.com/{org}/{repo}/issues?q=sort:comments Top 3-5 高质量 Issue browser
中文社区 微信/知乎/小红书 深度评测、使用经验 content-extract
技术博客 Medium/Dev.to 技术架构分析 web_fetch / content-extract
讨论区 V2EX/Reddit 用户反馈、槽点 search-layer(Deep 模式)
search-layer 调用规范

search-layer v2 支持意图感知评分。github-explorer 场景下的推荐用法:

场景 命令 说明
项目调研(默认) python3 skills/search-layer/scripts/search.py --queries "<project> review" "<project> 评测" --mode deep --intent exploratory --num 5 多查询并行,按权威性排序
最新动态 python3 skills/search-layer/scripts/search.py "<project> latest release" --mode deep --intent status --freshness pw --num 5 优先新鲜度,过滤一周内
竞品对比 python3 skills/search-layer/scripts/search.py --queries "<project> vs <competitor>" "<project> alternatives" --mode deep --intent comparison --num 5 对比意图,关键词+权威双权重
快速查链接 python3 skills/search-layer/scripts/search.py "<project> official docs" --mode fast --intent resource --num 3 精确匹配,最快
社区讨论 python3 skills/search-layer/scripts/search.py "<project> discussion experience" --mode deep --intent exploratory --domain-boost reddit.com,news.ycombinator.com --num 5 加权社区站点

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
