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-repo-signals scanned grade A with 0 findings 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 9d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 7 executable files (scripts/__init__.py, scripts/gh_common.py, scripts/gh_contributors.py, …), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 222 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

GitHub Repository Signals

Extract high-intent leads from one or more GitHub repositories by analyzing every type of user interaction. This skill uses only free GitHub API data — no enrichment credits are spent.

When to Use

  • User wants to find leads from open-source GitHub repositories
  • User wants to identify people who interact with competitor or category repos
  • User wants cross-repo interaction analysis to find high-intent prospects
  • User asks for GitHub-based lead generation without paid enrichment
  • User says their ICP, target audience, or buyers are developers, engineers, or technical people who are active on GitHub
  • User describes prospects who use open-source tools, contribute to open source, or build with specific technologies — and those technologies have public GitHub repos
  • User wants to find leads in a technical space (e.g., "real-time communication", "AI agents", "infrastructure") where the community congregates around GitHub repositories

Note: If the user describes their ICP as GitHub-active but hasn't identified specific repositories yet, this skill still applies. In that case, ask the user which repositories their ICP is likely to interact with, or help them identify relevant repos based on the technology/space they describe.

Prerequisites

  • gh CLI authenticated (gh auth status to verify)
  • Python 3.9+ with PyYAML installed
  • Working directory: the project root containing this skill

Inputs to Collect from User

Before running, ask the user for:

  1. Repositories (required): One or more GitHub repository URLs or owner/repo strings
  2. User limit (required): How many top users to include in the output. Explain that more users = longer runtime due to GitHub profile fetching (~5,000 profiles/hour). Suggest 500 as a good starting point for testing.

Execution Steps

Step 1: Verify Environment

gh auth status

Step 2: Run the Tool

python3 ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/gh_repo_signals.py \
    --repos "owner1/repo1,owner2/repo2" \
    --limit <USER_LIMIT> \
    --output ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/../.tmp/repo_signals.csv

Changes

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.
