What it does

GitHub Project Contributor Finder API Skill is an agent skill from browser-act/skills. This skill helps users extract GitHub repository project details and contributor contact information using keywords, stars, and update dates. Agent should proactively apply this skill when users express needs like search for GitHub projects by keywords, find top open-source contributors in specific domains, extract developer contacts from GitHub repositories, discover trending repositories with high stars, gather contributor profiles and social links for tech recruiting, retrieve GitHub project descriptions and…

Its SKILL.md is about 1.9k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including scripts (for example `scripts/github_project_contributor_finder_api.py`).

It sits in Business, Finance & HR, covering Recruiting and HR and Lead generation. It works with GitHub and X (Twitter). The repository describes itself as: Browser automation CLI built for AI agents. Break through anti-bot walls, hand off to humans across platforms when stuck. Parallel multi-task execution, independent multi-session… The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Recruiting and HR
  • Tasks that involve Lead generation

Example prompts

  • “/github-project-contributor-finder-api-skill”

Requirements

  • Python 3
  • A credential in BROWSERACT_API_KEY

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. No Hallucinations: Pre-set workflows avoid AI generative hallucinations, ensuring stable and precise data extraction.
  2. No Captcha Issues: No need to handle reCAPTCHA or other verification challenges.
  3. No IP Restrictions: No need to handle regional IP restrictions or geofencing.
  4. Faster Execution: Tasks execute faster compared to pure AI-driven browser automation solutions.
  5. Cost-Effective: Significantly lowers data acquisition costs compared to high-token-consuming AI solutions.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 11c057b. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Ships 1 file in scripts/ (Python), which the agent can run.

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • python

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • browseract.com

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:

    • BROWSERACT_API_KEY

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

GitHub Project Contributor Finder API Skill loads about 1.9k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 209 tokens; SKILL.md has 807 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~209
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.9k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

description
This skill helps users extract GitHub repository project details and contributor contact information using keywords, stars, and update dates. Agent should proactively apply this skill when users express needs like search for GitHub projects by keywords, find top open-source contributors in specific domains, extract developer contacts from GitHub repositories, discover trending repositories with high stars, gather contributor profiles and social links for tech recruiting, retrieve GitHub project descriptions and metrics, build developer communities by finding active contributors, search for repositories updated recently, collect personal website and Twitter links of developers, generate targeted leads for developer tools, or track active open-source contributors for collaboration.

GitHub Project & Contributor Finder API Skill

📖 Brief

This skill utilizes BrowserAct's GitHub Project & Contributor Finder API to extract project details and contributor contact information from GitHub. Simply provide keywords, minimum stars, and an update date filter — BrowserAct traverses the search results, extracts repository metrics, and fetches detailed contributor profiles, returning it all directly via API without building crawler scripts or dealing with rate limits.

✨ Features

  1. No Hallucinations: Pre-set workflows avoid AI generative hallucinations, ensuring stable and precise data extraction.
  2. No Captcha Issues: No need to handle reCAPTCHA or other verification challenges.
  3. No IP Restrictions: No need to handle regional IP restrictions or geofencing.
  4. Faster Execution: Tasks execute faster compared to pure AI-driven browser automation solutions.
  5. Cost-Effective: Significantly lowers data acquisition costs compared to high-token-consuming AI solutions.

🔑 API Key Setup

Before running, check the BROWSERACT_API_KEY environment variable. If not set, do not take other measures; ask and wait for the user to provide it. Agent must inform the user:

"Since you haven't configured the BrowserAct API Key yet, please visit the BrowserAct Console to get your Key."

🛠️ Input Parameters

The agent should flexibly configure the following parameters based on user requirements:

  1. KeyWords

    • Type: string
    • Description: Keywords for searching repositories.
    • Example: browser automation, react framework, machine learning
    • Default: browser automation

  2. stars

    • Type: number
    • Description: Minimum number of stars the repository should have.
    • Example: 100, 1000
    • Default: 100

  3. updated

    • Type: string
    • Description: Filter repositories by the date they were last updated (format: YYYY-MM-DD).
    • Example: 2026-01-01, 2025-06-01
    • Default: 2026-01-01

  4. Page_Turns

    • Type: number
    • Description: Number of search result pages to paginate through. For example, if there are 39 pages and you want the first 2, input 2.
    • Example: 1, 2
    • Default: 1

  5. date_limit_per_page

    • Type: number
    • Description: Number of data items to extract per page in the search results list.
    • Example: 5, 10
    • Default: 5

🚀 Invocation Method

Agent should execute the following command to invoke the skill:

bash
# Example invocation (all parameters)
python -u ./scripts/github_project_contributor_finder_api.py "browser automation" 100 "2026-01-01" 1 5

# Minimal invocation (only keywords, others use defaults)
python -u ./scripts/github_project_contributor_finder_api.py "react framework"
⏳ Execution Monitoring

Since this task involves automated browser operations, it may take several minutes. The script outputs timestamped status logs continuously (e.g., [14:30:05] Task Status: running). Agent guidelines:

  • Monitor the terminal output while waiting.
  • As long as new status logs appear, the task is running normally; do not misjudge it as frozen.
  • Only consider triggering retry if the status remains unchanged for a long time or output stops without a final result.

📊 Data Output

Upon successful execution, the script parses and prints the structured results from the API response.

Project Fields:

  • repository_name: The name of the GitHub repository.
  • repository_url: The URL link to the repository.
  • repository_owner_name: The owner/creator of the repository.
  • repository_description: A brief description of the repository.
  • star_count: The number of stars the repository has received.

Contributor Fields:

  • user_name: The GitHub username of the contributor.
  • profile_url: The URL link to the contributor's profile.
  • bio: The bio or short description of the contributor.
  • repositories_summary: A summary of other repositories owned by the contributor.
  • personal_website: The contributor's personal website link.
  • twitter: The contributor's Twitter handle.

⚠️ Error Handling & Retry

If an error occurs during script execution (e.g., network fluctuations or task failure), the Agent should follow this logic:

  1. Check Output Content:

    • If the output contains "Invalid authorization", it means the API Key is invalid or expired. Do not retry; guide the user to re-check and provide the correct API Key.
    • If the output contains "concurrent" or "too many running tasks", it means the concurrent task limit has been reached. Do not retry; guide the user to upgrade their plan. Agent must inform the user:

      "The current task cannot be executed because your BrowserAct account has reached the concurrent task limit. Please visit the BrowserAct Plan Upgrade Page to upgrade your plan."

    • If the output does not contain the above error keywords but the task failed (e.g., output starts with Error: or returns empty results), the Agent should automatically re-execute the script once.

  2. Retry Limit:

    • Automatic retry is limited to one time. If the second attempt fails, stop retrying and report the specific error to the user.

🌟 Typical Use Cases

  1. Tech Recruiting: Gather contributor profiles and social links from popular repositories to build candidate pipelines.
  2. Open-Source Discovery: Search for trending repositories by keywords and star count to find valuable projects.
  3. Developer Outreach: Collect personal websites and Twitter handles of active contributors for developer tool marketing.
  4. Community Building: Identify and connect with active open-source contributors in specific domains.
  5. Competitor Analysis: Monitor which developers contribute to competing projects.
  6. Partnership Scouting: Find repository owners for potential collaboration or sponsorship.
  7. Market Research: Analyze repository metrics and descriptions to understand technology trends.
  8. Lead Generation: Generate targeted leads for developer tools by finding projects with relevant tech stacks.
  9. Academic Research: Discover recently updated repositories in specific research areas.
  10. Talent Mapping: Build a database of skilled developers based on their GitHub contributions and profiles.
