At a glance

Finds GitHub projects mentioned in articles or screenshots and stars them, tracks updates to your starred repos, and builds an HTML dashboard to browse them.

  • Works in 10 steps: 对话模块:自动发现并 Star → 更新追踪 → 智能分析 → …
  • Starring every GitHub project mentioned in an article or screenshot
  • SKILL.md covers 简介, 何时使用, 模块说明 and 核心功能, plus 7 more sections
  • Runs Python and JavaScript scripts from its folder; calls gh, pip and python; needs OPENAI_API_KEY

What it does

The skill has two parts. In conversation, it pulls GitHub repository references out of an article, a URL, a screenshot or its comment section, turns partial or vague clues into a single owner and repo using GitHub search and the repository lists under an owner, and stars the matches on your account.

The script part runs from the command line or on a schedule. It syncs your starred repositories, watches them for new versions, releases and notable commits, writes structured update reports and generates an HTML dashboard for browsing and filtering. The scripts are main.py, star_tracker.py, dashboard_generator.py, generate_categories.py and quick_export.py, with a config file, category definitions and an example .env alongside. The SKILL.md itself is written in Chinese.

When your agent uses it

  • Starring every GitHub project mentioned in an article or screenshot
  • Checking which starred repositories have new releases or notable commits
  • Browsing and filtering a large starred list in a visual dashboard
  • Monitoring release activity of libraries your project depends on

Example prompts

  • “Analyze this article and star the GitHub projects it mentions.”
  • “Check my starred repositories for new releases since last week.”
  • “Generate the HTML dashboard of my starred projects.”
  • “Find the GitHub repo shown in this screenshot and star it.”

Requirements

  • Python with the packages listed in `assets/requirements.txt`
  • A GitHub account that the agent can star repositories on

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit c077fcc. 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 5 files in scripts/ (Python and JavaScript), which the agent can run.

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • gh
    • pip
    • python
    • brew
    • apt-get

    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):

    • github.com

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

  • Credentials

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

    • OPENAI_API_KEY

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

Context cost

GitHub Star Manager loads about 2k tokens when it runs, and up to ~2.9k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 20 tokens; SKILL.md has 562 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~20
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~2k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~2.9k

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.

GitHub Star 管理器 (GitHub Star Manager)

简介

专注于 GitHub Star 项目的更新追踪与同步工具。自动检测您 Star 的项目是否有新版本、新 Release、重要 Commit 变化,并生成结构化的更新报告。

核心特色: 提供 HTML 可视化 Dashboard,快速浏览所有 Star 项目。

何时使用

本技能在以下场景下触发:

  • 用户需要从内容中自动发现并 Star GitHub 项目
  • 用户需要追踪 GitHub Star 项目的更新
  • 用户需要监控依赖库的版本发布
  • 用户需要查看项目活跃度和健康度
  • 用户需要管理大量 starred 仓库
  • 用户需要快速浏览和筛选 Star 项目
  • 用户需要生成项目的可视化报告

模块说明

本技能包含两个模块:

模块触发方式功能
对话模块对话触发从内容提取项目并 Star
脚本模块命令行/定时任务同步、Dashboard、追踪、批量管理

核心功能

1. 对话模块:自动发现并 Star

从各种内容来源中自动提取 GitHub 仓库引用,并在你的 GitHub 账户上 star 它们。

支持的触发方式:

  • "分析这篇文章并 star 里面的项目"
  • "从这张截图里找 GitHub 项目并 star"
  • "Star [内容] 中提到的所有 GitHub 项目"

工作流程:

  1. 内容提取与上下文分析

    • 文字/URL:使用 WebFetch 获取文章内容,解析 GitHub URL
    • 截图/图片:使用图片分析 MCP 提取文字并识别项目引用
    • 评论区/回复也是提取源:作者在评论区亲授的 owner/repo 全称是最高优先级证据,优先于一切启发式消歧
  2. 仓库发现与智能匹配

    • 模糊口述线索推理(内容里没有** GitHub URL、只有用户口述的零散线索时)**:当用户以自然语言描述项目(如"ascll simulation art console"、"8 月 24 号左右更新的"、"ID 可能含 skent"),GitHub 站内搜索通常 0 命中(关键词含 OCR 噪声、用户名被拼写截断、无完整 owner/repo)。走三步推理锚定唯一候选:
      1. 拆解线索为可枚举字段:① 主题关键词(项目做什么——本例"ascii simulation art console",可拆 ascii + simulation + art + console);② 创建/更新时间窗口("8 月 24 号左右"→ created:2026-08-20..2026-08-28);③ 用户名/owner 片段("skent"→ 搜索 skent 找到候选 owner skent、Skentir、skent259 等);④ 其它旁证("近期更新"、"MIT 协议"等可加 --sort=updated、license filter)
      2. GitHub Search API 多条件缩范围:用 gh api search/repositories?q=<关键词>+created:<date-range> 拿到 ≤30 条候选。若零命中放宽日期±3 天再试;若仍零命中改用关键词子集(先只搜 simulation + art)让噪声筛过滤掉,再逐步加严。单字段多关键词 OR / 多字段 AND 的组合顺序决定召回:先粗后细(先 OR 让候选宽一点,再用 AND 紧),避免一开始就用 ascii+simulation+art+console 拼长串触发 0 命中
      3. 候选消歧到唯一:在候选列表上跑与"同名候选消歧"相同的证据链——亲授全称 > 语义锚定 > 衍生排除 > 创建时间匹配 > Star 数量级(仅参考)。本场景无亲授/截图,所以重点是:① created_at 落在用户口述的时间窗口内(误差 ±3 天);② description 含线索关键词("ascii"/"simulation"/"art"/"console"任一);③ owner 名含候选用户片段(Skent*、skent* 任一前缀)。三条都满足即可定为唯一,置信度反映给用户
      • 使用约束:① 不要把"用户名片段"当成"完整 owner"——它只用于 owner 候选枚举,不参与最终判定;② 时间窗口比关键词更重要——近期项目关键词噪声大,时间是更稳的锚;③ 候选命中但 created_at 偏离用户口述超 ±5 天,要么放宽/收严窗口与用户核对,要么放弃。实测反例:直接搜 ascii simulation art console 在 8 月 24 号前后日期范围内 GitHub 站内搜索 0 命中,但按"主题 + 时间窗口 + 用户片段"三段拆解后 API 检索唯一命中——这就是本规则的必要性证据
    • 直接匹配:内容中找到的完整 GitHub URL
    • 半截 URL 补全:owner 确定而 name 截断(如 mcncarl/jianyi…)时,列该 owner 名下仓库(gh api users/OWNER/repos),按名称前缀 + description 语义匹配补全(实测:jianyi…→jianying-headless,yichen…→yichen-skills)
    • owner 拼写修正:截图直读的 owner 404 时先怀疑 OCR 误读而非仓库不存在——按 repo 名搜索锁定真身,用星数量级与截图侧栏数字互证(实测:截图误读 webadderalorg→真身 webadderallorg/Recordly,30.9k⭐ 与侧栏 20.1k 同量级确认)
    • 社交账号名 ↔ GitHub owner 互证:博主昵称与 owner 名常有派生关系,可作中优先级佐证(实测:抖音"耳朵"→erduo1998-cell、"姚老师"→yaojingang、"文森特"→Vincentwei1021),但不单独定论
    • 改名仓库识别:内容中的旧名 404 时,查 gh api repos/旧名 是否返回 301/新 full_name——GitHub API 对改名仓库自动重定向,返回的 full_name 即新名;若新仓库已在库则视为同一项目跳过(实测:erduo-hyperframes-broll → erduo-broll-loop-engineering)
    • 按名称搜索:当只有项目名时使用 gh search repos
    • 同名候选消歧(社交内容常只给项目名,同名候选多为 fork/搬运/衍生项目)。证据优先级:来源亲授全称 > 语义比对 > 排除规则 > 版本轨迹;Star 数量级只是参考信号,永不单独定论——实测反例:taste-skill 同名的 Leonxlnx 版 8.9 万⭐比目标 senlindesign 版(366⭐)高两个数量级,靠语义("Reverse-engineer any website's design taste" 与帖内 tastelab 页面吻合)+ 作者评论区亲授全称才锁定 senlindesign 版:
      1. 来源亲授证据:作者/评论区给出的 owner/repo 全称直接采信,跳过其余消歧
      2. 语义锚定:不要只比对项目名文字——把内容展示的功能场景与各候选仓库 description 逐一比对(如"单色印刷审美"帖 ↔ "One-ink editorial print";"英文内嵌字幕视频截图" ↔ "保留视频内嵌字幕,精确取帧生成长图";"逆向网站设计品味" ↔ "reverse-engineer any website's design taste")
      3. 衍生仓库排除:name 带 -lite/-editor/-skills 等后缀、description 自述"基于上游/fork 适配/补原仓库不做的半边"的直接排除
      4. 版本交叉核对:内容提到版本号(如"升级到 2.0")时,查候选仓库 releases/tags,原仓库应存在对应版本轨迹
      5. Star 数量级(仅参考):多数情况下原仓库比 fork/搬运高 1–2 个数量级(mono-color-skill 3250 vs 0~3;native-subtitle-quote-image 795 vs 5/7),但同名高星同类项目随时可能推翻它——高星候选与亲授/语义证据冲突时,以后者为准
    • 候选仍无法唯一确定时:不凭猜测 star,列出候选与判断依据请用户确认
    • 上下文相关性验证:检查 topics、description、技术栈是否匹配
  3. 检查是否已 Star

    bash
    gh api user/starred/owner/repo 2>/dev/null

    HTTP 204 = 已 star,404 = 未 star。

  4. Star 仓库 gh repo star 子命令在部分 gh 版本不存在(如 2.83.0 报 unknown command),统一用 API,幂等且跨版本可用:

    bash
    gh api -X PUT user/starred/owner/repo

    成功后用第 3 步的 GET 回读,204 才算完成,不要以 PUT 退出码为准。 批量任务(一次内容提取出多个仓库)时循环执行"查重→star→回读",单个仓库失败不阻断其余,最后按第 5 步汇总成功/跳过/失败。

  5. 生成报告

    • 新 star 的仓库列表
    • 已 star 的仓库(跳过)
    • 需人工确认的仓库

2. 更新追踪
  • 版本检测:检测项目的新 Release 和 Tag
  • 活跃度监控:追踪最近的 Commit 活跃度
  • 变更摘要:使用 AI 总结版本变更内容
4. 智能分析
  • 项目摘要:自动生成项目核心功能说明

Questions about GitHub Star Manager

What does GitHub Star Manager do?

Finds GitHub projects mentioned in articles or screenshots and stars them, tracks updates to your starred repos, and builds an HTML dashboard to browse them. The skill has two parts. In conversation, it pulls GitHub repository references out of an article, a URL, a screenshot or its comment section, turns partial or vague clues into a single owner and repo using GitHub search and the repository lists under an owner, and stars the matches on your account.

When should I use GitHub Star Manager?

GitHub Star Manager fits situations like: starring every GitHub project mentioned in an article or screenshot; checking which starred repositories have new releases or notable commits; browsing and filtering a large starred list in a visual dashboard; monitoring release activity of libraries your project depends on.

How do I install GitHub Star Manager in Claude Code?

Run `npx skills add cat-xierluo/legal-skills --skill github-star-manager -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (skills/github-star-manager in cat-xierluo/legal-skills) into .claude/skills/github-star-manager in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.

How do I install GitHub Star Manager in Codex?

Run `npx skills add cat-xierluo/legal-skills --skill github-star-manager -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (skills/github-star-manager in cat-xierluo/legal-skills) into .agents/skills/github-star-manager in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.

Can I use GitHub Star Manager in Cursor, Gemini CLI or GitHub Copilot?

Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add cat-xierluo/legal-skills --skill github-star-manager -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/github-star-manager, .gemini/skills/github-star-manager, .github/skills/github-star-manager and .opencode/skills/github-star-manager in your project.

What does GitHub Star Manager need to run?

Going by SKILL.md and its folder, GitHub Star Manager needs Python and JavaScript for the scripts in its folder, the command-line tools its instructions call (gh, pip, python, brew and apt-get) and credentials named OPENAI_API_KEY. Our summary lists: Python with the packages listed in `assets/requirements.txt`; A GitHub account that the agent can star repositories on.

Does GitHub Star Manager access the network?

SKILL.md names 1 domain. As links in the text: github.com. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.

Is GitHub Star Manager safe to install?

Our automated static check of SKILL.md found notes only (runs commands with sudo; mentions a .env file), nothing it rates as a warning. It is not a guarantee. The check reads SKILL.md only: the scripts in the folder are not scanned, so read them before running anything.

What licence does GitHub Star Manager use?

GitHub Star Manager is published under the MIT licence (declared in SKILL.md). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.

How many tokens does GitHub Star Manager use?
