What it does

GitHub Star Weekly is an agent skill from killvxk/gitweekly. Generate or update weekly markdown reports from a GitHub username's starred repositories and optional fork events. Use when the user asks to check GitHub stars, GitHub starred repos, starred weekly reports, 每周 star 周报, GitHub star/fork weekly, or wants to input a GitHub username and append only the weekly/ report without touching README/source files.

Its SKILL.md is about 960 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 4 other files, including scripts (for example `agents/openai.yaml` and `scripts/github_star_weekly.py`).

It sits in Development. It works with GitHub.

When your agent uses it

  • The user asks to check GitHub stars
  • GitHub starred repos
  • Starred weekly reports
  • GitHub star/fork weekly

Example prompts

  • “/github-star-weekly”

Requirements

  • Python 3
  • A credential in GITHUB_TOKEN

Workflow steps

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

  1. Inspect git status --short before editing. Do not overwrite unrelated user changes.
  2. Run the script with the requested GitHub username.
  3. Verify only weekly/weekly-_.md changed unless the user asked for cache updates.
  4. Review generated descriptions. If a row is English, vague, or too long, refine it manually using the existing auto-weekly description…
  5. Run a quick validation
  6. Do not commit or push unless the user explicitly asks.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 668dcfb. 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
    • git

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

  • Network

    Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:

    • 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:

    • GITHUB_TOKEN

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

Context cost

GitHub Star Weekly loads about 956 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 93 tokens; SKILL.md has 348 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~93
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~956

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.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 348 words (~956 tokens).

“Generate a weekly report section from a GitHub user's starred repositories. The GitHub username is an input, not a hardcoded value: pass it as a positional argument, pass --username, type it at the prompt, or pipe it on stdin. Optionally…”
