GitHub Repo Finder
A production-grade GitHub repository finder that helps LLMs discover best repositories with advanced search, ranking, and token optimization.
README
GitHub Repo Finder
Project Goal
This project aims to build a production-grade GitHub Repo Finder that can be used as a Claude Skill, ChatGPT Skill, MCP Server, Standalone CLI, Python package, and API component. The system is designed to help LLMs discover the best GitHub repositories while minimizing token usage and maximizing reliability.
Features
The GitHub Repo Finder includes the following core features:
- GitHub Search: Advanced searching capabilities using GitHub's API.
- Ranking Engine: A sophisticated ranking algorithm to score repositories based on various metrics.
- Deduplication: Ensures unique repositories are returned, avoiding redundant information.
- Token Optimization: Strategies to minimize token usage for LLM interactions.
- Trending Repositories: Identification of currently trending and viral repositories.
- Filtering: Comprehensive filtering options by language, date, stars, and license.
- Scoring: Maintenance score, repository health score, activity score, popularity score, freshness score, and a final weighted ranking.
Installation
To install the github-repo-finder package, you can use pip:
pip install github-repo-finder
For development, clone the repository and install in editable mode:
git clone Ehsas317/github-repo-finder.git
cd github-repo-finder
pip install -e .
Usage (CLI)
The github-repo-finder can be used directly from the command line:
github-repo-finder "machine learning" --limit 5 --mode markdown
Arguments:
query: The search query (e.g., 'machine learning', 'python web framework').--limit: Number of results to return (default: 10).--mode: Output format. Choices:markdown,detailed,json,compact,llm(default:markdown).--token: Your GitHub Personal Access Token (optional, but recommended to avoid rate limits).--no-cache: Disable caching for the current search.
Output Modes
The tool supports several output modes to cater to different needs:
- Markdown: Human-readable Markdown format.
- Detailed: More verbose Markdown output with additional scoring details.
- JSON: Structured JSON output, ideal for programmatic consumption.
- Compact: A highly compressed JSON format, optimized for minimal token usage.
- LLM: A token-optimized JSON format specifically designed for LLM consumption.
Token Optimization
Token optimization is a critical aspect of this project. The system employs several strategies:
- Caching: Results are cached to avoid repeated API calls and token usage.
- Deduplication: Prevents duplicate repositories from being processed or returned.
- Concise Prompts: Designed to keep LLM prompts as short as possible.
- Minimal Metadata: Only essential data is returned, especially in
compactandllmmodes.
Error Handling
The system is built with robust error handling to ensure reliability:
- GitHub Rate Limits: Implements retry logic with exponential backoff.
- Network Failures: Graceful handling of network issues.
- Invalid Queries: Provides informative error messages for malformed inputs.
- Missing/Archived Repositories: Filters out or handles repositories that are no longer available or relevant.
- Partial Failures: Designed to continue operating even if some data sources fail.
Testing
Comprehensive tests are included to ensure the reliability and correctness of the system. This includes unit tests for individual components and integration tests for end-to-end flows.
Security Review
The project undergoes a security review process to mitigate potential vulnerabilities such as prompt injection, malicious repository names, URL injection, and unsafe parsing of API responses.
