GitHub Repo Analyzer - Repo Intelligence

GitHub repo health scoring with saved-repo bookmarks, snapshot trends over time, and similar-repo suggestions. By Cloud Geeks.

🐙 **Score Any GitHub Repo. Track Changes Over Time. Discover Similar Projects.** GitHub Repo Analyzer turns any GitHub repository page into a one-click intelligence panel — perfect for developers vetting dependencies, engineering leads doing open source due diligence, and recruiters validating candidate work. Now with persistent saved repos, snapshot history, and similar-repo discovery. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ✨ **WHAT IT DOES** Open the extension on any GitHub repo page and click Analyze. In one second you get: 📊 **Composite Health Score (0–100)** • A→F letter grade based on 8 weighted signals • Stars, forks, open issues at a glance • Activity rating (Active / Moderate / Inactive based on recent commits) 🔬 **Issue Detection** Visible warnings for the things that actually matter: • Missing README, license, or description • Too few topics for discoverability • Stale repo (no push in 90+ days) • Excessive open issue count • Archived / unmaintained warning 🌈 **Language Composition** Top 6 languages with percentages, colour-coded as compact chips. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🆕 **WHAT'S NEW IN v1.1.0** ⭐ **Saved Repos** Click Save on any analysed repo to bookmark it. The Saved tab lists every tracked repo with its current grade, last-saved time, and one-click open. Keeps up to 50 repos; oldest evicted on overflow. Trash icon removes individual repos. 📈 **Trends — Snapshot History** Every Save records a snapshot. Once you have two or more, the Trends tab compares them side-by-side: • Score, stars, forks, and open-issue deltas (↑ / ↓ / →) with colour coding (open issues invert — fewer is better) • Unicode sparkline of the last N snapshots per metric • Full snapshot history list (last 12) with timestamps and stats • Per-repo storage capped at 30 snapshots 🔍 **Related Repos** The Related tab uses GitHub's Search API to find similar projects based on the current repo's primary language and top topics. Returns up to 6 repos sorted by stars, with descriptions and last-updated timestamps. Results cached for 24 hours per query to stay under GitHub's unauthenticated rate limit. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🚀 **HOW IT WORKS** 1. **Navigate** to any public GitHub repository (e.g. github.com/anthropics/anthropic-sdk-python) 2. **Click the extension icon** to open the popup 3. **Click "Analyze Repo"** — instant score, issues, and language breakdown 4. **Click "Save"** — the repo is bookmarked and a snapshot is recorded 5. **Switch tabs** — Saved (your bookmarks), Trends (changes since last save), Related (similar projects) ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 💡 **USE CASES** **For Developers Evaluating Dependencies:** • Score any npm/pip/cargo package's GitHub repo before adopting • Save your critical dependencies, re-analyze monthly to catch declining health • Discover better-maintained alternatives via Related **For Engineering Leads Doing Vendor Due Diligence:** • Audit a vendor's open source presence in 2 minutes • Track your dependency portfolio's health over quarters • Spot when a key library starts becoming abandoned **For Recruiters & Hiring Managers:** • Verify a candidate's claimed GitHub projects in seconds • Get a Health grade for the projects on their resume • Compare against similar projects to gauge relative quality **For Open Source Contributors:** • Find active projects in your preferred language via Related • Save projects you contribute to, watch their health metrics improve as you fix issues • Spot stale projects worth reviving — or worth ignoring ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🛡️ **SECURITY POSTURE — OWASP / MITRE ALIGNMENT** The Health Score helps you assess open source supply chain risk (MITRE ATT&CK technique T1195 — Supply Chain Compromise). Indicators surfaced include: • Maintenance status (archived = abandoned) • Recent push date (stale = unpatched) • Issue backlog (unaddressed = potential CVEs) • License presence (unlicensed = legal risk) • Description and topics (poor metadata = low community vetting) ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🏆 **WHY GITHUB REPO ANALYZER?** ✅ **One-click scoring** — No CLI, no signup, no rate-limit wall ✅ **Persistent tracking** — Save repos and watch them change over time ✅ **Sparkline trends** — Visual deltas show stars/score/issues at a glance ✅ **Similar-repo discovery** — Find alternatives without leaving the popup ✅ **Privacy-first** — Saved data stays local; only public GitHub API is called ✅ **Smart caching** — Related-repo results cached 24h to respect API limits ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🔐 **PRIVACY & SECURITY** • ✅ **Public repos only** — All analysis uses publicly available GitHub data • ✅ **No data leaves your device** — Saved repos and snapshots live in your browser's local storage • ✅ **No analytics, no tracking** — We don't know what repos you analyze • ✅ **Read-only access** — The extension never modifies any repository • ✅ **Minimal permissions** — Only github.com and api.github.com host access Read the full privacy policy: https://extensions.cchk.info/github-repo-analyzer/privacy ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🆘 **SUPPORT** • 📧 Email: [email protected] • 🌐 Website: https://extensions.cchk.info/github-repo-analyzer • 🔒 Privacy: https://extensions.cchk.info/github-repo-analyzer/privacy ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🚀 **GET STARTED** Click "Add to Chrome", open any public GitHub repository, click the icon, click Analyze.
