README (SKILL.md)
GitHub Stars Tracker 🌟
监控 GitHub 仓库的 stars、forks、watchers 变化，追踪你关心的项目动态。
功能
- 📊 追踪指定仓库的 star 数量变化
- 📈 记录历史数据，生成变化趋势
- 🔔 当 star 快速增长时通知
- 📝 支持多仓库同时监控
使用方法
添加要追踪的仓库
# 使用 owner/repo 格式
python3 scripts/tracker.py add owner/repo
查看仓库状态
python3 scripts/tracker.py status owner/repo
列出所有追踪的仓库
python3 scripts/tracker.py list
检查变化
python3 scripts/tracker.py check
配置
首次使用需要设置 GitHub Token（避免 API 限流）：
export GITHUB_TOKEN=your_token_here
获取 Token：https://github.com/settings/tokens
示例
# 追踪一些热门 AI 项目
python3 scripts/tracker.py add openai/openai-python
python3 scripts/tracker.py add anthropics/claude-code
python3 scripts/tracker.py add
# 查看状态
python3 scripts/tracker.py status openai/openai-python
Usage Guidance
This skill appears to implement a simple GitHub stars/forks tracker and only needs a GitHub personal access token (GITHUB_TOKEN) and Python to run. However: 1) The package/registry metadata is inconsistent with _meta.json — verify which requirements are authoritative. 2) The tracker script writes a JSON file to your home directory (~/.github-stars-tracker.json); check its contents for any sensitive data. 3) The code contains a bug: cmd_status calls fetch_repo (undefined) instead of fetch_repo_info — the 'status' command may fail. 4) There are no hidden endpoints or obfuscated code — network traffic goes to api.github.com with the provided token. Before installing: review the script locally (or run it in an isolated environment), consider creating a PAT with minimal scopes (no repo/write if not needed), and correct the fetch_repo → fetch_repo_info call if you need the status command to work. If you want higher assurance, ask the author for source provenance or a homepage, since the skill's source/homepage are unknown.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: github-stars-tracker
Version: 1.0.0
The skill is a legitimate tool for monitoring GitHub repository statistics (stars, forks). It interacts exclusively with the official GitHub API and stores tracking data locally in the user's home directory (~/.github-stars-tracker.json). The code in scripts/tracker.py is straightforward, lacks any high-risk execution patterns (like eval or subprocess), and contains no evidence of data exfiltration or malicious intent.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/description, SKILL.md, and scripts/tracker.py align: the tool queries api.github.com for repo stars and stores state locally. However _meta.json declares required binaries/env (python3, GITHUB_TOKEN) while the registry metadata at the top says no required bins/env — that mismatch is inconsistent and should be reconciled.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md instructs running scripts/tracker.py and setting GITHUB_TOKEN — which is appropriate. The script reads/writes ~/.github-stars-tracker.json and performs network calls only to api.github.com (expected). However there is a coding bug: cmd_status calls fetch_repo (undefined) instead of fetch_repo_info, causing runtime failure for the 'status' command. The script also writes to the user's home directory (normal for a CLI tool but worth noting).
Install Mechanism
No install spec (instruction-only + included script). No remote downloads or installers; lowest-risk install posture. The included code will run locally with Python.
Credentials
The only credential used is GITHUB_TOKEN (to avoid rate limits) which is proportionate to the stated purpose. The manifest (_meta.json) declares this env var; the top-level registry metadata does not — inconsistency to resolve. The script does not send the token to any other endpoint beyond including it in Authorization header to api.github.com.
Persistence & Privilege
The skill does not request elevated platform privileges or always:true. It persists only to a single per-user file (~/.github-stars-tracker.json) which is within the expected scope for a tracker tool.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install github-stars-tracker - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/github-stars-tracker - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
