How it works

  1. data/agents.yml is the curated source list.
  2. A daily GitHub Actions workflow (.github/workflows/update.yml) runs the Go updater.
  3. The updater fetches live repo metadata via the GitHub GraphQL API in one batched query.
  4. Star counts are appended to data/history.jsonl for 7-day delta computation.
  5. This README.md is regenerated from templates/readme.tmpl and committed back to the repo.

Contributing
