GitHub Stars Search

Baala has 2800+ starred repos. Search them to find relevant tools before reinventing the wheel.

Why This Matters

Before building or recommending something, check if Baala already starred a solution. His stars are curated — if he starred it, it's probably good.

Local Indexer (Recommended)

The indexer fetches all starred repos once and saves them locally for instant search.

Build/Update Index

bun ~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/github-stars/index-stars.ts

This fetches all starred repos (2800+) and saves metadata to: ~/.openclaw/workspace/memory/github-stars-index.json

Takes ~3-5 minutes on first run. Re-run periodically to sync new stars.

Search

# Search by keyword (matches name, description, topics, language)
bun ~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/github-stars/index-stars.ts --search "git automation"

# Multiple terms (AND logic)
bun ~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/github-stars/index-stars.ts --search "rust cli"

# Search specific language
bun ~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/github-stars/index-stars.ts --search "zig"

View Stats

bun ~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/github-stars/index-stars.ts --stats

Shows:

• Total repos indexed
• Languages breakdown
• Last sync time

Triggers

Implementation Notes

This skill provides GitHub stars search functionality. It:

1. Maintains a local index of starred repos
2. Supports keyword and language search
3. Provides statistics on starred repos
4. Syncs periodically with GitHub
5. Returns relevant results quickly
