GitHub AI Trends

Generate formatted leaderboard of trending AI projects on GitHub, output directly to chat.

Usage

Run the script and paste its stdout as the reply:

python3 scripts/fetch_trends.py --period weekly --limit 20

Parameters

• --period: daily | weekly | monthly (default: weekly)
• --limit: Number of repos (default: 20)
• --token: GitHub token for higher rate limits (or set GITHUB_TOKEN env)
• --json: Output raw JSON instead of formatted text

How It Works

1. Searches GitHub API for AI-related repos (by keywords + topics) pushed within the period
2. Deduplicates and sorts by star count
3. Outputs a formatted markdown leaderboard ready for chat display

Notes

• Without a GitHub token, API rate limit is 10 requests/minute. With token: 30/minute.
• No pip dependencies, uses only stdlib.
• Output is markdown formatted for direct chat display.
