SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

contributor-spotlight turns raw fork-cohort data into a polished weekly shout-out, so community contributors get recognition without manual curation.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Weekly contributor spotlight generation: Builds a single “human moment” article from one selected POWER/ACTIVE fork in the most recent fork-cohort dataset.
  • Anti-duplication and safe selection: Deduplicates featured forks across recent weeks, avoids bot/parent entries, and supports an optional override selector.
  • Publication-ready outputs: Writes an articles/contributor-spotlight-YYYY-MM-DD.md markdown post, updates spotlight history memory, and optionally notifies via the skill’s notify hook.

Quick Start

Run contributor-spotlight in execute mode to generate and publish the weekly Contributor Spotlight using the latest fork-cohort data.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate weekly contributor recognition posts from GitHub fork data?

To generate a weekly contributor spotlight, run the skill in execute mode against the latest fork-cohort dataset. It selects a valid POWER/ACTIVE fork, formats it into a dated markdown article, updates history logs, and optionally sends a Telegram notification.

How does fork deduplication work for recurring community spotlights?

Deduplication prevents the same fork from being featured repeatedly by checking recent spotlight history logs before selecting a new cohort entry. This ensures community recognition rotates fairly across different active contributors each week.

Can I send Telegram notifications when publishing a weekly community digest?

Yes, Telegram notifications can be sent automatically when the weekly contributor spotlight is published. The skill uses a notify hook to deliver community recognition alerts alongside the generated markdown article.

What is the process to format GitHub fork activity into a publication-ready article?

Formatting fork activity into an article involves reading cohort data and YAML metadata to generate a dated markdown post. The process writes the formatted contributor spotlight to an articles directory and logs the selection for deduplication.

Does generating a contributor spotlight require any specific configuration files?

Yes, generating a contributor spotlight requires YAML-configured naming and description metadata to format the output correctly. The skill reads this YAML configuration alongside cohort articles and JSON state files to build the recognition post.
