Source preview

Read the project’s overview, installation instructions and usage examples. The original README is the source of truth.

A repository's first hour decides its fate. Visitors judge the name, the description, the README and the topics before they read a single line of code. This tool audits a GitHub repository before launch and scores ten readiness signals 0-10, so you see what your first users will see - while you can still fix it. Every check is explained in docs/checks.md - including why it matters and how to fix a fail. Or run it without installing: Works on any public repository. No token required for occasional use. Available on the GitHub Marketplace - add it to any workflow in one step. GitHub search weighs a repository's name, description, topics, README and engagement together. Most repositories fail their first impression not because of the code, but because the name is vague, the About line is empty, the topics are missing or the README never explains how to install anything.…
