get_repo_analysisLABSCO SUMMARY
Repository judgement from event data, not from stars.
Star count is one number. This returns the trend behind it and who is actually committing, with a link to the OSSInsight page so the answer can be checked.
What it is
A client for OSSInsight.io, which analyses GitHub's public event data. It returns a repository's or a developer's analysis from both the API and the rendered page, browses OSSInsight's curated project collections, and passes a plain-English question to OSSInsight's own query interface.
What you get
- A repository's analysis — star trend, contributor activity, commits — over a time range you choose
- A developer's contribution pattern, activity history and reach
- Curated collections such as open-source databases or AI tools, listed and opened
- A plain-English question answered by OSSInsight's own natural-language query interface
- A link back to the OSSInsight page behind every answer, so the numbers can be checked rather than taken
Requirements
The server runs locally and queries OSSInsight over the network. The data it reads is GitHub's public event data as OSSInsight publishes it.
Setup effort
One command — docker run --rm -i mcp/ossinsight
USE CASES
Judging whether a project is still alive
Star trend and contributor activity over a window you set, which is what a flat total hides.
Reading a contributor's real track record
Contribution pattern and activity history, rather than a profile page's highlights.
Finding the serious projects in a category
Browse the curated collections and open the one that matches, instead of searching by topic tag.
Asking a question the fixed reports do not cover
Put it in plain English and let OSSInsight's own query interface answer it.
