Skill: GitHub Traffic

Fetch and analyze GitHub repository traffic data — page views, git clones, referral sources, popular pages, and star growth. Optionally generate trend charts as PNG images.

Prerequisites:

gh CLI must be installed and authenticated

Push (write) access to the target repository is required — GitHub's Traffic API does not work with read-only access

matplotlib is optional (for PNG chart generation; falls back to ASCII if unavailable)

When to Use

The user asks about repository traffic, page views, clone counts, or where visitors come from

The user wants to see traffic trends over time (weekly, monthly, quarterly)

The user wants to generate traffic report charts for sharing or documentation

The user wants to periodically snapshot traffic data to build long-term history
