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
