What's in v1.0.0
- Fetches views, clones, referrers, popular paths, and star count in one run
- Clone rate benchmarked per traffic source — HN traffic benchmarked at 8–15%, Reddit at 3–8%, Google at 0.5–3% (not a flat "2-5%" that ignores where visitors came from)
- Data lag correction: excludes last 2 days from week-over-week to avoid false "declining" reads
- Saves a snapshot on every run to
~/.github-growth-check/— track trends beyond GitHub's 14-day window - Repo context awareness: age, star tier, and language shape the benchmarks
- One specific next action at the end — not generic advice, based on actual numbers
