GitHub Trending Scraper

What this actor does

Track trending repositories, developers, star velocity, language shifts, and weekly breakout signals.

GitHub Trending Scraper normalizes repository and developer trend data into compact records for open-source scouting, recruiting, and technical radar agents.

Use cases

• Open-source trend scouting
• Developer tooling research
• Recruiting and ecosystem monitoring

Output fields

The actor is designed for compact JSON records that are easy to send into dashboards, webhooks, MCP clients, vector databases, and AI pipelines.

Best first run

Start with one narrow github trending scraper query or a short URL list, keep the default max item limit, and confirm the returned repo, developer, language, stars fields before scaling volume.

Sample JSON output

Field values vary by source and input, but the record shape is kept compact so it can move cleanly into dashboards, webhooks, and AI workflows.
