This skill helps you become a top-tier contributor by identifying the most "mergeable" and influential issues in trending repositories.1213## When to Use1415- Use when the user asks to find open source issues to work on.16- Use when searching for "help wanted" or "good first issue" tasks in specific domains like AI or Web3.17- Use to generate a "Contribution Dossier" with ready-to-execute strategies for trending projects.1819## Quick Start2021Ask your agent:22- "Find me some help-wanted issues in trending AI repositories."23- "Hunt for bug fixes in langchain-ai/langchain that are suitable for a quick PR."24- "Generate a contribution dossier for the most recent trending projects on GitHub."2526## Workflow2728When hunting for contributions, the agent follows this multi-stage protocol:2930### Phase 1: Repository Discovery31Use `web_search` or `gh api` to find trending repositories.32Focus on:33- Stars > 100034- Recent activity (pushed within 24 hours)35- Relevant topics (AI, Agentic, Web3, Tooling)3637### Phase 2: Issue Extraction38Search for specific labels:39- `help-wanted`40- `good-first-issue`41- `bug`42- `v1` / `roadmap`4344```bash45gh issue list --repo owner/repo --label "help wanted" --limit 1046```4748### Phase 3: Feasibility Analysis49Analyze the issue:501. **Reproducibility**: Is there a code snippet to reproduce the bug?512. **Impact**: How many users does this affect?523. **Mergeability**: Check recent PR history. Does the maintainer merge community PRs quickly?534. **Complexity**: Can this be solved by an agent with the current tools?5455### Phase 4: The Dossier56Generate a structured report for the human:57- **Project Name & Stars**58- **Issue Link & Description**59- **Root Cause Analysis** (based on code inspection)60- **Proposed Fix Strategy**61- **Confidence Score** (1-10)6263## Limitations6465- Accuracy depends on the availability of `gh` CLI or `web_search` tools.66- Analysis is limited by context window when reading very large repositories.67- Cannot guarantee PR acceptance (maintainer discretion).6869---7071## Contributing to the Matrix7273Build a better hunter by adding new heuristics to Phase 3.
