## What it does

This server connects coding assistants to public GitHub telemetry. It measures how fast startup repositories accumulate code changes, contributors, and new repos. The monitored pool spans 15 market segments, including robotics, developer tooling, and enterprise software. A fresh data batch arrives every Monday.

The integration includes 13 distinct tools. Ten core utilities require zero authentication, letting you pull trending rosters, verify company records, and contrast projects side by side. Three deep-scan functions operate on a paid model costing €0.10 per request.

## Requirements
- Needs: Node.js (commands run via npx)
- Works with: GitHub
