Show HN: GitHub Action to track views, stars, and clones on my projects

Nightly, dependency-free snapshots of ⭐ stars, 👁 views and 📥 clones for all your public repos – zero set-up.
Also auto-generates a clean Markdown report with totals and per-repo breakdowns: see example ›

By default the action discovers every public repo you own that has ≥ 2 stars.
Want to track a different set? Just tell it!

1. Fork this repo to your personal account or org.
2. Enable Actions when GitHub prompts you.
3. (Optional) Open Settings → Variables and tweak:
   • MIN_STARS – raise/lower the auto-discover threshold (default 2).
   • TARGET_REPOS – comma-separated list like
     owner1/repoA,owner2/repoB (adds or replaces the auto list).

That’s it. The workflow runs every night at 00:07 UTC and appends one row per repo to /data/*.csv.
It also builds /stats.md as a lightweight dashboard of total/lifetime stats.

Run it straight away via Actions → “📊 GitHub traffic snapshot” → Run workflow if you don’t want to wait.

• Track only certain repos – set TARGET_REPOS (auto-discover still runs but the explicit list wins).
• Include extra repos – keep TARGET_REPOS empty and list them in config.yml instead; they’ll be added to the discovered set.
• Change the schedule – edit the cron: line in .github/workflows/stats.yml.
• Stop committing from CI – remove --commit in that same workflow step.

All configuration lives in repo settings – no secrets needed unless you push to other repos.
