Scoring System

Candidates are scored 0-100 based on:

  1. Tech Stack Match (weighted highest)

    • Languages in repos match requested skills
    • Bio/readme mentions relevant technologies
    • Smart keyword matching (e.g., "k8s" → "kubernetes")

  2. Activity Score

    • Recent commits and contributions
    • PR and issue activity
    • Contribution calendar analysis

  3. Repository Quality

    • Stars and forks on repos
    • Number of public repositories
    • Code quality indicators

  4. Profile Completeness

    • Bio present
    • Hireable flag set
    • Contact info available (email, website, Twitter)

Role Presets

Use role parameter for pre-configured skill sets:

Role Auto-includes
frontend react, vue, angular, typescript, css
backend node, python, java, go, rust
fullstack react, node, typescript, postgresql
devops kubernetes, docker, terraform, aws
mobile swift, kotlin, react-native, flutter
data python, sql, spark, tensorflow

Tips

  1. Combine location + skills for best results
  2. Response is gzipped - pipe through gunzip or use --compressed with curl
  3. Use streaming endpoint for large searches (100+ users)
  4. Be specific with location - "san francisco" works better than "usa"

Integration Ideas

  • Recruiting pipeline: Search → Filter by score → Export contacts
  • Talent mapping: Analyze developer density by location/tech
  • Competitive intel: Track where top talent is concentrated
  • Outreach automation: Get emails for high-score hireable candidates
