Sky Map Contributors Sync

This skill automates the update of the Sky Map contributors list from GitHub.

Usage

1. Check if tools/no-checkin-github_pat exists in the repo root. If it does, read the token from it (strip any leading 1→ prefix) and pass it as GITHUB_TOKEN.
   • This file must never be checked in — it is a local secret.
   • If the file doesn't exist, check if GITHUB_TOKEN is already set in the environment.
   • Without a token the script still works but is limited to 60 API requests/hour, which may not be enough to fetch all contributor profiles. Warn the user if unauthenticated.
2. Run the script:

   GITHUB_TOKEN=<token> python3 tools/sync-contributors.py
   

3. After the script runs, verify the changes in app/src/main/res/values/notranslate-contributors.xml.

What the script does

• Paginates through all commits on sky-map-team/stardroid via the GitHub API.
• Records contributors in reverse-chronological order of their most recent commit (first appearance in the commit stream).
• Skips bot accounts (logins ending in [bot]).
• For each unique login, fetches the GitHub profile to obtain the user's real name; falls back to the login handle if no name is set.
• Deduplicates by normalizing display names to lowercase alphanumeric — so "John Smith" and "john smith" are treated as the same person.

Standards

• Output file: app/src/main/res/values/notranslate-contributors.xml
• Names are comma-separated, Android-XML-escaped.
• The XML must maintain the notranslate- naming convention to avoid localization issues.
