# OSS Contributor Swarm Skill

> "I don't just write PRs. I continuously contribute to open source while learning from every interaction."

This skill deploys a **9-agent swarm** that autonomously:
1. Qualifies repositories for contribution-friendliness
2. Finds suitable "good first issues"
3. Analyzes requirements
4. Clones and understands codebases
5. Writes fixes/features
6. Adds tests (if needed)
7. Updates documentation (if needed)
8. Creates professional pull requests
9. Responds to review feedback automatically

## Quick Start

```bash
# Run a single contribution cycle
./scripts/run-swarm.sh single

# Run continuous 24/7 mode (target: 3-5 PRs/day)
./scripts/run-swarm.sh start

# View dashboard
./scripts/run-swarm.sh dashboard
```

## Prerequisites

- GitHub CLI (`gh`) - authenticated
- Claude Code CLI (`claude`)
- `jq` and `git`

## Key Features

### Continuous Mode
Runs 24/7, automatically finding and contributing to open source projects.

### Learning System
Tracks success patterns and improves over time:
- Best issue types (typo, docs, tests)
- Best languages and repo sizes
- Maintainer preferences
- Auto-avoids problematic repos

### Auto-Fix Reviews
Agent 8 can automatically fix simple review requests:
- Typos, style, formatting → Auto-fix
- Logic changes → Escalate to human

## Configuration

Edit `config/swarm-config.json` to customize:
- Target daily PRs (default: 3-5)
- Max concurrent PRs (default: 3)
- Repo qualification criteria
- Learning parameters

## Safety

- Never force pushes
- Respects CONTRIBUTING.md
- Max 5 files / 100 lines per PR
- Human approval for security changes
