# GitHub Health Check

See whether a repository is still being looked after

## What this does

You are about to rely on someone else's project and you want to know if anyone is still tending it. This checks a GitHub repository's freshness through the official API, and it is explicit about which hosts it will talk to. Reach for it before you commit to a dependency you have not vetted.

### Top 3 things it does for you

- Check if a repo is still active
- Look up how fresh a project is before I depend on it

A scan is named by the exact content it read, not by a version number. A different version is a different artifact, and nothing here applies to a version AIR has not scanned.

## Questions

### Is GitHub Health Check safe to install?

AIR scanned this exact version of GitHub Health Check and flagged nothing. AIR's verdict: safe. The verdict is named by the content that was read, at commit 0bacdf401eec, so it cannot drift onto a version nobody scanned. The full report is at https://airmarket.ai/security/github-health-check.

### How do I install GitHub Health Check?

Open https://airmarket.ai/app/github-health-check on Air Market and use the install action: Air Market hands Claude a prompt naming this exact skill, and Claude sets it up. Source, pinned to the exact commit this listing describes: https://github.com/yaojingang/yao-open-skills/tree/0bacdf401eec8082a6c28034d785fbe5d7faf3ba/skills/yao-doctor-skill/evals/pressure_suite/github-health-check.
