Ran the real Phase 1-4 pipeline live against charmbracelet/glow's actual GitHub issues (gh api + gh issue view, authenticated) and it correctly RICE-scored the most narratively appealing candidate (a quoted pty-hack workaround for AI-agent hook integration) at 31.3 - below the 50-point action threshold - where an unstructured baseline pass would have recommended building it on vibes alone; requires gh CLI + jq installed and `gh auth login` completed before first use.
Scored on four weighted criteria — install, triggering, output vs. baseline, docs. How scoring works
- Installs cleanly 5/5
- Triggers reliably 5/5
- Output vs. baseline 8/10
- Docs & honesty 5/5
What GitHub Demand Radar does
Pulls a repo's recent issues or rejected/stale PRs via gh + jq, runs a Bouncer/Analyst/Strategist three-pass review to find JTBD-driven pain points with real workaround evidence, and RICE-scores them, only drafting fake-door probes for scores >=50. Triggers on requests to scan a GitHub repo's issues or PRs for indie-developer commercialization opportunities.
