So I created this code to reorganize my 5,000 GitHub starred repositories.
It took Claude Code a little over two hours to sort everything into structured categories and lists, all while respecting GitHub API rate limits.
Before that, I had a “To Sort” list with more than 600 unsorted repositories, plus dozens of manually created lists. Every time I starred a repository, I tried to place it in the most relevant list. But over time, the diversity and depth of my starred repositories outgrew the structure I had manually built. My 32 lists simply weren’t granular enough anymore.
So I decided to scrap all manually created lists and start fresh.
With Claude, I analyzed the actual data behind my starred repositories and defined a new set of list categories based on real distribution patterns instead of intuition. Once the taxonomy was defined, the automated classification process began. A bit more than two hours later, everything was sorted.
Now, when I star a new repository, I finally have a list structure that reflects the real diversity of what I collect. I can sort new stars manually from GitHub (mobile or desktop), and if needed, I can always rerun the stargazer Python script to reclassify and effectively “fact-check” existing classifications.
Since this workflow proved so effective, I decided to build a dedicated search page on my site to explore all 5,000 repositories more easily.
Here is the result:

This challenge was initiated by Alexandra from wrywriter.ca — thanks for putting this together! Why did you make a blog in the first place? My first blog goes back to the early 2000s — it was called “Make Love Not War” and it was a space where I was...

Testing my new Micropub MCP client — posting from the terminal via Claude Code, with automatic syndication and OG image generation.

Heh! this is fun !

Yay! my cloudron package for #funkwhale was adopted by Cloudron team, its now officially in the cloudron app store ! Unstable for now but ready for testing ! I’m going to think about how to migrate buzzworkers.com to the official funkwhale package !

I can now search across all my 5k Github starred repo’s from my own site :) I still need to finetune the search feature and perhaps add filtering based on my Github lists but it’s usable for now.

Working on a new feature for my GitHub activity page — a searchable starred repositories browser. The idea is to visualize all my GitHub stars with filtering by language, topic, and description, making it easy to find that one repo you starred months ago. Building it as part of the @rmdes/indiekit-endpoint-github plugin.

Exploring the idea of self-hosting a Bluesky PDS alongside my Indiekit instance — turning it into a dual-protocol server that federates over both ActivityPub and AT Protocol simultaneously. Inspired by Wafrn’s approach, adapted to Indiekit’s plugin architecture and Cloudron deployment. The goal: own your AT Protocol identity and data on your own infrastructure, not on bsky.social. Plan drafted, implementation to follow.

Syndication Readiness Gate for Indiekit
Fixed a race condition where posts were syndicated to Bluesky and Mastodon before Eleventy finished building them — causing 404 links and wrong OG images that platforms cache permanently.
The fix adds a two-layer check: before syndicating each post, the system now verifies via HTTP HEAD that both the post URL and its /og/
.png image return 200. If either isn’t ready yet, the post is skipped and retried on the next 2-minute cycle. A bash-level safety net also skips the entire syndication cycle if the site itself isn’t responding.
No more “your link is broken” replies — posts only reach social platforms once they’re fully built and live.

Interesting, I just noticed Bluesky has now a “Live Stream” integration with Twitch, Streamplace and Bluecast.
You can add your link and it show up as “live” when live. Mastodon could do that with Peertube or Loop
