Usage
Invoked as part of /tome:research or standalone.
Workflow
- Build search queries using
tome.channels.github.build_github_search_queries() - Execute queries via WebSearch
- Parse results via
parse_github_result() - Optionally use GitHub API via
build_github_api_search()for richer metadata - Rank via
rank_github_findings() - Return Finding objects
Exit Criteria
- At least one GitHub search query built and executed via WebSearch for the requested topic
- Results parsed into Finding objects containing repo metadata (name, URL, stars) and a relevance score
- Findings returned from
rank_github_findings()sorted by relevance score descending - If no results are found for the query, this is reported explicitly rather than returning an empty list silently
