The script: - Appends a timestamp to `.streak` file - Creates a commit with the specified date - Pushes to remote automatically ## Instructions When the user requests to backfill dates: 1. Parse the date(s) from the user's request (support various formats like "10/25", "Oct 25", "2025-10-25") 2. Convert to YYYY-MM-DD format 3. Run `./streakify.sh YYYY-MM-DD` for each date in chronological order (oldest first) 4. The script will automatically commit and push ## Examples - "backfill for 10/25 and 10/26" → run for 2025-10-25, then 2025-10-26 - "backfill yesterday" → calculate yesterday's date and run - "backfill for last week" → run for each day in the past 7 days ## Notes - The script is already permitted in `.claude/settings.local.json` - No need to analyze the repository structure - just run the script - Dates are backfilled at 13:33:33 by the script - Process multiple dates in chronological order (oldest first) --- > Source: [jontsai/github-streak](https://github.com/jontsai/github-streak) — distributed by [TomeVault](https://tomevault.io).
