| name | repo-stats-autoupdate |
| description | Keeps README badge + inline counts in sync with the real number of skills, agents, graph nodes/edges, communities, converted pipelines, and pytest tests. Runs automatically on every commit via a git pre-commit hook. Use when the README drifts from reality or before publishing a release. |

repo-stats-autoupdate
What this skill does
Reads the authoritative sources for the ctx repo's key numbers and patches README.md in place so badges and inline counts never drift:
| Number | Source of truth |
|---|
| Skills | ~/.claude/skill-wiki/graphify-out/graph.json — count nodes where type == "skill" |
| Agents | same file — count nodes where type == "agent" |
| Graph nodes | len(graph["nodes"]) |
| Graph edges | len(graph["edges"]), formatted as 642K / 1.2M |
| Communities | graph/communities.json → total_communities |
| Converted pipelines | ~/.claude/skill-wiki/converted/ subdir count |
| Tests | pytest --collect-only -q from src/ |
Fields that can't be resolved (e.g. wiki not deployed) are left untouched — the updater never blocks a commit.
How to use it
One-time install (per clone):
git config core.hooksPath .githooks
After that, every git commit runs .githooks/pre-commit which calls the updater and re-stages README.md if any number drifted.
Manual run:
python src/update_repo_stats.py
python src/update_repo_stats.py --check
When NOT to use it
- When you've deliberately phrased a number descriptively (e.g. "over 1,700 skills") — the regex patterns only match exact digits, so prose phrasings are safe, but double-check after big imports.
- When the wiki isn't deployed locally. The updater degrades gracefully: it prints a warning and skips fields it can't resolve. It does not invent numbers.
Known gaps (intentionally out of scope)
- Does not rebuild the graph or wiki. Rebuilding
graph/wiki-graph.tar.gz takes minutes and churns a large artifact — too heavy for per-commit. Run ctx-wiki-graphify, then python src/validate_graph_artifacts.py --deep, and repack the tarball manually when the skill catalog changes materially.
- Does not verify graph integrity. If
graphify-out/graph.json is corrupt, you'll get junk numbers. Run the wiki health check (python src/wiki_orchestrator.py --check) separately.
