Recruiters read a quiet recent graph as 'inactive'. A few commits this week resets that read.
2
Add a bio
One line — who you are and what you build — frames everything below it. Don't make recruiters guess.
3
Tidy 6 stale repos
Archive what's done so live repos stand out — a wall of dormant projects reads as scattered.
4
Describe your top repos (octocat.github.io, test-repo1)
A one-line what + why is the first thing a recruiter reads. Blank descriptions read as abandoned.
5
Pin your 3 strongest repos (Spoon-Knife, Hello-World, octocat.github.io)
Pinned repos are the profile's storefront — lead with your highest-star, original work.
Signal-based, not gatekeeping — derived from your public activity, reach, and project depth.
