What is Fake Star Audit?
A transparent, zero-dependency GitHub fake-star checker. It inspects a repository’s stargazer history via the anonymous GitHub API and returns a LOW / MEDIUM / HIGH risk verdict with every rule explained. Designed for investors, engineers, recruiters, and AI agents who need a fast, accountable gut-check on star count believability.
How to use Fake Star Audit?
The tool can be invoked as a standalone CLI (python3 audit.py --repo owner/repo), installed from PyPI (pip install fake-star-audit) and run as fake-star-audit-cli, or used as a Claude Code skill. Its optional MCP server exposes the audit_repo tool over stdio; register it in your MCP client (e.g., Claude Desktop’s config) with uvx fake-star-audit or a local path to mcp_server.py.
