Features

• Multi-source: Searches Algora bounties (💎 Bounty label), GitHub bounty labels, and bounty keywords in issue titles
• Competition scoring: Color-coded competition levels based on comment count
• Smart filtering: Filter by language, minimum amount, and max competition
• JSON output: Pipe to jq or other tools
• No API key required: Uses GitHub's public search API

How It Works

bounty-radar queries the GitHub Search API for issues and PRs with bounty-related labels and keywords, deduplicates results, extracts dollar amounts, and sorts by value.

Limitations

• GitHub API rate limit: ~10 requests/minute for unauthenticated users
• Some bounties don't include dollar amounts in labels/titles
• Results limited to 50 per search query
