Profile: the year as a signal (contribution pulse) issue #217 closed: completed andymccall opened this 20 days ago · 0 comments

A profile's contribution picture as a waveform of lines changed per day over the last year (mock-up: https://claude.ai/artifact/3GvBZ9uutGAsRj2EXfZoqh, Andy chose it 2026-10-15). Coloured along its length by the repository most worked on (a gradient of the repositories' colours), soft glow; a violet dotted trace for the share signed via agents; a strip under the axis of each day's main repository; the year's total counting up. Motion: draws itself in on load; a heartbeat runs along it every few seconds while idle; reduced motion turns both off. Pointer: a spotlight lights the year near it and dims the rest, a scan line and dot snap to the day, and a card gives the date, lines, changes, share via agents, signed, and a bar of repositories. Peaks are labelled from real events (release tags, imports, big landings). Legend: click a repository to morph into its own year. Data from the database only (pushes, changes with their signer and via, lines per change), per viewer visibility as the dashboard's. SVG, theme tokens, light and dark.
