I built a CLI tool to find worthwhile GitHub issues to contribute to

A developer built oss-issue-scout, a CLI tool that helps people find GitHub issues worth contributing to.

It ranks issues using signals like repository activity, issue freshness, labels, comment volume, and beginner-friendliness.

The goal is to surface active, approachable tasks instead of relying only on the “good first issue” label.

The project is still early, and the author plans to improve how it explains its recommendations.
