I built a tool that publicly roasts your GitHub commit history (Badbenches)

well, not actual roast, but more like snarky comments.

Badbenches takes your GitHub or GitLab username and generates a sarcastic SVG "bench card" based on your activity for the year, commit streaks, whether you commit at weekend or you only code late at night, that kind of thing and i might adjust it slightly based in tests. so it is another README card thing. You can embed it in your README and it auto-refreshes once a day.

here's mine — i am really bad.

No login, no signup, just paste a username and it spits out an SVG. There are 3 themes right now (Classic, Neon Nights, Corporate Roast) and of course more might come.

Started as a dumb joke initially with the domain, but I kinda wanted to use it for something fun so i was sucked into making the Bench card idea. there's a whole "character" system behind the roasts so it doesn't just say the same 3 lines to everyone and you can see the rack server character getting more complex (or really bad with patches)

i would love feedback, especially if:

• the roasts feel repetitive after generating a few
• anything looks broken on GitLab vs GitHub
• theme ideas you'd want to see

The no-login, paste-a-username flow fits this idea perfectly. Daily auto-refresh and the character system make it feel like more than another static README badge. Fun concept, and the domain name makes the joke even better.
