Project Excavation

Run a full archaeological dig on an abandoned project using Borg.

Usage

/collect:excavate masari
/collect:excavate graft-project
/collect:excavate turtlecoin

Action

Run a multi-step excavation:

1. Collect GitHub repos

borg collect github repos <org> --format stim -o digs/<project>/github.stim

2. Collect website (if still up)

borg collect website https://<project-domain> --depth 3 --format stim -o digs/<project>/website.stim

3. Collect Wayback snapshots

borg collect website "https://web.archive.org/web/*/<project-domain>" --depth 2 -o digs/<project>/wayback.stim

4. Create reports

After collection, create:

  • digs/<project>/SALVAGE-REPORT.md - What's worth keeping
  • digs/<project>/LESSONS.md - Post-mortem analysis
