My GitHub Wrapped 2025

First I used git-wrapped.com again to pull my 2025 stats but then I built gh-wrapped to give a better overview. Here’s what it gave me for this far through 2025.

Note

See last year’s data at My GitHub Wrapped 2024 or (for fun) I generated My GitHub Wrapped 2019 with my new gh-wrapped script.

Notes

2025 has way way more commits than 2024 for a couple reasons:

  • Claude Code was released and completely changed my workflow
  • I set up more frequent syndication and automations on my personal site that committed changes under my signature

Here’s how I was working with Claude Code for the latter 2/3 of 2025:

  • Have an idea for something to build or fix or explore in a code repository
  • Open a new git-worktree in the repository, in a tab in my WezTerm terminal
  • Split the tab/window into two panes:
    • The left pane is for me to view files, edit in Neovim, run shell commands, etc.
    • The right pane is for me to run a Claude Code session/chat
  • Write a pretty lengthy prompt explaining what I want to do (or use one of my dozens of commands for e.g. fixing a bug, writing a test, etc.) and send Claude Code on its merry way
  • While it’s running, review changes, edit my own, etc. in parallel
  • Rely on Directed Notifications for Claude Code Async Programming to tell me when I need to give permission or intervene

This allowed me to be running a half-dozen parallel ideas/tasks on a project at once, with Claude Code committing as went went along.

I really leaned into GitHub’s CLI extension system in 2025 (examples), which helped me package my ideas and share them with the wider organization at Shopify. I think 2026 should shift my focus to Claude Code extensions; I’ve been building and privately distributing a bunch of them all year, but I think I should shift to open-sourcing them and building a proper library out of them. I’ve hesitated in 2025 because I think the systems were too fresh and in flux, but I expect things to calm down and consolidate in 2026.

I didn’t gain any sponsors in 2025 but it’s because I’m only working on small (though many!) tools and projects. I think people only want to sponsor big ideas.
