Summary

Mapping the full Devarno GitHub ecosystem revealed 22 orgs, ~444 repos, 44 GH Projects, and 207 gists. The scale makes flat tracking impossible — Grace needs tiered awareness where depth of monitoring matches org activity level.

​
What changed operationally

Introduced a 4-tier classification: active-core (5 orgs, deep tracking), active (6 orgs, project tracking), scaffolded (6 orgs, existence-level), archive (4 orgs, ignore). This reduced the effective monitoring surface from 444 repos to ~80 key repos across 11 active orgs while maintaining awareness of the full portfolio. Produced two machine-readable config files (ecosystem.yaml, projects-index.yaml) that Grace can consume. Updated HEARTBEAT.md with cross-org health checks scoped by tier.

​
Business impact

  • Grace now has visibility into 44 GH Projects (up from 0) across 9 orgs
  • Largest backlogs surfaced: FORGE Phase 6 (131 items), Traceo Production Sprint (130), Choco Block F (118) — these are the bottlenecks
  • 207 gists catalogued with a naming convention — previously unsearchable knowledge now indexed

​
Operational takeaway

For a solo founder operating 22 orgs, the orchestration layer must tier its attention or drown in noise. The tier classification should be refreshed monthly as scaffolded orgs activate and active orgs wind down.
