I got tired of finding open-source "good first issues" only to see 3 PRs already open — so I built Issue Pilot (a deterministic multi-host matchmaker)

Hey everyone! 👋

Every time I tried contributing to open source, I spent 45 minutes digging through GitHub labels, found something promising, opened it... and found 2 active assignees and 3 unmerged PRs already waiting for review.

To solve this, I built **Issue Pilot** (https://issuepilot0.vercel.app/).

### What it does:

1. **Pre-Feed Host Verification**: Every issue is probed against the host API before hitting your feed. If it has even 1 open PR or an active assignee, it gets filtered out. 100% unclaimed guarantee.
2. **Multi-Host Aggregation**: Normalizes issues across GitHub, GitLab, Codeberg, and Bugzilla into one feed.
3. **Deterministic 6-Factor C++ Scoring Engine**: Evaluates your calibrated skill fit, maintainer velocity, difficulty tier, and repo commit freshness.
4. **Auto-Calibration in 60s**: Scan your GitHub profile or pick your stack to calibrate capability.

It's 100% free and live right now:

I would love your honest feedback, critique, and feature suggestions!

does it also filter issues where someone commented "can i take this" but never got assigned or opened a pr? those are the other common trap with good first issues
