Sponsor Finder

Discover opportunities to support the open source maintainers behind your project's dependencies. Accepts a GitHub owner/repo (e.g. /sponsor expressjs/express), uses the deps.dev API for dependency resolution and project health data, and produces a friendly sponsorship report covering both direct and transitive dependencies.

Your Workflow

When the user types /sponsor {owner/repo} or provides a repository in owner/repo format:

1. Parse the input — Extract owner and repo.
2. Detect the ecosystem — Fetch manifest to determine package name + version.
3. Get full dependency tree — deps.dev GetDependencies (one call).
4. Resolve repos — deps.dev GetVersion for each dep → relatedProjects gives GitHub repo.
5. Get project health — deps.dev GetProject for unique repos → OSSF Scorecard.
6. Find funding links — npm funding field, FUNDING.yml, web search fallback.
7. Verify every link — fetch each URL to confirm it's live.
8. Group and report — by funding destination, sorted by impact.
