Bug Description

getTopRepositories() scores repos with:

score = stargazers_count + forks_count*2 + watchers_count*1.5 + activityBonus
(src/services/analytics.js, ~lines 194-198)

On the GitHub REST API, watchers_count is a duplicate of stargazers_count (both are the
star count); the real watcher/subscriber count is subscribers_count, which the repos list
endpoint doesn't even return. So the formula is effectively stars2.5 + forks2 + ... —
stars are silently weighted 2.5x, and the intended "watchers" signal contributes nothing.

This matters because getTopRepositories(..., 10) selects the top 10 repos per org in standard
(no-PAT) mode, and that selection feeds Repositories, Contributors, Network, Governance and
Analytics (AppContext.jsx lines 227, 282).

Live proof (2026-10-22):

• GET api.github.com/repos/facebook/react -> stargazers_count 251692, watchers_count 251692
  (identical), subscribers_count 6610.
• Running the real getTopRepositories on AOSSIE-Org's 87 repos, the buggy top-10 includes
  "Devr.AI" where a stars-only (corrected) top-10 picks "BabyNest" — the duplicate-stars term
  actually changes which repos are selected.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Open api.github.com/repos/facebook/react and note watchers_count == stargazers_count,
   while subscribers_count is much smaller.

2. Run the repro (imports the project's real getTopRepositories):

   node f2_watchers.mjs

   watchers_count === stargazers_count : true

   current top-10: [...,"OrgExplorer","Devr.AI"]

   corrected top-10: [...,"OrgExplorer","BabyNest"] <- ranking changes

Logs and Screenshots

=== F2.1 GitHub API fact (facebook/react) ===
stargazers_count : 251692
watchers_count : 251692 <-- identical to stars
subscribers_count: 6610 <-- the REAL watcher count
watchers_count === stargazers_count : true

=== F2.2 Top-10 selection for AOSSIE-Org (87 repos) ===
current (with watchers_count*1.5): [...,"OrgExplorer","Devr.AI"]
corrected(watchers term removed) : [...,"OrgExplorer","BabyNest"]
positions that differ: ["Devr.AI"]

Environment Details

• OS: macOS (API behaviour is platform-independent)
• Browser: Chrome
• Repo: main @ d91d2b8, src/services/analytics.js getTopRepositories()
• Node.js: v20 (for the repro script)
• Suggested fix: drop the watchers_count term (it duplicates stars). subscribers_count would
  be the real signal but isn't on the list endpoint, so removing the term is the simplest fix.
