docs: surface open source presence in README header#46
Merged
Conversation
Add a GitHub stars badge to the existing badge row and a short italic sub-line under it inviting issues/PRs/stars. Make the MIT license badge clickable (links to LICENSE). The body and footer already mentioned open source, but neither the header badges nor the visual top-of-fold signaled "this is on GitHub, read/star the source." Stars badge matches marketplace badge style (flat, VS Code blue) so the row stays visually coherent. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

Adds the canonical GitHub "this is open source" signals to the README header without making the page shouty about it.
Changes
flat+ VS Code blue (#0078d4) to match the marketplace badges already there.LICENSE(was a static image).Body copy on line ~36 ("free and open source alternative") and footer mention are left as-is — each says it a different way.
Why
The README already said "open source" three times, but none of them were the top-of-fold signal readers scan for. The badge row was marketplace-only; nothing hinted at the GitHub presence until you reached the footer.
