Daily GitHub Contribution Trigger

A minimal, transparent, and automated setup to generate daily GitHub contributions using GitHub Actions.

This repository updates a small internal file once per day and commits the change automatically, ensuring consistent and legitimate activity on the GitHub contribution graph.

---

🚀 How It Works

• GitHub Actions runs on a scheduled cron job
• A lightweight file (.github/heartbeat.txt) is updated with the current timestamp
• The change is committed automatically to the main branch
• Each successful run results in one valid GitHub contribution

This approach follows GitHub’s contribution rules and avoids unnecessary commit noise.

🧠 Why This Exists

This project is useful for:

• Maintaining a consistent contribution streak
• Learning and testing GitHub Actions scheduling (cron)
• Understanding automated commits in CI/CD workflows
• Keeping your GitHub profile active during busy periods
• Serving as a reference template for automation-first repositories

⚠️ This project intentionally generates only one commit per day.
Multiple commits on the same day do not increase contribution count.
