The PLDG Dashboard provides transparent, data-driven insights into the health and growth of the Filecoin, Libp2p, and broader Protocol Labs Network (PLN) ecosystems.
It aggregates data from GitHub, Airtable, on-chain sources, and decentralized storage — offering real-time visualization of developer activity, engagement, and contribution trends.
Developed by C4GT (Code for GovTech) contributors, this voluntary open-source initiative fosters collaborative learning, transparency, and coordination across the Filecoin and Protocol Labs communities.

Historical Data
- Relies on Storacha MCP for persistence; versioning is manual
- GitHub API resets metrics on refresh without Storacha backup
-
AI Insights
- Summarization quality depends on data density
- ElizaOS agents require tuned prompts for optimal responses
-
Real-Time Constraints
- Airtable and GitHub APIs are rate-limited
- Anonymous commits yield limited insight fidelity
- Real-time dashboard
- GitHub + Airtable integration
- Core analytics & AI summarization
- Storacha test integration
- Builder Insights Engine (on-chain + GitHub-linked)
- Persistent Storacha MCP snapshots
- ElizaOS Plugin for agent-based querying
- Weekly digest report generation
- Per-team custom insights
- Token-gated dashboards (bounty and contributor access)
- AI-human feedback loops
- Integration with decentralized compute (Bacalhau, Lilypad)
The PLDG Dashboard is a Developer Tooling / Ecosystem Infrastructure project under Filecoin RetroPGF for Builders: Supporting Open Source Coordination Through PLDG.
It contributes to improving transparency, impact measurement, and talent recognition across the Protocol Labs Network — spanning Filecoin, IPFS, Libp2p, Fil-Oz, Fil-B, and Storacha communities.

Since November 2024, the PLDG Dashboard has:
- Enhanced visibility and engagement across the Filecoin developer ecosystem
- Combined on-chain, GitHub, and AI-summarized metrics for ecosystem health
- Empowered contributors with transparent self-reflection and progress tracking
- Provided actionable insights for ecosystem stewards and program leads
Over time, it aims to serve as the open-source intelligence layer for developer coordination and recognition across the Protocol Labs Network.
