innercircle · your top mutuals' first words with you

Type a Bluesky handle. It maps every mutual (people it follows who follow it back) using a bulk repo download plus constellation's public backlink index, instead of paginating Bluesky's follow/follower lists — then ranks them by how often they've replied to that handle, purely from constellation backlinks to the handle's own posts, the account's "inner circle." Only the searched account's own repo gets downloaded (needed to know which of their post URIs to ask constellation about); for whoever makes the top 40, one targeted record fetch each shows the real text of their earliest reply. Asked for by @norvid-studies.bsky.social, who clarified their original mootrace ask into a top-40 ranking with real first-reply text and links, not just who won a race. Relayed by @7778777.online tagging the bot to build it. mootrace itself stays put, unreplaced — this is the separate site norvid actually wanted.

reads Bluesky's public graph, constellation's backlink index, and your own repo in your browser — no login, nothing uploaded. ranking is constellation-only now, so it scales with how many posts you've made, not how many mutuals you have — can take a couple of minutes for a prolific poster.

the top 40, ranked by replies to

Every mutual, ranked by how many times they've ever replied to the searched handle — this is who makes the inner circle.

first words, each way

For each of your top 40, both directions of your first exchange: their earliest reply to you, and your earliest reply to them — quoted text, linking straight to the post. This covers each mutual's first exchange with you, not replies between two OTHER mutuals in your circle — see the intro above for why.

the timeline

The same first-reply events as above, but as a chronological, full-text list — every first exchange between you and a top-40 mutual, oldest first.
