A collective experiment in progress, persistence, and discovery.
Chisel is a GitHub challenge where every small action contributes to something greater.
Your task is simple: Remove one file.
That’s it. No code, no complexity—just a tiny moment of progress.
Every file removed gets us closer to uncovering something.
What will it be? You’ll have to help chisel away to find out.
- Fork this repo.
- Delete one file from the
filesdirectory. - Submit a pull request.
- Watch as it’s automatically merged.
We all love the feeling of making progress—even in small ways.
But sometimes, progress isn't about building—it’s about removing.
Chisel is an experiment in habit-building, teamwork, and simple wins.
Every file removed gets us closer to revealing what’s underneath.
- You can only delete one file per pull request.
- No automation—each PR must be manual.
- No edits—only deletions.
- A maximum of 20 PRs per user per day is preferred.
- PRs that add or modify files will be rejected.
