🎤 Motivation

Add dynamic badges for not yet implemented buildkite API data.

[chris48s]

Our existing BuildKite badge uses an unauthenticated and non-rate limited endpoint which just exposes one value

example call: https://badge.buildkite.com/3826789cf8890b426057e6fe1c4e683bdf04fa24d498885489.json

Moving to using the Rest API would require auth and also requires staying under a rate limit (200 requests per minute).

I suspect this one may also not be viable, but I think if someone is interested in working on this one, the first question to look into would be what data public data is available via the rest API. Does being an authenticated user allow access to any public metrics about all projects?

If not, do any of the documented scopes expose a small enough subset of data that they could be exposed in a badge URL? This probably need some input from someone who is at least a regular user of the BuildKite platform.
