hello,

the code given in `https://app.circleci.com/settings/project/github/<org>/<repo>/status-badges`  
is invalid, there is an additional parenthesis `)`

```diff
-[![CircleCI](https://circleci.com/gh/algolia/npm-search/tree/master.svg?style=svg))](https://circleci.com/gh/algolia/npm-search/tree/master)
+[![CircleCI](https://circleci.com/gh/algolia/npm-search/tree/master.svg?style=svg)](https://circleci.com/gh/algolia/npm-search/tree/master)

```

Best Regards

Hi @h1fra ,

Thank you for pointing this out! I have submitted a PR for this, and the fix will be reflected once it is approved.

In the meantime, I would suggest removing the extra parenthesis when copying the generated markdown code.

Best Regards
