We already have an extension in the Store that covers the same core functionality:
Both extensions provide a fast way to find and navigate GitHub repositories from Raycast, with frequently or previously accessed repositories surfaced for quicker access.
The existing extension already provides:
- Searching GitHub repositories, including personal and organization repositories
- Keeping track of previously visited repositories
- Opening repositories directly in GitHub
- Quick access to pull requests, issues, projects, wikis, and releases
- Opening repositories in a Web IDE or cloning them in VS Code
- GitHub OAuth, PAT, and GitHub Enterprise support
This PR adds some useful capabilities:
- A unified personal/collaborator/organization repository list
- Sorting by updates, stars, issues, pull requests, and frecency
- Additional shortcuts to Actions, Insights, Settings, Dependents, and upstream repositories
- Optional reuse of existing browser tabs
However, these appear to be natural enhancements to the existing repository-search and navigation workflow rather than enough differentiation for a separate extension.
Could we consider contributing the expanded sorting, repository shortcuts, and browser-tab reuse functionality to the existing extension instead?
This would help avoid duplication and keep GitHub repository navigation consolidated in one extension.

I believe they have different focuses.
My extension, on the other hand, focuses on personal repositories, offering faster and cached queries, displaying all of a user's repositories, and allowing filtering. It doesn't require users to actively search; it aims to make it easier for developers to view the repositories they maintain. I think it can serve as a new extension with a different experience. |
Description
A lightweight personal GitHub repository navigator.
