🥔 repotato

Share, discover, try out, and support amazing GitHub repositories - all from your terminal while Claude works.

A daily feed of GitHub repos you browse in your terminal, one at a time.

Install

npx repotato

If you're discovering repos

• Browse the feed: npx repotato
• Upvote a repo with ↑ — it stars the repo on GitHub.
• Ask / try: press a to ask repotato's assistant to explain a repo, install
  and let you try it, or uninstall it cleanly — powered by your local Claude.
• Press f for the daily leaderboard (Today / Yesterday).
• Open a specific repo: npx repotato open <slug>

Voting & Repo of the Day

• One upvote = one ⭐. Upvoting stars the repo on GitHub; there's no downvote —
  removing your upvote just un-stars it. The count is always the server's truth.
• Each repo competes within its launch day. The top 3 by votes that day earn
  🥇 / 🥈 / 🥉 Repo of the Day — frozen for good once the day closes (UTC).

If you made a repo

• Launch it: run npx repotato and press L (or /repotato launch).
• Every upvote it gets is a real ⭐ on your repo.
• Add the badge (from your page on the web): it shows your repo name + live
  upvotes and auto-upgrades to the 🥇 Repo of the Day medal on the day you
  place top-3. One badge — paste it once, it updates itself.
