forgithub

From Jan Wilmake's personal knowledge base

forgithub

forgithub is a family of GitHub-focused developer tools built by Jan_Wilmake, launched in December 2025. The tools provide improved GitHub interfaces and LLM-ready context generation, building on the foundations of uithub.

Tools

Dashboard for GitHub (dashboard.forgithub.com)

A better personal homepage for GitHub, launched December 30, 2025. Features:

  • Repos, Open PRs, Review Requests, Starred Repos — all easily searchable and sortable
  • Fixes the problem that "pretty much the entire GitHub homepage is useless"
  • Fully open source: github.com/janwilmake/dashboard-for-github

Context for GitHub (context.forgithub.com)

A LLM context tool that aggregates all repos relevant to you for use with AI, launched December 30, 2025.

Jan's framing: "Selling context is going to be a thing: one-time purchase of context or subscriptions of context that stays up-to-date on a particular topic."

githuq (githuq.com)

A chat interface for GitHub repositories — flip the 'b' to 'q' in any GitHub URL (github.com → githuq.com) to get a chat interface that uses the repo's README, tree, and agent instruction files as context. Launched March 19, 2026.

Philosophy

Jan articulated a vision around "selling context" in January 2026: "Selling context is going to be a thing: one-time purchase of context or subscriptions of context that stays up-to-date on a particular topic. High quality context. Context is king."

forgithub represents the GitHub slice of this vision — Jan's personal context around his own repositories and activity, made available to others.

In January 2026, Jan also shipped gcombinator — a URL-flip tool for Hacker News (change 'y' to 'g' in any ycombinator.com URL) that returns the full conversation thread in a clean format.
