Project context
Read the repository that is already in front of you.
Starboard uses visible language, topics, repository metadata, and detected tools. It does not claim access to private code.
01 Project-aware GitHub discovery
Find open-source tools that fit the project in front of you.
Paste a public GitHub repository. Starboard finds similar projects, then shows which tools those peers use and the exact repository evidence behind each suggestion.
Browse the public catalogCataloged previews need no account
Uncataloged repositories use your signed-in GitHub session. Nothing is saved until you explicitly connect a project.

A route to investigate, not a claim that one tool is universally best.
02 Why project context matters
Popular is easy to find. Relevant takes context.
Trending lists answer what is attracting attention. Starboard asks a narrower question: what do projects like yours use, and what evidence supports taking a closer look?
03 The evidence ledger
A recommendation you can audit.
Each layer narrows the search while keeping enough context for you to challenge the result.
Grounded peers
Compare against similar public repositories.
Semantic, lexical, language, topic, and tool signals produce a bounded peer set. Sparse results are labeled as broader fallbacks.
Tool support
See which peers supply the evidence.
Tool suggestions name their supporting repositories and detection confidence, with direct links for manual review.
04 Two useful modes
Explore in public. Add your context when it helps.
Public watersNo account for cataloged projects
Discover repositories and inspect tool evidence.
Search the seeded public catalog, open repository details, browse Tool Intelligence, and preview projects Starboard already knows.
- Semantic and lexical repository discovery
- Language, tool, and growth filters
- Visible detection source and confidence
Personal workspaceGitHub sign-in
Connect a project or clean up a crowded star library.
Choose your own public projects for saved recommendations, then search and organize the repositories you have starred over time.
- Saved public-project connections
- Lists, tags, notes, and starred-repository sync
- No GitHub write access
