The primary manifest — the file an agent reads to learn what this artifact does.
An open-source skill for exploring GitHub repositories from any AI coding agent, using the gh CLI.
I really liked Amp's Librarian — a subagent that can search remote codebases on GitHub, read framework source code, trace dependencies, and answer architectural questions about any public (or private) repo. It's genuinely one of the best things about Amp (for me).
But I wanted that same capability in Claude Code, and I didn't want to spin up an MCP server or depend on a specific platform to get it. So I built gh-scout: a portable alternative that does Librarian-style GitHub exploration using the gh CLI you already have installed.
It works with Claude Code, Amp, or really any agent that can run shell commands.
