Repository Indexing

Index any public GitHub repository for analysis

AI Chat API

Ask questions about any indexed repository via API

Developer-First

Simple one-liner API to start immediately

GitHub Chat API

GitHub Chat API gives you programmatic access to chat with any public GitHub repository. Just two simple endpoints to integrate AI-powered code understanding into your workflow.

Repository Indexing

First, index a GitHub repository to analyze its codebase.

POST https://api.github-chat.com/verify

1curl -X POST https://api.github-chat.com/verify \
2  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
3  -d '{"repo_url": "https://github.com/hacksider/Deep-Live-Cam"}'

This endpoint processes the repository and makes it available for chat interactions.

Chat with Repository

Ask questions about the repository and receive detailed AI responses.

POST https://api.github-chat.com/chat/completions/sync

1curl -X POST https://api.github-chat.com/chat/completions/sync \
2  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
3  -d '{
4    "repo_url": "https://github.com/hacksider/Deep-Live-Cam",
5    "messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "What is the core tech stack?"}]
6  }'

The messages array can contain conversation history for multi-turn conversations.

3. Response Format

Responses from the API include detailed information structured in a way that separates the reasoning, answer, and source context.

Rationale

The AI's explanation of how it approached the question, showing its reasoning process.

Answer

The formatted answer to the query, with Markdown support for rich text formatting.

Contexts

Repository content used by the AI to generate the response, with metadata about each file.

GitHub Chat vs GitHub Copilot

While both tools help developers understand code, they serve different purposes and complement each other.

Feature	GitHub Chat	GitHub Copilot
Purpose	Repository-wide code understanding	File-based coding assistance
Knowledge Source	Full repository analysis (500MB limit)	Limited open file context
Primary Use	Explore & understand existing codebases	Generate & complete new code
API Access	✅ Simple REST API	❌ No public API
