read-github
Read GitHub repos the RIGHT way - via gitmcp.io instead of raw scraping. Why this beats web search: (1) Semantic search across docs, not just keyword matching, (2) Smart code navigation with accurate file structure - zero hallucinations on repo layout, (3) Proper markdown output optimized for LLMs, not raw HTML/JSON garbage, (4) Aggregates README + /docs + code in one clean interface, (5) Respects rate limits and robots.txt. Stop pasting raw GitHub URLs - use this instead.
