What it is AI-extracted, prompt v1, taxonomy v1, 2026-08-30, confidence not recorded

A web application that finds the most active forks of a GitHub repository using the GitHub API. It is hosted as a static site and can also be used as a bookmarklet from any GitHub repo page.

Use cases

  • find active forks of a github repo
  • see which fork is ahead of upstream
  • identify maintained forks of an abandoned project
  • compare fork commits ahead and behind the parent repo
  • quickly check fork activity from a github page via bookmarklet

When to choose

  • you need to discover which fork of a project is actively maintained
  • you want a zero-install browser tool for comparing GitHub forks

When to avoid

  • you need fork analytics beyond ahead/behind commit counts
  • you need an API or CLI integration rather than a web UI
  • you require guaranteed long-term maintenance, as the project is seeking new maintainers
