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

A cross-platform tool that synchronizes GitHub-related DNS entries into the system hosts file to speed up or fix GitHub access. It ships as a desktop GUI app, a CLI, and a server mode that serves hosts files over HTTP for other devices.

Use cases

  • speed up github access by syncing hosts
  • fix github being slow or unreachable
  • auto-update hosts file on a schedule
  • self-host a hosts server for my lan devices
  • download github hosts file as txt or
  • manage github hosts from the command line

When to choose

  • you need faster or more reliable access to github.com and its domains
  • you want an automated, cross-platform hosts sync tool with GUI and CLI options
  • you want to serve hosts entries to multiple devices from one self-hosted endpoint

When to avoid

  • you need a general-purpose VPN or proxy rather than hosts-based domain mapping
  • your environment forbids modifying the system hosts file or requires centralized DNS management
  • you need DNS-level filtering or ad blocking beyond GitHub domains
