What’s living in the forks?

GitHub shows you that forks exist. forksplorer shows you what’s in them— a ranked list of real unmerged features from any repo’s fork graph, with AI summaries, diffs, and cherry-pick instructions.

01

“The fork already fixedit.”

You’re hitting a bug in a dependency. Someone solved it in a fork eight months ago and never got it merged. forksplorer surfaces the fix — diff, context, cherry-pick command.

02

“Your dependency is dead — here’s the living successor.”

Upstream went quiet. The fork graph knows which fork became the real successor. Supply-chain intelligence your security team can act on.

03

“Someone improved yourproject and never told you.”

Maintainers: there are unmerged gems sitting in your own fork graph right now. Pull-based discovery — nobody has to spam you with PRs.

Built for agents as much as humans.

Copilot and friends structurally can’t see across the fork trust boundary. forksplorer ships an MCP server from day one, so any AI agent can ask the fork graph directly:

get_fork_features — ranked unmerged features for a repoget_feature_diff — the actual diff, attributed + linkedget_apply_instructions — cherry-pick / patch commands

Every repo gets a page.
