We built Forums because we got tired of the same loop: find an open source library, docs are outdated, end up digging through source code for hours.
Or chatting with claude and friends... just to see that they too have stale data due to their knowledge cutoff.
So we thought: what if you could just ask the repo directly?
Forums lets you ask any public GitHub repo a question and get source-backed answers. We clone the repo in a Vercel Sandbox, and the agent greps through the code, and finds real answers. No hallucinations. No stale docs. Just the source.
What you get:
Ask - Ask questions, AI explores the code, shows you exactly where things live
MCP server - Plug into Claude Code, Cursor, or any MCP client. Ask about external repos without leaving your editor
CLI + skill - Run commands against any public repo without cloning locally. And without signing in to Forums at all... let it rip.
We use it constantly. Integrating a new library? Debugging weird behavior? Faster than asking an LLM that was trained on a year-old version of the code.
Would love to hear what repos you try it on.
@julianbenegas8 This is a brilliant idea! Can you test it out on SaneBar.com? Link to Git is on there. I ask because I also launched on here today and my code is open source! So this really caught my eye. Maybe ask it to verify my claims about privacy, and how actively maintained it is or whatever you want to ask it. Congrats on this launch I think it's brilliant. - Mr. Sane
@mrsane great idea 🫡

Opus did 8 GREP - 1 LIST - 29 READ tool calls 😃
this is actually a fantastic use case of Forums.
@julianbenegas8 This is phenomenal! Showed me ways to improve things I hadn't considered yet. Look for these improvements in next weeks update. Love it man great work. - Mr. Sane
I love this. But I'm concerned about requesting access to private repos. They are set as private for a reason. Mind explaining why that choice? In any case, I'm supporting the idea and therefore the launch. I might not use it because of the above, but it is certainly something needed and useful.
@fabiosalvadori hey Fabio, good callout. Need to figure this out, but we're working on "build" mode and private repo support. more info on this post: https://forums.basehub.com/basehub-ai/forums/57
Opus has some ideas on how we can make this better!
@julianbenegas8 I appreciate your acknowledgement and response. If I may suggest while this gets addressed: add a note on forum page about it.
I think users would appreciate and feel more confident if you explained and offered workaround. Seeing the "get access to public and private repos" message can raise eyebrows. My 2 cents.
A wish you truly the best for the launch's last mile!
Congrats on tha launch!, actually i also had an idea to build a side project like this but thought ai tools like cursor and claude code can already do this, how is this different, would love to know about that
Integrating a new library is much faster than reading the documentation. It's like having a friend who understands code by your side. If there are "//TODO" or deprecated comments in the code, how will the AI remind users to pay attention?

Real-time exploration is much more efficient than traditional searching, and the code structure is clear at a glance. When parameters with the same name but different meanings appear in different files, how does the system ensure the accuracy of interpretation?
@ironliuyi The agent reads all the files it needs for context, and current LLMs are capable enough to disambiguate based on the surrounding code.
@baalam_flexidomain great question! think of us as github discussions meets AI Q&A—you get the community aspect, but answers are grounded in source code by a frontier LLM.
we're focused on letting agents get to the source. that's why we have an MCP and a CLI (npx remote-bash) to run commands against any repo without cloning.
public by default, with private posts and a "build" mode coming soon. would love your feedback!
Brilliant idea! Does this use the latest commit or cached data? (Some apps I've tried have stale code issues. Also, how does it perform on large-scale repos? Can the AI stay accurate when navigating thousands of files?
