Hey PH — I'm nijil, I built Gitash. The thing that made me build this: I found a good first issue on a repo I actually cared about, spent 20 minutes trying to figure out which files to touch, gave up, closed the tab. Then I tried asking ChatGPT. It gave me a detailed plan pointing to 3 files that don't exist in that repo. So Gitash pulls the actual file tree from GitHub and feeds it into the prompt. Every file it mentions is a file that's really there. That's the whole idea. You get: relevant files + why each matters, step-by-step guide for that specific issue, difficulty/effort estimate, prerequisites, testing notes, gotchas, and a suggested branch name with one-click Fork and PR links. Claude, GPT, or Gemini — your key, your browser, never hits our server. Free, MIT licensed. Curious what repos you try it on and whether the plans are actually useful. → https://www.gitash.space/
