# GitHub CLI - Remote Analysis & Discovery Remote repository operations, codebase comparison, and code discovery without cloning. ## When to Use - Analyze repositories without cloning - Compare codebases side-by-side - Fetch specific files from any repo - Find trending repositories and code patterns - Search code across GitHub ## Quick Operations ### Fetch a file remotely ```bash gh api repos/OWNER/REPO/contents/path/file.ts --template '{{.content | base64decode}}' ``` ### Get directory listing ```bash gh api repos/OWNER/REPO/contents/PATH ``` ### Search code ```bash gh search code "pattern" --language=typescript ``` ### Find trending repos ```bash gh search repos --language=rust --sort stars --order desc ``` ## Compare Two Codebases Systematic workflow for comparing repositories to identify similarities and differences. **Example use**: "Compare solana-fm/explorer-kit and tenequm/solana-idls" ### Step 1: Fetch directory structures ```bash gh api repos/OWNER-A/REPO-A/contents/PATH gh api repos/OWNER-B/REPO-B/contents/PATH ``` If comparing a monorepo package, specify the path (e.g., `packages/explorerkit-idls`). ### Step 2: Compare file lists ```bash gh api repos/OWNER-A/REPO-A/contents/PATH -q '.[].name' gh api repos/OWNER-B/REPO-B/contents/PATH -q '.[].name' ``` Compare the output of each command to identify files unique to each repo and common files. ### Step 3: Fetch key files for comparison Compare package dependencies: ```bash gh api repos/OWNER-A
