Does gitclassic support accessing private GitHub repositories?

Accessing private GitHub repositories requires the PRO version, which uses GitHub OAuth for authentication to securely browse private repo contents alongside the standard public repository access.

How do I search and view file trees in a GitHub repo using a lightweight browser?

You can search and view file trees in a GitHub repo by modifying URL patterns in a lightweight, no-JavaScript browser, enabling rapid navigation of repository roots, file contents, and search queries.

Why is my AI agent slow when browsing github.com?

Browsing github.com can be slow for AI agents due to heavy client-side rendering, but switching to a server-rendered HTML browser optimizes the process and reduces load times to under 500ms.

What are the limitations of using a server-rendered GitHub repository browser?

A server-rendered GitHub repository browser is limited to reading public repositories unless a PRO version with GitHub OAuth is used, and it does not render dynamic client-side JavaScript features from the standard GitHub interface.
