Comment on Show HN: I built a chatbot that lets you talk to any GitHub repository

Comments

Doesn't the GitHub copilot do the same? What are the advantages of this?

Free, no need to clone the repo and on the web.

That is exactly what GH Copilot does - if you're subscribed to it, it adds an AI conversation button to any Github repo you visit in the browser. There's no need to clone the repo. However it's not free obviously...

it actually is free - the in-web chat is part of free tier, and I'm not aware of any limits. in-IDE use does have limits
