Discover repositories from Nostr relays (NIP-34). Filter by pubkey or search term.

Get a single repository by ID or owner+name

Resolve repo by Nostr identity (npub or hex) and repo name. Returns cloneUrl (prefer git.gittr.space), cloneUrls, relays for location-agnostic use.

Full-text search across repository names and descriptions

Exact reverse lookup: given one or more forge URLs (GitHub, GitLab, Codeberg, Gitea, …) or github owner/repo shorthand, find Nostr kind-30617 announces with that source/forkedFrom. Returns npub + gittr URL so you can DM owners when the forge is unreachable. Does NOT fuzzy-match renamed slugs.

Alias for findReposBySource (exact forge URL → npub). Prefer findReposBySource for non-GitHub forges.

List repositories owned by the current user (from .nostr-keys.json)

Push files to git server (REQUIRES signing with privkey). Optional deletedPaths removes files or whole folders on the bare tip (same as gittr UI folder delete); allowTreeShrink defaults true when deletes are present.

Publish repository to Nostr (kind 30617) - REQUIRES signing

Publish repository state to Nostr (kind 30618) - REQUIRES signing

CREATE A REPO IN ONE CALL - Push files AND publish to Nostr. Best for agents! Auto-loads credentials from .nostr-keys.json.

Show whether Nostr keys are loaded (hex/npub only — never returns private key). Use first in a session.

Create a disposable TEST Nostr keypair and write .nostr-keys.json so all tools auto-load it. ASK THE USER FIRST — a keypair is a permanent Nostr identity. Without confirm:true this only returns the question to ask. Never overwrites real credentials unless force:true.

Fork an existing repository

Mirror a GitHub/GitLab repo to gittr.space

Discover open bounties (issues with bounty labels or Lightning funding)

Get file content without a full local clone. Tries gittr bridge file-content, then a few hardcoded GRASP /raw/ hosts. Not full Code-tab parity (no 30617 clone[] / repo-files for home remotes) — prefer bridgeListFiles after importRemoteToBridge/mirrorRepo.

Add maintainer on kind 30617 (republishes full announcement with updated maintainers tag — matches gittr UI)

List issues for a repository

Create an issue - REQUIRES signing

List pull requests for a repository

Create a pull request - REQUIRES signing

Create PR via gittr CLI - full flow including git push (RECOMMENDED for PRs)

Get public key from private key

Load Nostr credentials from .nostr-keys.json (for debugging)

Submit work on a bounty (claim it with PR/evidence)

Star a repo (NIP-25 kind 7 on the latest kind 30617 event: tags e+k+p, content +). Requires a published repo announcement on relays.

Unstar a repo (NIP-25 kind 7 on the 30617 event with content "-"). Same tags as starRepo.

List repos a user starred (kind 7 with #k 30617 and #e pointing at 30617 events; latest reaction per repo wins)

Watch a repo (NIP-51 kind 10018 followed-repos list — publishes full a tag set, same as gittr Watch button)

Unwatch a repo (republish kind 10018 without this repo)

List repos from your latest kind 10018 followed-repos event on relays

Get trending/popular repositories

Get contributors to a repository

Get branches for a repository

Get commit history for a repository

Not supported for UI release notes. For Zapstore/NIP-82 APK announce use announceSoftwareFromForgeRelease. For git tags use listReleases + publishRepoState.

List git tags from the bridge (refs/tags/*), not Zapstore software releases

Fetch latest public forge Release (GitHub/Codeberg/GitLab) and APK assets. Set hash:true to compute APK sha256 (slow; required before announce).

Announce Android app to Zapstore/NIP-82 catalog from a forge Release APK (kinds 32267/30063/3063). Same as gittr Code sidebar Announce app. Auto-loads .nostr-keys.json if privkey omitted.

NIP-09 kind 5 deletion for previously published NIP-82 app/release/asset event ids (does not delete the git repo).

Owner soft-delete for a NIP-34 repo: publish replaceable 30617 with deleted markers + NIP-09 kind 5 on a=30617:owner:repo (same as gittr Settings → Delete). Alias: deleteRepo.

Alias for softDeleteRepo — soft-delete a NIP-34 repository (owner only).

Low-level: publish NIP-82 events from an already-fetched forge payload (ok:true + hashed APK). Prefer announceSoftwareFromForgeRelease.
