Desktop (Pro)
Open Similar / Recommended in repository detail.- Needs network access to the recommendation service
- Direct uses Starcat’s own recommendation path over offline-trained results; existing entry points and cache behavior stay the same
- Non-Pro hits the paywall
Browser extension
GitHub repo pages can show a read-only recommendation list (usually capped). Requires the desktop app plus Integrations. See Extension features.Notes
Suggestions are “maybe related”, not a dependency audit. Read the README and license before you Star. An unreachable service can look empty or stale. That is not proof that no similar project exists.Related
