Purpose
After you select a repository, the right pane shows that repo’s README, tags, notes, Star / ingest / subscribe, plus Pro Health, Insights, similar repos, and AI.Right detail: metadata header, actions, README with Mermaid or video

README
A WebView renders GitHub Flavored Markdown, including images and anchors. Mermaid renders locally and falls back to source on failure.
Videos in GitHub READMEs play with native controls. Playback is manual; it stops when you switch repos or close detail. Unsupported sources still open in the browser.
Settings → General → Open repository docs in the app opens Markdown links that point at this repository in a separate window. The default is still the browser; ⌘-click always uses the browser.

Unstar
Unstarring from detail calls the GitHub API and cannot be undone in one tap inside Starcat. Batch: Batch operations.Notes
- README is cached; a file you just changed on GitHub may need a refresh.
- In-app docs only follow same-repo links. External URLs still use the browser.
