GitHub Stars Lists

Sync GitHub official Stars Lists; how they differ from local tags

What they are

GitHub offers Stars Lists (official Stars grouping; follow GitHub’s current product). Starcat syncs your Lists into the sidebar for local browsing.

What you can do in Starcat

Capability	Description
Sync and view	Lists created or edited on GitHub appear in the sidebar
Open a list	Click a List name to see its repos
Batch move	Multi-select may offer Move to List (follows the app)

List structure is authoritative on GitHub; do not equate Starcat tags with Lists.

Tags vs Lists

	Stars List	Starcat tag
Stored	GitHub	This Mac
Cross-device	With GitHub account	Local only (cloud sync not shipped yet)
Customization	Relatively simple grouping	Finer control: color, icon, and more
Visibility	Per List public/private settings	Local only

Suggestion: use Lists when you want grouping aligned with GitHub on the web; use tags for personal fine-grained classification.
