github unstar
Bulk unstar GitHub repos, the tool that GitHub never build.
Love how clean the local web UI is. Spinning up something this focused with the gh CLI instead of overbuilding it shows real restraint.
would love a search or filter bar so i can narrow down to specific repos before unstarring them in bulk, especially when my starred list is huge.

Hey Product Hunt 👋
I kept starring repos “for later” and ended up with a graveyard of hundreds I’d never open again.
GitHub only allow unstaring one repo at a time.
So I built GitHub Unstar: a local-only web UI on top of the GitHub CLI.
