Your extensions, in depth. An interactive browser for your installed gh extensions — with health indicators, update checks, extension management, and discovery.

gh extension install maxbeizer/gh-exts

gh exts                # launch interactive extension browser
gh exts <name>         # jump directly to the detail view for <name>
gh exts --outdated     # show only extensions with available updates
gh exts --browse       # browse and install new extensions from GitHub
gh exts --export       # export install script to stdout
gh exts --export-json  # export extensions as JSON
gh exts -h             # show help
gh exts -v             # show version

Pass a name to fuzzy-match against installed extensions. If exactly one matches, its README opens immediately. If multiple match, the picker opens pre-filtered.

gh exts contrib        # jumps straight to gh-contrib's README

Show only extensions that have newer versions available on GitHub:

gh exts --outdated
