Can this help in explaining how the code works, its schematics or HLD of a given github repo ?
No this currently only answers questions from the GitHub graphql API.

Same thoughts
We pull data from the GitHub API which includes data that that is not available from GitHub.com pages. Currently only PR, Issues, Commit and Star data is being loaded. You can also read more here https://medium.com/relta/github-assistant-49ae388ad758
There will new data from the graphql API added over time. Would love your feedback on which data you like to see added https://docs.github.com/en/graphql

Maybe a better question: What questions could be answered with your service, that could not be answered with just cURL + Git + the GitHub API?

#14Pretty nifty, is Relta going to be OSS as well?
Yes in the future. We share the source code in both commercial and non-commercial engagements already. Drop me a line at amir [at] relta.dev if interested.

I am building an AI Slack Moderator bot [0] as a side project. I was thinking that this could be a cool intermediate layer to allow a user to ask questions about moderation logs. However I am not ready to build this for now. Feel free to add me to an email list for people who want to know when you OSS it down the line.

Great question! The purpose of github-assistant is to showcase the technologies that make it easy to build a tool/feature like this, not necessarily for it to be a stand-alone service. With dlt/Relta/LangGraph/assistant-ui we spin this up in about 10 days. For example:
- The GitHub graphql API limits to 100 items to be queried at a time and has pretty opaque secondary rate limits. Building this with cURL would take effort. dlt handles all this complexity to set up a robust pipeline by providing a connector to the GitHub API. - Creating semantic layers manually from a relational dataset and leveraging it in a text-to-sql pipeline to prevent hallucinations (similar to those we highlighted in our Medium post) would take lots of manual effort, which Relta streamlines. - Creating a chat front-end with charts was made easy by assistant-ui
Hope this makes sense.

#17I really like the UI, great work, I have to dig through the code :) thanks for sharing!
