GitHub infrastructure visualization tool

Create a tool that maps and explains complex GitHub infrastructure. Helps teams understand their repository architecture.

Why now

As GitHub's backend complexity grows, developers need better ways to visualize and optimize their repository networks.

Development teams often struggle to understand the relationships between their repositories, forks, and GitHub Actions runners. A visualization tool would generate interactive diagrams showing these connections and performance bottlenecks.

The tool would connect to GitHub's API to extract relationship data and present it through an intuitive interface. It could suggest optimizations for repo organization and CI/CD workflows.

Engineering managers at companies with complex GitHub setups would pay for this insight. The MVP could start with basic fork visualization before adding advanced analysis.

The biggest risk is GitHub potentially adding similar native features, though the tool could stay ahead with deeper analysis.
