✨ New in 0.7.3 · see what myGeeKy knows about you · send ideas with 💡

Your corner of GitHub,
for research.

myGeeKy reads your CV, your repos and your ORCID & Google Scholar papers, then shows you the people, projects, papers and pulse of your field, in one small glass panel on the edge of your screen. It only suggests. It never acts for you.

$pip install mygeeky

Free and open source (MIT) · v0.7.3 · Windows installer, or pip on Windows, Linux and macOS

Three myGeeKy panel tabs: People, what myGeeKy knows about you, and research rising in your field

What it does

One profile. Your whole field.

Your CV, repos, ORCID/OpenAlex and Google Scholar papers power everything, so it's matched to your research, not a generic popularity list.

👥

People worth following

Researchers who share your work and are likely to follow you back, plus domain experts who rarely follow anyone. Celebrities, mass-followers and dormant accounts are skipped.

Projects that want you

Starter issues, and maintainers who merge outside PRs.

The pulse

Your field's repos as a daily stock race.

It learns what you're into NEW

Every click, follow, star and fork tunes every list, and 🔭 20% always stays open for new territory, so you never end up in a bubble.

Signals, without words

Lives quietly on the edge of your screen

Always on top, in three glass themes. Click a tab, or just watch.

Research NEW

The papers behind the code, and the people behind the papers

From OpenAlex, matched to your own research topics.

  • Papers in your field gaining citations fastest, measured in citations per month
  • New tools whose code is on GitHub. Click a paper to see its repo and the people working on it
  • A green P on any repo that has a published paper

News NEW

What's new in your field, not everyone's

Fresh items from arXiv, bioRxiv and Hacker News, kept only when they genuinely match your interests: two of your terms, or one exact phrase.

  • Each item says why it's there ("matches gwas, fine mapping")
  • 🔭 items from outside your bubble are marked, on purpose

How it learns

See what myGeeKy knows about you

The Model tab draws it as a living map: you in the middle, your research field around you, what you've been into lately pulsing further out, and today's new territory on the edge.

  • Clicks teach it a little, stars and forks more, follows the most
  • Interests fade with a 30-day half-life, so it follows you as you change
  • A separate model learns who follows you back

Signals

Say hi without words

👋📚🤝👀🔥

Signals travel through a small public repo on your own GitHub, so there's no server, no text and nothing to moderate. When it's mutual, you get a 🤝 handshake.

  • Emoji only, from a fixed set: no spam, no harassment
  • Public and transparent, and you can block anyone
  • Opt-in, with its own token that can write to one repo only

Install, set up, and a tour

From a fresh Windows PC to your first suggestions.

Privacy & trust

Suggest-only, by design

There is no follow, star or fork code in myGeeKy at all. And it uses two GitHub tokens with very different powers. Setup checks what each can actually do, and refuses one that doesn't fit its job.

🔍 Token 1 · read-only

Reads public profiles, repos and followers.
Repositories
Public repositories
Permissions
Followers: Read-only
Refused if
it can write to any repo, can follow people, or is your Signals token

✍️ Token 2 · Signals (optional)

Writes your mygeeky-beacon repo, and nothing else.
Repositories
Only mygeeky-beacon
Permissions
Contents: Read and write
Refused if
it can't write to the beacon, or is token 1 again

🔑 Keyring only

Tokens live in your OS keyring (Credential Locker, Keychain, Secret Service), never in a file, never logged.

🏠 Your data stays yours

No server, no account, no telemetry. Sync, if you want it, goes to a private GitHub repo you own.

📖 Open source

MIT-licensed and on GitHub, with tests. Read exactly what it does, and change it if you like.
