Get GitHub repository details by owner/name or repository URL **Price:** 1 credit

- **Tool id:** `anysite-api-github-repos`
- **Provider:** [Anysite](/providers/anysite)
- **Job:** [Repos api github](/reference/jobs/api-github-repos) (`api.github.repos`)
- **Price:** $0.0036 per call. A call that fails at the provider costs $0.

## Inputs

| Name | Type | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `repo` | string | yes | Repository in 'owner/name' format or full GitHub URL. Example: "anthropics/anthropic-sdk-python" |
| `timeout` | integer | no | Max scrapping execution timeout (in seconds) |
| `x-request-id` | string | no |   |

## Output

The run's `result` holds the provider's answer. Signed in, `looot inspect anysite-api-github-repos` prints its fields.

## Run it

Every call needs your API token in `LOOOT_TOKEN`; [Sign in](/get-started/sign-in#use-the-token-in-scripts-and-agents) shows how to get one. Each run also needs a new idempotency key, so a retry never pays twice. With `wait: 30` the answer comes back inline when the run ends within 30 seconds. Otherwise you get the running run back: poll `GET /v1/runs/<runId>`.

Example input with placeholder values:

<CodeGroup>

```bash curl
curl -X POST "https://api.looot.ai/v1/runs" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $LOOOT_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "Idempotency-Key: $(uuidgen)" \
  -d '{"endpointId":"anysite-api-github-repos","input":{"repo":"anthropics/anthropic-sdk-python"},"wait":30}'
```

```js JavaScript
const response = await fetch("https://api.looot.ai/v1/runs", {
  method: "POST",
  headers: {
    Authorization: `Bearer ${process.env.LOOOT_TOKEN}`,
    "Content-Type": "application/json",
    "Idempotency-Key": crypto.randomUUID(),
  },
  body: JSON.stringify({
    endpointId: "anysite-api-github-repos",
    input: {
      repo: "anthropics/anthropic-sdk-python",
    },
    wait: 30,
  }),
});
const run = await response.json();
console.log(run.status, run.result);
```

```python Python
import os
import uuid

import requests

response = requests.post(
    "https://api.looot.ai/v1/runs",
    headers={
        "Authorization": f"Bearer {os.environ['LOOOT_TOKEN']}",
        "Idempotency-Key": str(uuid.uuid4()),
    },
    json={
        "endpointId": "anysite-api-github-repos",
        "input": {
            "repo": "anthropics/anthropic-sdk-python",
        },
        "wait": 30,
    },
    timeout=90,
)
run = response.json()
print(run["status"], run.get("result"))
```

To let looot pick among every provider of this job instead, send `job:api.github.repos` as `endpointId`; see [the job page](/reference/jobs/api-github-repos).
