How this service works
Resolve whether a public GitHub branch exists and return its current head commit without cloning. Branch protection is null when the public API does not expose it. Base mainnet USDC
Output
Returns whether the specified branch exists in the public GitHub repository, the current head commit SHA for that branch, and a null branch protection field (since the public GitHub API does not expose protection rules without authentication).
Example use cases
Verify PR branch before merging
“Can you check if the branch fix/auth-token-refresh still exists in myorg/api-server and tell me what commit it's currently pointing to?”
CI pipeline branch health check
“Before we trigger the deploy, confirm that the release/2.4.0 branch exists in deployteam/platform and grab its latest commit SHA.”
Monitor open-source fork branch
“I want to know if the branch experiment/new-renderer is still live in torvalds/linux and what the current head commit is on it.”
Technical details
Endpoint
POSThttps://http--forest-gas-station-mainnet--lcjl27p8lmjs.code.run/repo/branch-state?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need a fast, lightweight check of a GitHub branch's existence and current head commit without the overhead of cloning or authenticating. Ideal for CI/CD pipelines, agent workflows that gate on branch state, or any scenario where you need to verify a branch tip on a public repository cheaply. Prefer this over full Git clone operations or heavier GitHub API wrappers when you only need branch existence and the latest commit SHA.
Side effects
- Branch does not exist — returns existence false with no commit data
- Repository not found or is private — API cannot access it and returns an error or empty result
- Malformed repository string (not owner/name pattern) — rejected by input validation
- Branch name exceeds 256 characters — rejected by schema validation
- GitHub API rate limiting — may result in transient errors or delayed responses
