Code Search and Navigation

Body

There's no straightforward way to view all repositories I contribute to (where I'm added as a collaborator but don't own). Currently I have to:

• Search manually each time
• Dig through my notification history
• Ask repository owners for links

What I need:

A dedicated section or quick access button (similar to "Your repositories") that shows all repositories where I'm listed as a contributor/collaborator, regardless of ownership or organization membership.

Why it matters:

In 2026, this is a basic feature that should be built-in. Many developers work on client projects or shared repos where they're collaborators but not owners. There should be a single place to find all of these without friction.

Current workarounds are insufficient:

• Profile repositories tab → only shows owned repos
• Search → slow and tedious
• GitHub CLI → not practical for quick access on the website
