To my wondrous surprise, GitHub keeps all of an organizations repos around even if the organization is disbanded (yes, even the private ones). To get at them you need to use the API, however, or have all the names memorized.
Here’s my ~/.config/gh/config.yaml file with the repos alias in it. I was able to pull up all my old skilstak stuff with it.
