Can you make sure you have given the Railway App bot access to your repositories? GitHub Settings -> Applications -> Railway App -> Configure -> Repository access. Then please go into your Railway account and unlink and relink the GitHub integration.

Same issue. The repo list is simply empty. Permissions are granted to Railway. There's nothing we can do. It is broken.

If the repos are under a GitHub organization, the org owner must separately approve the Railway GitHub App installation for that org at github.com/settings/installations. If they're under your personal account, try fully uninstalling the Railway App from GitHub Installations (not just toggling permissions), then reinstall it from your Railway account settings by relinking GitHub.

I found the issue: Railway does not look for repos that I am added to as a collaborator, it looks only for my own direct repos.

I know for a fact that Railway could be updated to look for all accessible repos. Other services do that, so I know it is possible.

The repo picker shows repositories where the Railway GitHub App is installed, which means repos owned by your account (or an org that has approved the app). For repos where you're a collaborator, the repo owner would need to install the Railway GitHub App on their account and grant it access to those repos. Alternatively, you can fork the repo to your own account or deploy using a Docker image or the CLI with railway up.
