forky is a CLI tool that you can use to synchronize your forks with upstream repositories. You can select more than one repository at a time and synchronize them. To use forky you'll need to create a Github's personal access token.
forky detect the default branch(main, master, or trunk whatever it is) of your forked repository and will try to compare it with the upstream repository's same-named branch to find how many commits behind by your forked repositories are. Then it will show available forks which left behind the upstream repositories to synchronize.
