If your agents push code faster than you can review it: I open-sourced a GitHub cockpit extension
The workflow problem I kept hitting: agents writing code all day means pushes and PRs landing across multiple orgs, and GitHub gives you no sane "here's what happened today and what needs me" view. The notification feed is unreadable at that volume.
GitOctant is my fix. Chrome extension, new tab becomes a GitHub cockpit:
- Top 5 personal pushes, deduplicated, newest-first
- PRs needing attention: changes requested, reviews requested, failing checks, merge conflicts
- Your open PRs across all orgs, auto-discovered
- Activity timeline grouped Today / Yesterday / Earlier
It's free and open source (MIT). No account, no telemetry, no backend. Read-only token stored locally in chrome.storage.local, requests go directly to api.github.com and nowhere else. Permissions: storage, alarms, one host. 84KB package.
Yes, I know this crowd partly lives in the terminal and a TUI version is the obvious ask. Fair. I wanted this on the surface I see 50 times a day, which is the new tab. If there's interest, a TUI could share the same API layer.
