... hunters Small but satisfying drop today: octoscope 0.24.2 makes the footer tell the truth about which keys actually work. octoscope

... Quick backstory on the "why": octoscope's repo drill-in shows a 12-month star-history sparkline, and that reads GitHub's stargazers endpoint which GitHub has been tightening (a scoped token is now required) and which throws the odd 5xx. The catch: one failed star-history call used to abort the whole detail view. Not great. Now it's best-effort. If star history can't load, octoscope

... octoscope v0.23.0 Polish & reliability octoscope

... octoscope is a terminal dashboard for your GitHub account: followers, stars, PRs, issues, languages and CI, all at a glance, auto-refreshed, and read-only. New in v0.22.0: full NO_COLOR support. Set NO_COLOR in your environment, or pass --no-color, and octoscope

... octoscope's Repos tab has had pinned repos for a while now a sticky section up top for the handful you actually live in. This release gives the Issues tab the same treatment. Press P on any issue (or pick Pin from the space action menu) and it sticks to the top, in the order you pinned it, across refreshes and restarts. It composes with everything else you already do: the sort cycle (s) reorders only the rest ... ... stay exactly where you put them. As always it stays read-only public GitHub, your existing gh login or a $GITHUB_TOKEN, no mutations. brew upgrade gfazioli/tap/octoscope Comment from Giovambattista Fazioli(@gfazioli): @hosseinyazdi  thanks Hossein, really appreciate it octoscope

... Shai-Hulud / Miasma worm has been quietly pushing itself into people's GitHub repos including real, well-known OSS projects where it auto-runs the moment you open the repo in an AI editor (Claude / Cursor / Gemini / VS Code) or install it, then harvests your tokens. It lives in the GitHub source, not the npm registry, so a lockfile audit never sees it. octoscope

... honesty fixes this round: octoscope now tells you when a newer version is out, and it counts your whole account instead of just the first 100 repositories. The update notice On launch and hourly after that, on its own timer separate from the dashboard refresh octoscope

... made the app meaningfully steadier underneath. It does the same things v0.16.0 did it just behaves the same in hour eight as in minute one. The self-multiplying API traffic, gone This is the one that actually mattered. octoscope's auto-refresh used to be able to spawn an extra timer chain every time you hit `r` or changed the interval. Nothing visible but over a long session those chains stacked, and the app quietly accelerated its own polling ... ... written back to your config. Refresh traffic is flat and predictable for as long as the app stays open. Errors that read like sentences GitHub's GraphQL gateway throws the occasional 502, and HTTP/2 streams sometimes die mid-flight. octoscope

... offline, with a link to the full release notes. Keyboard-shortcut overlay (press ?) a full keymap grouped by area, finally inside the app instead of just the footer. Upgrade: brew upgrade gfazioli/tap/octoscope Thanks to everyone running it and if octoscope saves you time, a sponsorship genuinely helps keep it maintained. Comment from Giovambattista Fazioli(@gfazioli): @aarav_pittman  Really appreciate that, Aarav and glad to hear you ve been using it! Which of the three additions is most useful ... ... shortcut overlay (?) was probably the most requested one. Comment from Aarav Pittman(@aarav_pittman): Great launch! I ve been using Octoscope

... Three fixes, all worth grabbing: Privacy --public-only (the screenshot/screen-share mode) now also hides private watched repos and private review-requests. If you ever demo or stream octoscope, this is the one to update for. Config safety toggling public-only or saving from the in-app settings panel could silently drop your pinned_repos / watch_repos from the config file. Fixed: every save now preserves them. Watched repos they no longer disappear from the Repos tab on accounts with ...

... additions that close the loop between watching (what v0.14.0 widened) and noticing (what's actually waiting for your attention). One feature lands on screen, one in your macOS notification center; both keep octoscope read-only. Review-requests inbox The PRs tab now shows a sticky "PRs awaiting your review" section above your authored list whenever someone has requested you as a reviewer. Same partition idiom as Repos pinned/watched (v0.13/v0.14): muted rule separator between segments, cursor walks both, sort cycle only ... ... split your day between "PRs you authored" and "PRs you're meant to review"? Curious if anyone has a watch_repos config they curated specifically because they review for a team there. Comment from Georges(@georges99226084): Just discovered octoscope

... recent release tag plus its age (v1.2.3 3d). The s sort cycle gains a "release" entry. No extra round-trip piggybacked onto the existing parallel CI query. Watched repos (external) Add to your config: watch_repos = [ "charmbracelet/bubbletea", "cli/cli", ] and octoscope renders a dedicated Watched section under the Repos tab, separated from your owned repos by a muted rule. Same row idiom CI dot, language, stars, latest release column but populated from the GraphQL API in parallel with the dashboard refresh ... ... from the release page: https://github.com/gfazioli/octo...

Pinned repos Press P on any Repos row to pin it. Pinned repos stick to a sticky section at the top of the list, ordered exactly as you want, separated from ...

... Following up on what @sk_uxpin asked for on the v0.11.0 launch thread: you can now read pull-request diffs inside octoscope. Press Enter on any PR for the drill-in. Press f for a full-screen list of the changed files. Enter on a file row opens its unified diff with syntax highlighting chroma's diff lexer, monokai palette, the universally recognised red/green for - / + lines and a scrollable viewport so a 400-line patch fits without pushing anything ... ... solve when every hint looks the same, your eye has to read the whole line to find the key. Accent-on-key, muted label was the pattern I kept seeing in tools like lazygit and k9s, so I figured octoscope

... biggest UX shift since I shipped octoscope. The drill-in pattern I prototyped for Repos in v0.10.0 now works on PRs and Issues too and it's bound to Enter , the universal TUI gesture for "go deeper". What you get when you press Enter on a row: PRs state chip (Open / Draft / Merged / Closed), markdown-rendered description, reviewers (requested + completed), checks summary, files changed, recent commits, labels, curated timeline. Issues state chip, markdown-rendered description, assignees, recent comments, labels, linked ... ... state classification, and async drill-in race conditions.
