Octobox

Say goodbye to notification nightmares with Octobox, the superhero app that swoops in to rescue you from the chaos of GitHub alerts! Imagine a world where you can sip your coffee without the dread of a notification avalanche. Octobox brings that zen to your developer life, with a nifty 'archived' state for notifications that says 'I'm done with you!' But wait, there's more! If that issue or PR you thought was dead comes back to life, Octobox zaps it right back into your inbox. It's like having a personal assistant who's obsessed with organization. Search, filter, and slice through notifications by all the things that matter: repo, org, type, you name it. Stay in sync with the heartbeat of your projects with real-time updates on statuses, labels, and the ever-important CI status. Open source heroes get this digital sidekick for free, while private project crusaders can unlock supercharged notifications for a few gold coins. Hosted on RepoCloud, where your wallet can relax, Octobox is the trusty utility belt tool for devs aiming to conquer the codeverse with grace and poise.

Octobox

Benefits

  • Efficient Notification Management
  • Octobox helps you manage your GitHub notifications efficiently, freeing up more time for you to focus on your projects. It adds an extra 'archived' state to each notification so you can mark it as 'done'. If anything happens on an archived thread, issue or PR, Octobox will move it back into your inbox.
  • Stay Updated
  • With Octobox, you can keep your notifications up to date with issue/pull-request status, CI status, labels and more shown alongside basic title, organization, repo, and type information.
  • Enhanced Notifications
  • By installing the GitHub app, Octobox will pull basic public and private notification information and add live information on issue, PR, and CI status, labels, authors and more to your organization's notifications.

Features

  • Archiving
  • Octobox extends GitHub's notification model by providing an additional 'archived' status, much like Gmail's email client. Archived notifications will not appear in your inbox again unless the thread, issue or PR receives a new notification.
  • Starring
  • Octobox also adds a starred status to help you highlight important notifications with a star so you can come back and find them easily. Starred notifications are not social, they are more like bookmarks that GitHub stars.
  • Muting
  • Muting a notification will mark the notification as read, move it to the archive and ignore all further notifications from this thread, issue or PR. Muting also sets the thread to ignore:true ignoring further notifications on GitHub too.
  • Syncing
  • By default Octobox will synchronize every time you hit the synchronize button. You can set automatic refresh interval on the settings page.
  • Searching
  • Octobox's search bar supports various filter prefixes. Combine them together and with free text searches, for example: 'github enterprise type:issue owner:octobox reason:assign'. Many prefixes accept multiple arguments when separated by commas or passed twice.
