Octobox
Manage your GitHub notifications effectively. Archive threads when done, search and filter by status or type, and see live updates for issues, PRs, and CI.
If you're overwhelmed by hundreds of GitHub notifications and worry about losing track of important issues, this tool provides a dedicated inbox to untangle them. It introduces an "archived" state, allowing you to mark notifications as "done" and clear your view. If any activity occurs on an archived thread, issue, or pull request, it automatically returns to your inbox so you never miss an update.
Stay focused with powerful search and filtering capabilities. You can sort notifications by:
- Repository or organization
- Notification type (issue, PR) and action
- CI status and reason
- Author and assignee
By installing the GitHub app, you can enhance your notifications with live information, including issue/PR status, CI status, and labels, keeping everything up-to-date in one place. The tool is free for open source projects, with paid plans available for private repositories. You can also self-host the application for complete control.
