How it works

  • 1

    PR lifecycle

    Thread message and emoji are posted for each PR event - approve/reject/request changes/merge/decline
    Emojis provide high-level overview of team’s PRs state

    • ✅ - PR is approved
    • 🟢 - build passed
    • 🏁 - PR is merged 
    • ⛔ - reject
    • 🔴 - build failed
    • 🗑️ - PR is deleted (declined, closed)

    Author is reminded if PR is rejected or build is failed

    Build status success/failure

    Message and emoji are posted when:

    • Build starts
    • Build succeeds
    • Build fails

    Ensure fair reviews distribution

    Auto-assign reviewers spread the load so one team member isn't doing all the reviews, preventing bottlenecks when they’re on vacation and encouraging everyone to get involved in code reviews.

    Involve a teammate to help PR move forward

    Escalation reminders prevent stale reviews by notifying your team leads or PMs when a PR is delayed, mimicking the real-life action of reaching out to a PM without the nervousness and potential strain on team relations.

  • Plus flagged review

    No-one likes to @all even for important reviews

    Flagged review reminders help keep important PRs on everyone's radar, automating the manual process of nudging team members to ensure critical reviews get the attention they need promptly.
