"Does the app already do this?" gets asked in Slack ten times a week, and the answer lives in a repo nobody in that channel can read.
What it does
- @mention it in a channel or DM → it answers from your actual codebase, not from a guess
- It watches the channels you choose and triages what lands there
- Something in the chatter is a real bug → it escalates it as a GitHub issue
- Signed Slack Events API, acknowledged in under 3 seconds, so Slack never shows a timeout
What it does not do
It never posts on someone's behalf, never DMs your team unprompted, and never closes the issues it files.
Honest note: beta — built and smoke-tested, not yet battle-hardened in a busy workspace.
Setup
clone → ./setup.sh → pick Slack → answer a few questions
~5 minutes. No server, no database, free.
