Glint

CI status at a glance

A tray-resident GitHub CI status dashboard — no more opening the browser to check if CI passed. When something fails, drill down to the failing job ▸ step without ever opening a web page.

Push, switch away, and relax: it will shout when things go red, and open it to fix.

One dot in your menu bar — aggregated worst status across every repo you watch.

Why Glint

Everything you need to stop babysitting CI in a browser tab.

Glanceable tray

One dot for every repo you monitor — aggregated worst status in five states: green, red with a failure count, orange while running, gray with no CI, purple on API errors.

Actionable failures

Drill straight to the failing job ▸ step with duration and a direct log link — copy the error excerpt without ever opening a browser.

Notifications that behave

An instant alert when a build fails, a gentle note when it recovers — each toggleable, in your language. Clicking one brings the panel up.

Zero-config sign-in

Authorize once through the browser with GitHub's Device Flow — the same as gh auth login. No tokens to create or paste; the token lives only in your system keychain.

Private by design

Runs entirely on your machine: no server, no account, no telemetry. ETag conditional requests keep you comfortably below GitHub's rate limits.

Lightweight & bilingual

Built on Tauri 2 with the system WebView — a tiny footprint, no Electron. The UI speaks English and Chinese, following your system language.

Up and running in a minute

No config files, no token juggling.
