Monitor GitHub with MrCron

MrCron mirrors GitHub commit activity, workflow failures, and open PR counts every 5 minutes so you can see repo health next to your errors and deploys.

How MrCron monitors GitHub

  • Recent commit count on the linked repo default branch.
  • Workflow run failure count in the last 24 hours.
  • Open pull request count per linked repository.
  • OAuth token refresh handled automatically so integrations stay live.
  • Workspace-wide roll-up: connect one GitHub account, auto-link every repo.
  • Alert rules that fire on workflow failures via any notification channel.

What you will see

Recent commits, workflow failures, open PR count per linked repo.

Auth flow: OAuth. Credentials are stored encrypted at rest with AES-256-GCM and never returned to your browser.

Frequently asked questions

How does MrCron connect to GitHub?
OAuth. You grant repo:read access, pick which repos to attach, and MrCron refreshes the token automatically on every sync.
Does MrCron read source code?
No. MrCron reads commit metadata, workflow-run summaries, and pull-request titles. Source code, diff content, and issue bodies are never fetched.
Can I connect a GitHub organization instead of a personal account?
Yes. The OAuth app supports org install. Once installed on the org, you can auto-link every repo at /integrations/github.
What triggers a workflow-failure alert?
The next sync sees a completed run with conclusion=failure. Configure an alert rule to route the count spike to any channel (email, Slack, Discord, webhook).
