In plain words
What is it for?
Building the binary, viewing recent GitHub work, using offline data, showing links, and enabling detailed API logging.
Why use it?
They explain how to build and run the program, choose its data source, and inspect activity for a selected time period.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

git-feed CLAUDE.md scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Project Overview

GitHub Feed is a Go CLI tool for monitoring GitHub pull requests and issues across repositories. It tracks contributions, reviews, and assignments with colorized output and real-time progress visualization.

The tool is also called "GitAI" in the README (branding name), but the binary is github-feed.

Build & Run

# Build the binary
go build -o github-feed .

# Run directly (fetches from GitHub API)
./github-feed

# Run with flags
./github-feed --time 3h        # Show items from last 3 hours
./github-feed --time 2d        # Show items from last 2 days
./github-feed --time 3w        # Show items from last 3 weeks
./github-feed --time 6m        # Show items from last 6 months (default: 1m)
./github-feed --time 1y        # Show items from last year
./github-feed --debug          # Show detailed API logging instead of progress bar
./github-feed --local          # Use local database instead of GitHub API (offline mode)
./github-feed --links          # Show hyperlinks underneath each PR/issue
./github-feed --ll             # Shortcut for --local --links (offline mode with links)
./github-feed --clean          # Delete and recreate the database cache
./github-feed --allowed-repos="owner/repo1,owner/repo2"  # Filter to specific repos

Configuration

The tool requires a GitHub Personal Access Token with repo and read:org scopes (not needed in --local mode). Configuration is loaded from:

  1. Environment variables: GITHUB_TOKEN or GITHUB_ACTIVITY_TOKEN, and GITHUB_USERNAME or GITHUB_USER
  2. Config file at ~/.github-feed/.env (automatically created on first run)

Database location: ~/.github-feed/github.db (automatically created on first run)

First Run: The tool automatically creates ~/.github-feed/ directory with:

  • .env file with template for credentials (permissions: 0600)
  • github.db database for caching GitHub data (permissions: 0666)
  • Directory permissions: 0755

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
