Your GitHub dashboard, one glance away. Monitor repositories, track CI/CD pipelines, and watch deployments — all from your Stream Deck.

GitHub Utilities puts the metrics that matter right at your fingertips. No more switching to browser tabs to check build status or star counts. Every button updates automatically, so your Stream Deck always shows the latest data.

🔢 Repo Stats

Turn any Stream Deck key into a live repository dashboard. Pick a stat, pick a repo — done.

• Stars — stargazer count with gold accent

• Open Issues — issue count with green accent

• Forks — fork count with blue accent

• Watchers — watcher count with purple accent

• Pull Requests — open PR count with green accent

• Language — primary language with salmon accent

• Size — repository size (auto-formatted KB/MB/GB)

• License — license type display

• Default Branch — branch name display

• Visibility — public/private status

Short press cycles through stat types on the fly. Long press opens the repository in your browser. Text too long? It scrolls automatically with a smooth marquee animation.

⚙️ Workflow Status

Monitor GitHub Actions workflows and deployments in real time.

• Latest run status — see success, failure, running, queued, cancelled, and more at a glance

• Color-coded icons — green for success, red for failure, yellow for in-progress, blue for queued, purple for deploying

• Deployment tracking — active deployments show a dedicated view with environment name

• Smart filtering — optionally filter by workflow file, branch, or deployment environment

• Press to refresh — instant status update on key press

14 distinct status states, each with its own icon and color, so you always know exactly what's happening.

🔀 PR Counter & 🐛 Issue Counter
