Everything needed to decide.

Failing checks with logs, merge conflicts, open threads, review state — one screen, painted from the local cache.

Webhook-aware. Locally cached.

Webhook markers trigger targeted GitHub refreshes, then WebSocket invalidations reload the open PR or queue from the refreshed local cache. Your own comments, reviews, and merges paint locally as pending while GitHub confirmation follows.

Frequently asked questions.

Does this replace GitHub?

No. Review in Cockpit; your changes go back to GitHub.

How does the local cache stay current?

Webhooks refresh changed PRs. Polling catches missed updates.

What goes through the live-update relay?

Change markers and Actions status—not PR contents or logs. Hosted by default; self-hosting is optional.

What should Linux users know?

The installer handles setup. Wayland uses XWayland; global shortcuts depend on your compositor.

How do I update or remove it?

Update with pr-cockpit update. For removal, see the platform instructions.
