Crickets turns GitHub noise into health check

Crickets is a lightweight GitHub org dashboard for engineering managers and tech leads who want a fast read on repo health without constantly pinging the team. It highlights unassigned bugs, stale PRs, pending replies, zombie issues, production errors with no linked ticket, tech stack versions, bus factor, and repo hygiene, then lets you close the tab and move on.

// ANALYSIS

Hot take: this is less about “tracking work” and more about replacing status-chasing with a daily exception report. That’s a useful wedge if it stays sharp and low-noise.

–Strong fit for eng leads who live in GitHub but don’t want to babysit it.
–The repo-health framing is broader than issue triage, which makes it more sticky than a simple inbox or PR dashboard.
–The value proposition depends on ruthless signal quality; too many false positives and it becomes another tab to ignore.
–The “no code changes, no agents, no noise” positioning is clear and credible for cautious orgs.
