How it works
Four steps from sign-in to insight.
Click any step to learn more.
Sign in
One click. GitControl asks for read access to your repos, orgs, packages, and projects. Your token is encrypted on the server the moment the callback completes.
Why it's worth running
Built around the workflows you already do.
02
Stay under your rate limit.
Every Octokit call routes through a per-user Redis envelope with ETag revalidation. A 304 refreshes the TTL — no body refetch, no wasted requests.
ETag revalidation03
Track health, not just code.
Repo health score, sync-status pill, dependency tracker with severity filter, and auto-issue creation for outdated packages — surfaced where you already work.
Health · Deps · Sync04
A layout that's actually yours.
Pin repos, reorder dashboard cards, pick grid or list view. Every preference persists in Postgres — not localStorage, not vendor settings.
Postgres-backed prefsSecurity & privacy
Tokens never leave your disk in plaintext.
Encrypted at rest
AES-256-GCM via node:crypto. Plaintext token column wiped post-handshake.
$ openssl rand -hex 32→ 64-char key · GCM auth tag
02 · userId-prefixed
Per-user isolation
Cache keys prefixed by userId. Octokit clients built per request, bound to one user's token.
u:{userId}:repo:{slug}03 · single-VPS
Your infrastructure
Single VPS. Only outbound calls go to api.github.com. Postgres + Redis stay on your box.
