PR Dashboard Find Contributions results

PR Dashboard is a local-first GitHub issue finder for contributors who want better decisions before they spend time on a public issue. It keeps GitHub search familiar, then adds transparent fit scoring, contribution guidance, target-platform evidence, a local Board, Activity history, Review reminders, Proof Log history, and API-limit visibility.

The core workflow is:

discovery -> confidence -> action -> contribution proof/history

What PR Dashboard Helps You Decide

PR Dashboard is built for the moment before a contribution becomes real work. It helps answer:

  • Is this issue a credible candidate, or just noisy search output?
  • What signals make it look approachable?
  • What risks should I notice before committing time?
  • What should I read or verify first?
  • Where should I track the candidate if it still looks worth trying?

The product is intentionally candid. Scores are deterministic, score reasons are visible, and risky issues can still be inspected or saved when you want to make the call yourself.

Product Tour

Find Contributions Board workflow
Find Contributions results showing scored public issue candidates Contribution Board with active workflow lanes and a completed proof card
Search public GitHub issues, compare fit signals, inspect risks, and save promising candidates. Move candidates through local workflow lanes so possible contributions do not disappear after search.
Activity proof and reminders API limits
Activity view with Proof Log and Review reminders API limits popover showing REST core and Search buckets
Keep local completion history, review reminders, and learned feedback without a backend account or remote sync. See GitHub REST/core and Search buckets so rate-limit behavior is easier to understand.

The Workflow

  1. Search or look up an issue with Find Contributions or Lookup.
  2. Inspect the evidence: score rows, pass reasons, repo metadata, labels, comments, age, assignment state, setup/platform evidence, and the Contribution Brief.
  3. Save candidates deliberately.
  4. Work from the Board as confidence changes.
  5. Keep local proof/history in Activity when a Board card moves to Merged.

Proof Log entries are local history records. They do not remotely verify GitHub merges.

Why Local-First Matters

PR Dashboard v1 runs entirely in the browser. There is no app backend, backend sync, encrypted sync, database, GitHub OAuth, GitHub App auth, model API dependency, or app-owned server receiving your token or Board data.

  • Public GitHub issue search works without a token.
  • A GitHub token is optional and only increases rate limits or supports the Settings connection test.
  • Session-only token memory is the default.
  • Remembering a token is opt-in and uses browser localStorage.
  • Board cards, Hidden Results, profile metadata, contribution preferences, learned feedback, and Proof Log records stay local to the browser.
  • Export/Import Local Data is the current bridge between browsers.
  • GitHub tokens and remember-token settings are never exported.
