Integration / GitHub

Pull-request context for every finding.

GitHub supplies the lifecycle signal: which repository owns the work, whether the pull request is open or closed, and when that state changed. LintCycle uses that context without writing to your repositories.

The operating principle

The pull request is context, not authority.

A merged pull request is one signal. LintCycle compares it with provider inventory and deterministic rules before it produces a finding.

Why GitHub

The context stays attached to the recommendation.

Choose the repositories

Monitor only the repositories that belong in the workspace rather than granting broad, unexplained access.

Read lifecycle state

Use repository and pull-request metadata to understand whether preview work is still active, merged, or closed.

Keep the source visible

Every correlated finding points back to the pull request evidence that contributed to the decision.

How it works

A short path from connection to review.

01 / Install

Connect the GitHub App

Authorize the read-only installation and select the repositories the LintCycle workspace should inventory.

02 / Inventory

Read pull-request state

LintCycle records the minimum repository and pull-request metadata needed for deterministic correlation.

03 / Correlate

Match work to resources

Pull-request evidence is compared with Railway and Supabase inventory before a finding is created.

Questions

The boundaries, in plain language.

Can LintCycle merge, close, or edit pull requests?

No. The version-one provider boundary is read-only and includes no pull-request write actions.

Does a closed pull request always create a finding?

No. LintCycle requires sufficient provider evidence and prefers no finding when correlation is uncertain.

Can repositories be selected per workspace?

Yes. Repository selection belongs to the authenticated organization and is enforced server-side.

Close the loop

Connect GitHub without handing over the controls.

Start with read-only pull-request context, then add the providers that create your preview resources.
