SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Daily — named alert the day a fork completes its first ever workflow run. Fork-cohort runs weekly; this skill catches the activation moment to reduce the gap between activation and recognition.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Detects forks for which the ACTIVE/POWER state has just emerged and triggers a named alert on first activation.
  • Supports a dry-run mode, a parent-repo override, and a backfill behavior on first run.
  • Maintains a persistent seen list with a 500-entry limit, and writes logs for each run.

Quick Start

Inspect today’s forks and simulate first-run alerts without sending notifications.

FAQPage Schema
How do I get a notification when a GitHub fork runs a workflow for the first time?▼

You can generate a named alert the day a fork completes its first workflow run by using a Skill that tracks activation states. It identifies active forks and triggers notifications when their first workflow run completes.

Can I test fork workflow alerts without sending live notifications?▼

Yes, you can simulate first-run alerts without sending notifications by enabling dry-run mode. This allows you to inspect today's fork activity and verify alert behavior safely before executing live.

How many forks can this alert system track at once?▼

The alert system tracks fork activity using a persistent seen list with a 500-entry limit. It manages cohort caches and applies batch notification rules to prevent alert fatigue.

Does this GitHub fork alert tool work on a specific parent repository?▼

Yes, the tool operates on a parent repository and includes an optional parent-repo override. It also supports a backfill behavior on the first run to establish initial state tracking.

What happens if the local fork cohort cache is missing?▼

The system has a live fallback to the GitHub API to retrieve fork data if the local cache is unavailable. This ensures continuous monitoring of workflow runs and accurate first-run alerts.

How do I reduce notification noise from automated fork alerts?▼

You can reduce noise using built-in batch notification rules and bot-allowlist handling. The system processes cohort caches and applies a 500-entry seen list to avoid duplicate alerts.
