octoscope

octoscope presents a GitHub account as an interactive terminal dashboard, showing profile details, activity metrics, repository health, and network information without leaving the command line. It aggregates data such as stars, followers, contributions heatmap, open pull requests, and issues into five tabs that can be accessed with a single keystroke, and each tab offers sortable and searchable listings of repositories, PRs, and issues.

The tool is built in Go using the BubbleTea framework and runs on macOS, Linux, and Windows without additional configuration. Users can view their own dashboard by providing a personal token or inspect any public username by supplying the name as an argument. The interface refreshes automatically every minute, with manual refresh and quit commands available, and it respects GitHub rate‑limit constraints.

Live feedback highlights changes—such as new stars or merged PRs—by flashing card borders, and optional system notifications and beeps alert the user to updates even when the dashboard runs in the background. This makes it suitable for developers who want a quick, terminal‑based overview of their GitHub activity and that of others.
