About GitHub PR Review Checker

When you work across several repositories, review requests tend to get buried under notifications — by the time you notice one, days may have passed. GitHub PR Review Checker puts every pull request waiting for your review one click away, right in your toolbar. The badge shows how many reviews are pending and refreshes every minute. There is also a "Created" tab for the other side of the workflow: it shows the PRs you opened, whether they have been approved or need changes, and whether CI passed. One extension covers both reviewing and being reviewed. ▼ Features - List every PR waiting for your review, across all repositories - "Created" tab: track the review status of your own PRs - CI check status on each PR (passed / failed / running) - Notion link on each PR card (works with Notion's GitHub integration) - Sort by update time or creation time (ascending / descending) - Filter by repository, author, approval status, label, size (lines changed), and exclude drafts - Each PR card shows title, author, age, lines changed, files changed, approval state, and labels - Open all listed PRs in new tabs at once - Badge with the pending review count, refreshed every minute - Works with public and private repositories - Supports both fine-grained and classic personal access tokens - Dark mode - Available in 8 languages: English, 日本語, Español, Français, Deutsch, Português, 한국어, 简体中文 - Keyboard shortcut support ▼ Privacy & Security Your GitHub token is stored in Chrome's sync storage (chrome.storage.sync), a standard Chrome feature that syncs it only across your own Chrome profiles via your Google account; it is never sent to the developer's servers or any other external server. The only network destination declared in the manifest's host_permissions is the GitHub API (https://api.github.com). - No data collection - Nothing sent to external servers - The token is used only for GitHub API requests ▼ Setup 1. Create a GitHub Personal Access Token (Settings > Developer settings > Personal access tokens) - Fine-grained token (for minimal permissions): grant the "Pull requests: Read-only" repository permission - Classic token (for the full feature set): grant the "repo" scope (needed for CI status from GitHub Actions and multiple organizations) 2. Click the extension icon and open the settings from the button in the top right 3. Paste the token and save Step-by-step instructions are included in the built-in user guide. ▼ FAQ Q. How often does the badge update? A. Every minute. You can also refresh manually with the button inside the popup. Q. Is my token safe? A. It is stored in Chrome's sync storage, synced only across your own Chrome profiles via your Google account, and used only for GitHub API requests. It is never sent to any external server. Q. Does it work with private repositories? A. Yes. Grant the "repo" scope on a classic token, or repository access with the "Pull requests: Read-only" permission on a fine-grained token. Q. Why is no CI status shown? A. PRs in repositories without CI configured show no status. Also, GitHub does not allow granting the Checks permission to fine-grained tokens, so CI results from GitHub Actions cannot be displayed. Use a classic token if you need CI status. Q. Will it slow down my browser? A. The extension only calls the GitHub API when you open the popup; in the background it just refreshes the badge. ▼ Recent Updates - v1.13.0: Fine-grained token support and PR count badges on tabs - v1.12.0: Added Notion links to PR cards - v1.11.0: Added the "Created" tab and CI check status ▼ Support & Feedback Bug reports and feature requests are welcome via the contact form: https://forms.gle/3yh1uzE92NXF5QGq5
