Engineering integration
GitHub + HalftimeOS
Track pull requests merged and issues closed for your team's real engineering output.
Why connect GitHub?
Engineering Rocks and KPIs are easy to set and hard to verify by hand. Pull requests merged and issues closed come straight from GitHub's own record — a real measure of shipped work, not a self-reported estimate at huddle time.
What you can track
-
Pull Requests Merged Common pick
PRs merged in the period, across every repo in this org.
-
Issues Closed Common pick
Issues closed in the period.
-
Issues Opened
New issues filed in the period — useful paired with issues closed to see if the backlog is growing or shrinking.
-
Open Pull Requests
PRs currently open right now — not date-ranged, a snapshot of work in flight.

How often does the GitHub data update?
On whatever cadence matches the meeting the KPI feeds — you choose which meeting series and how many days ahead to pull, so the number's ready before that huddle starts, the same as any other integration in HalftimeOS.
Is my GitHub data secure?
Yes. Your GitHub credentials are encrypted at rest (AES-256-GCM) and scoped to your organization only. Connect with a restricted, read-only key where GitHub supports one, so HalftimeOS can never write back to your account.
