PR Pulse by CodePulse
Extension Actions
- Live on Store
See PR age and complexity at a glance on GitHub. Lightweight, free, no data collection. From CodePulseHQ.com
Instantly spot stale pull requests on GitHub.
PR Pulse adds simple, color-coded badges to GitHub's pull request pages so you can see at a glance which PRs need attention.
### ⏱️ PR Age Badges
Every PR shows how long it's been open:
• Green - Fresh (< 24 hours)
• Yellow - Getting stale (1-3 days)
• Red - Needs attention (> 3 days)
### 📊 Complexity Scores (on PR detail pages)
See PR complexity based on files changed and lines of code:
• Low - Small, focused change
• Medium - Moderate scope
• High - Large change, needs careful review
• Critical - Very large, consider breaking up
### ⚙️ Fully Customizable
Click the extension icon to adjust thresholds:
• Set your own age thresholds (default: 24h green, 72h yellow)
• Configure complexity scoring
• Toggle badges on/off for list vs. detail pages
### 🔒 Privacy First
• No data collection - We don't track anything
• No network requests - Works entirely locally
• No account required - Just install and use
• Minimal permissions - Only needs storage for your settings
### Why PR Pulse?
Long-lived PRs are a code smell. Research shows PRs open longer than 3 days have:
• Higher defect rates
• Lower review quality
• Increased merge conflicts
PR Pulse makes stale PRs impossible to ignore, helping your team ship faster with fewer bugs.
