GitHub: see why a pull request is stuck
This 26-second video shows GitHub in FavTray, a Mac menu bar app for developers. Inbox to PR to the failing check, with blocked state and review age. The inbox shows why each notification reached you, and the PR card shows the author, target branch, who it is waiting on, checks and reviews. A failing check links straight to the run, and FavTray signs in with the gh CLI login you already have.
