Clear Dependabot and bot noise from your GitHub notification inbox: mark settled merged and closed PRs done, merge green dependency PRs in repos you maintain, dismiss low-value ones, and leave only real human threads behind.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# GitHub Triage
Clear bot and Dependabot noise from the notification inbox, leave threads from real humans. `--dry-run` classifies and prints the plan without acting.
## Inbox
!`gh api "notifications?all=true&per_page=100" --paginate | jq -r '.[] | [.id, .reason, .subject.type, .repository.full_name, (.subject.url | sub(".*/pulls/";"#") | sub(".*/issues/";"issue#")), .subject.title] | @tsv' | column -t -s $'\t'`
Triage against `all=true`. The default call returns only unread; the app Inbox also shows read-but-not-done threads, where most stale noise sits. First column is the thread id, which is also the mark-done key.
## Gather
Resolve your own login once: `gh api user --jq .login`. For each open `PullRequest` thread:
- `gh api repos/<r>/pulls/<n> --jq '{author:.user.login, state, merged:(.merged_at!=null)}'`. Any closed/merged PR is settled: mark done, skip the rest.
- `gh pr view <n> --repo <r> --json mergeStateStatus`. Merge gate, per the table below. It computes async, so re-fetch once on `UNKNOWN`.
- `gh api repos/<r> --jq .permissions.push`. `true` means you can merge.

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260708.03ef441, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
