I built an AI that explains your CI failures in plain English (right inside your PR)
Short summary
FailBrief is a GitHub App that watches CI workflows, explains failures in plain English on PRs with error details and suggested fixes, detects flaky tests with statistical scoring and Slack notifications, and provides repo health dashboards. It targets small-to-medium teams and open source maintainers, with a free tier (25 analyses/month) and paid option (500/month). Early-bird code (EARLYBIRDCODE) grants 3 months free Pro.
