Automated Gitee Stale Pull Request Alerts
Every morning, WebRun opens Gitee, checks every repository for pull requests with no review activity for 3 days or more, creates a Trello card naming the pull request, author, and how long it has waited, and texts the maintainer through WhatsApp so old contributions don't sit forgotten in the queue.
How do I stop Gitee pull requests from going unreviewed?
WebRun checks every Gitee repository each morning for pull requests with no review activity for 3 days or more. It creates a Trello card naming the pull request and author, and texts the maintainer through WhatsApp, so contributions don't sit forgotten in the queue waiting for someone to notice them.
- Stale pull requests get a nudge before they're forgotten
- Every stale PR has a tracked card until it's reviewed
- Contributors get a faster response instead of an open ended wait
Built for open source maintainers · engineering teams · platform teams · software development teams

WebRun signs in once and keeps each session in a persistent environment, so every run picks up right where it left off.
Every action is checked against this policy before it runs.
Questions, answered
Will it review or merge the pull request?
No. WebRun only reports which pull requests are waiting. Reviewing and merging stays entirely with your maintainers.
What counts as stale?
No comment or review activity for 3 days or more. Anything reviewed within that window never gets carded.
What happens once it's reviewed?
Its Trello card moves to done automatically the next time the check finds review activity on it.
