# GitHub

Public GitHub issues and pull requests with your keyword in the title or body.

Rumoro looks for your keyword in the title and body of public GitHub issues and pull requests.

| `platform` | `github` |
| --- | --- |
| Finds | Issues and pull requests |
| Checked | Every 15 minutes, once a day if nothing is found |
| New keyword | The 10 newest posts from the last 30 days |

## What you get

| Field | Holds |
| --- | --- |
| `post.text` | Title and body |
| `author` | Login, profile link and avatar. A later profile lookup adds the name and followers, and puts the bio, company, location, website, public email and linked accounts on the [person](/api/people/get-person). |

Score, sentiment, intent and triage work the same on every platform. See the [mention fields](/api/mentions/get-mention).

## Mute an author

Use `github.com/name`, `github.com/orgs/name`, the login, or a repository link to mute its owner. See [Mute authors](/alerts#mute-authors).

## Limits

- Issue and pull request comments are not searched.
- Search can list a new issue late, so each check rereads the last hour.
- The workspace filter `excludedRepos` leaves out repositories.
