Thread every change from PR to production
hall-monitor threads the complete narrative of a software change — from opening a PR to CI builds, deployments, and production incidents — as a single, coherent story.
Hover over any step to see what hall-monitor tracks
Everything threads together
Existing tools cover individual slices. hall-monitor threads the full story — especially the gap between deploys and incidents.
PR lifecycle threading
Every PR gets a Slack thread that updates in real time — reviews, CI status, merge — all in one place.
Deploy tracking
Deploys get their own thread listing every included PR. Watch builds, staging, and production roll out step by step.
Incident linking
When someone reports an error, hall-monitor links it back to the deploy and PRs that caused it — then threads the fix all the way to production.
Cross-channel threading
Updates flow across #eng-prs, #deployments, and incident channels. Stakeholders see updates wherever they are.
One thread, the whole story
From PR to production — and when things break, from incident to fix. Every step shows up automatically.
Happy path: PR to production
Incident: deploy breaks, fix ships
One thread replaces seven tabs
Stop piecing together the story from scattered notifications across tools.
Without hall-monitor
7 notifications across 4 tools. No connection between them.
With hall-monitor
1 thread in Slack. Full story, automatically.
Works with your stack
hall-monitor connects to the tools your team already uses via webhooks. No custom integrations needed.
How it works
Set up once, then everything flows automatically.
Connect GitHub and Slack
Install hall-monitor in your Slack workspace and connect your GitHub repos via webhook.
PRs start threading automatically
Every new PR creates a Slack thread. CI results, reviews, and merge status flow in as they happen.
Deploys link to PRs
When code ships, hall-monitor creates a deploy thread and cross-links every PR that went out.
Incidents close the loop
Error reports get linked back to deploys and PRs. Fix PRs thread updates all the way back to the original incident.

Frequently asked questions
- How does hall-monitor differ from GitHub's Slack integration?
- GitHub's Slack app notifies you about individual events — a PR opened, a check failed. hall-monitor threads the entire lifecycle of a change into a single Slack thread: PR, CI, reviews, deploy, and incidents. You get the full story, not scattered notifications.
- What permissions does hall-monitor need in Slack?
- hall-monitor requires chat:write, chat:write.public, reactions:read, and channels:history scopes. It needs to be invited to each channel you want it to post in. It never reads DMs or private channels you haven't explicitly configured.
- Which CI providers are supported?
- Any CI that reports status via GitHub check runs or check suites works automatically — GitHub Actions, CircleCI, GitLab CI (with GitHub integration), Jenkins (with GitHub plugin), and others. No CI-specific configuration needed.
- How does incident linking work?
- When someone reports an error in Slack, hall-monitor matches it to the most recent deploy by timestamp and error signature. It links back to the deploy thread and originating PRs. Tag a fix PR and the entire fix lifecycle threads back to the incident.
- Can I use hall-monitor with a monorepo?
- Yes. hall-monitor tracks changes at the PR level, not the repo level. Multiple services deploying from the same repo each get their own deploy threads with only the relevant PRs listed.
- Is there a self-hosted option?
- Not yet. hall-monitor is currently cloud-hosted only. Self-hosted and on-premise options are on the roadmap for Enterprise customers.
- What happens if Slack is down?
- hall-monitor queues events and retries with backoff. Once Slack recovers, queued updates post in order. You can also replay events manually from the dashboard via the API.
