Git Watchtower
Monitors git branches in real time with activity sparklines and instant notifications and a web dashboard for branches created by AI coding agents
The product is a git branch monitoring tool that tracks remote branches in real time with activity sparklines, ahead/behind counters, and instant audio and visual notifications. It solves the problem of keeping up with branches and commits created and pushed unattended by AI coding agents. It sells to developers and engineering teams working with Claude Code, Codex, and other AI agents. It is delivered as a terminal UI and browser-based web dashboard installed via Homebrew, npm, or source, built on Node.js built-ins with no dependency tree.
