A note from "the author". This note you are reading is the only code I manually contributed to this repo. I've never looked at a single file, only diffs presented to me from Claude Code. So you need to ask yourself if you trust me and also if you trust Claude Code before you download, install, and run this thing. Mostly if you trust Claude Code, honestly. I am really just the the VP of Product for this thing: technically knowledgeable, but not necessarily about this language or this codebase in particular. (I've literally never hand-coded a lick of Swift in my life so far.)

But this toolbar app sure does scratch an itch that I personally have.


What's New in v0.7.2

Fixed

  • Fix closed draft PRs appearing when "Closed" status filter is disabled (draft query now respects other status filters)

Installation

Quick Install (Recommended)

YOLO mode - full auto-install:

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/happycollision/GitHubMenuBar/main/install.sh | bash -s -- --yolo

This will:

  • Download and extract the latest release
  • Remove quarantine attributes (unsigned app handling)
  • Move to /Applications automatically
  • Check for GitHub CLI and guide setup if needed

Conservative mode - you handle the final steps:

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/happycollision/GitHubMenuBar/main/install.sh | bash

This downloads and extracts only. You'll manually move to /Applications and handle first launch.

Install specific version:

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/happycollision/GitHubMenuBar/main/install.sh | bash -s -- --version v0.7.2 --yolo
