I Hired a Sloth to Read My GitHub Inbox While I Sleep

说明与用途

Sloth FM 自动在夜间处理 GitHub 通知，分类后在早晨提供简洁的音频摘要和链接，减少手动审阅并提升效率。

问题

GitHub notifications were overwhelming and often irrelevant, causing important items to be missed.

结果

Sloth FM reduced manual notification review time to ~2.3 min of compute, correctly identified 57 out of 76 notifications via code, and had Gemma judge the remaining 19, producing a clear audio summary that highlighted only the truly actionable items.

工作流

• Run Gemma 3 locally to judge notifications that need human judgment
• Use GitHub CLI to fetch notifications and store in SQLite
• Code filters obvious cases (CI passes, releases, merged PRs)
• Gemma processes remaining notifications, outputting JSON with bucket, urgency, reason, and spoken sentence
• Temporal workflow orchestrates activities, ensuring charger presence, durability, and query/signal support
• Kokoro voice reads the morning show, linking to a page of actionable URLs
