Troubleshooting

Common Issues

  1. Rate limit exceeded
    • Increase update interval
    • Authenticate with API token
    • Reduce number of monitored repositories
  2. Authentication failures
    • Verify token hasn’t expired
    • Check environment variable is set correctly
    • Ensure token has required permissions
  3. Repository not found
    • Verify repository name and case
    • Check access permissions
    • Confirm repository still exists
