GitHub Comments
Comments on pull requests and issues are where engineering collaboration happens: review feedback, clarifying questions, and coordination. WorkSights captures comment activity so leaders can see how their team collaborates around code.
Comments complement the other GitHub signals. Commits show what work was done, pull requests show what changes are being proposed, and comments show how engineers collaborate around those changes. Together they give teams visibility into not just what was built but how collaboration is happening across the engineering workflow.
For connection steps, see GitHub Setup.
What WorkSights Receives
WorkSights captures PR review comments and issue comments. Activity titles follow the pattern "GitHub Comment on {repo} #{n}," and the comment body appears in the activity detail.
Consecutive comments by the same user on the same PR or issue collapse into a single activity, so rapid back-and-forth discussion doesn't flood the timeline.
Comments from bots are filtered and never appear.
Troubleshooting
Comment activity is not appearing
Confirm the commenting user's GitHub username is mapped in the Users tab. Confirm the repository is included in the App's installation grant. Comments from before the integration was installed will not appear.
Several comments appear as one activity
This is expected. Consecutive comments by the same user on the same PR or issue are grouped into a single entry.
