Hey there, I am having some difficulties tracking Github notifications, there are so many since the transition to Github (which is great!), so I’ve found out this [octobox](https://github.com/octobox/octobox), which provides something similar to an e-mail inbox for Github notifications, with filters, etc.
It only needs read access to the notifications. And it uses two kinds of tokens, the personal, and the per-repository/organization. The latter allows to associate the status of a pull-request (merged, etc), tags, CI status to the notifications (see image). It is free for open-source projects, so I was wondering what do you think and if InsightSoftwareConsortium could enable it.
You can try it here: [https://octobox.io/](https://octobox.io/)
I have also created an electron desktop app as suggested in the docs.

Cool, @phcerdan!
Octobox has been installed for the `InsightSoftwareConsortium` GitHub org. 🐙
