Overview

Meer is a browser extension that displays your GitHub pull requests in a popup. All data stays on your device. We operate no backend servers, collect no analytics, and share nothing with third parties.

What data Meer stores

Everything Meer stores lives in chrome.storage.local — your browser's local storage, accessible only to this extension on this device.

GitHub token Stored locally. Used only to authenticate requests to GitHub's API.

PR data Titles, URLs, review states, CI status, and comments fetched from GitHub. Cached locally between polls.

Settings Polling interval, notification preferences, repository list, priority keywords.

Selected repo filter The last repo filter you picked. Stored locally.

How data is used

Your GitHub token is sent only to api.github.com to fetch your pull requests and post comments or reviews on your behalf.
PR data is displayed in the extension popup and used to generate desktop notifications when configured.
Nothing is sent to any server other than GitHub's own API.

Data flow

Your device chrome.storage.local

External requests api.github.com only

Permissions explained

storage — saves your token and settings to local browser storage.

Data retention and deletion

All locally stored data (token, settings, cached PR data) is automatically deleted when you remove the extension from Chrome. You can also clear it manually at any time from the extension's Settings page.

Children's privacy

Meer is a developer tool intended for adults. It does not knowingly collect any data from anyone under the age of 13.
