Any way to have it not require full write access to your entire GitHub account?


Yes, we're working on this!

Right now the app uses GitHub's OAuth sign in (https://docs.github.com/en/apps/oauth-apps/building-oauth-ap...) which unfortunately doesn't allow for fine-grained permissions (it will only have access to organization code if you explicitly grant it) . We're switching our sign-in to a GitHub App so we can make the permissions fine-grained.


Why not local git support?


Yeah, it’s not like this is a saas and you’d need back-end access to the repos. I suspect this is being run with business potential in mind. The OP would do better by making that clear. And if you are selling a self-hosted app, just charge a license fee. People on 100-200/month claude code subscription wouldn’t mind paying 10-30 bucks for this.


Looks like they added local Git support, but it still requires Github auth for email address https://x.com/charliebholtz/status/1950556998900007239


Fixed! You can now give Conductor fine-grained GitHub repository access.

Or, skip the integration and use your local GitHub CLI auth.


Are you still using outdated GitHub Oauth apps for this, or have you swapped to GitHub Apps? GitHub Apps are newer and have Oauth flows, but have a fine-grained permissions model instead of the Oauth permission model.

More info: https://docs.github.com/en/apps/oauth-apps/building-oauth-ap...

More-over, can you document the GitHub permissions needed and which GitHub App(s) this tool uses? Are you using device-flow, online oauth-flow, etc? And where are the Oauth tokens stored if so? Is there any server-side component where you might be storing tokens?

Thanks!


Can Apple do anything about this?


I think they can revoke a certificate, but I don't think these certs need to be signed by Apple to be effective. If they aren't, they probably just show a warning.


Braintree will very soon be in Canada. I believe they're running beta as well.


We actually just launched in Canada and today. https://www.braintreepayments.com/tour/international


Pretty sure the graph proportions are off and misleading.


I agree, too. Keep perfecting it and it'll be a great, useful theme.


We're in Canada, have looked at Braintree and couldn't get a merchant account going either with them or their only partner for Canada. Turned around and looked at Beanstream for Merchant Account + Gateway, so far excellent service and product. Gateway not as neat as Braintree's Transparent Redirect but better than almost anything we've looked at.
