Quiet PRs – Hide Bots on GitHub Autor: gantoine

Bots spam comment on every pull request: coverage reports, CI summaries, AI reviews, and more. Replies from developers actually discussing the change get buried between them.

Quiet PRs allows you to hide (or collapse) noisy bot comments, so human discussions are easier to see.

• Press b to show/hide bot comments
• Press e to show/hide events (labels, commits, reviews, merges)
• When hidden, bot reviewers drop out of the Reviewers sidebar as well
• Human replies to bot comments stay visible when bot comments are hidden
• The same filter applies to inline review threads on the Files changed tab.

Bots are recognized by name[bot] logins, author links pointing at /apps/, GitHub App avatars, bot and AI badges, a built-in list of 30+ common apps, and optional name heuristics. Unrecognized bot accounts, or ones that post through a personal access token, can be added manually in the settings.
