We all have good intentions, but even the best have bad days. We all can be grumpy, impatient, or insecure.

“Am I helping to resolve this PR?” is a valuable question to ask yourself before posting a comment.

My friend and I came up with Sensus - a tiny AI helper that asks this question and provides an answer as a score between 1 and 5. It incorporates constructiveness, politeness, and agreeableness into the calculations.

Sensus is free. It is available as a Chrome extension that works in GitHub comments.

At this stage, we are figuring out how many people may find this extension worth using.

If we see enough interest in this project, we will add it to other platforms.

Feel free to leave us any feedback in the comments.
