Show HN: GitHub-assistant – Natural language questions from your GitHub data

49 points

a year ago

Simon(sfarshid) and I spend a lot of time on GitHub. As data nerds we put together a quick tool to explore your repository’s data.

How it works:

- Data Loading: We use dlt to pull data (issues, PRs, commits, stars) from GitHub

- Semantic Layer: Relta wraps the underlying dataset into a semantic layer so the LLM doesn’t hallucinate.

- Text-to-SQL: A text-to-SQL agent transforms your plain-English question into a query using the semantic layer

- Generative Charts: assistant-ui dynamically generates a chart based on the SQL query

- Refinements: If the semantic layer can’t handle your question, our agent submits semantic layer improvements via pull requests

Check out the repo + hosted version and let us know what you think.
