A slow GitHub no longer freezes Obeya

Shared by Daniel Sadilek on October 26, 2026

Obeya checks each card's pull request on GitHub every two minutes. Until now, it waited for GitHub's answers in a way that froze the whole page: on a slow day, switching canvases or opening a conversation hung for many seconds. Now every request to GitHub or Forgejo runs in the background, side by side and with a time limit, so Obeya stays responsive while GitHub takes its time, and a pull request GitHub does not answer holds up no other card.
