Question 1

What permissions does the Kleore GitHub App need?

Accepted Answer

Kleore starts with the bare minimum: read-only access to Actions workflow runs. It never sees your source code. When you enable optional features like PR comments, it asks for just the additional permission needed — you approve each one.

Question 2

Do I need to change my CI workflows?

Accepted Answer

Not for the initial report. The zero-config scan works from your existing GitHub Actions data. To see individual flaky tests, you add one step to upload JUnit XML results — a 2-line YAML change.

Question 3

How is the CI cost number calculated?

Accepted Answer

Each flaky rerun costs approximately 30 minutes (20 min rerun wait + 10 min context switch) at $75/hr fully-loaded engineer rate. These are conservative defaults you can customize for your team.

Question 4

Can I use Kleore on a private GitHub repo?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The free tier works on any repo you install the app on, public or private. Your data stays private and is never shared.

Question 5

What makes Kleore different from other CI tools?

Accepted Answer

Most CI tools show you pass/fail. Kleore shows you cost. It translates flaky tests into dollar amounts so you can prioritize fixes and get budget approval. The shareable report makes the problem impossible to ignore.
