Muon

Muon + GitHub

Connect GitHub to Muon so product changes can be investigated with real release and deployment context — the release that likely caused a metric to move is right there on the timeline.

What does the Muon GitHub integration do?

The GitHub integration brings releases, tags and deployment events onto the Muon timeline, so Findings can be correlated with the release that likely caused them.

When a metric moves, you no longer have to remember what shipped that day. Muon already has the deploy on the timeline — statistics detect the change first, and the matching release is offered as a likely related signal, not a guess.

What Muon imports from GitHub

Release and deploy signals, on the timeline.

Muon reads a focused set of engineering events — enough to place a change in time and link back to the source — never your source code.

Release and deploy events

Published releases, version tags and deployment events across your environments, each landing on the Muon timeline at the moment it happened.

Accurate timestamps

Every event carries the exact time it occurred, so Muon can line it up against the moment a metric started to move.

Related metadata

Repository, environment, version tag, author and release notes — the context that tells you which change this actually was.

Links back to source

Each timeline event links straight back to the GitHub release, tag or deployment, so a click takes you to the exact change.

What this enables

From "a metric moved" to "which release moved it."

Once GitHub events share a timeline with your product metrics, investigation stops being archaeology.

Timeline events

Releases and deploys appear as first-class markers alongside pageviews, conversions and browser health signals.

Correlation with product metrics

Muon scores whether a change in a metric lines up in time with a release — surfaced with confidence and impact, not certainty.

Investigation context

When you open a Finding, the nearby releases are already attached, so the first question — "did we ship something?" — is answered.

Insight summaries

Muon Pro can write a plain-language summary that names the likely-related release, so the change is legible without opening a dashboard.

Example insight

What a GitHub-correlated Finding looks like.

Signup conversion ↓ 18%
High · 0.93
SafariiOS/signupafter release 1.8.4
Signup conversion dropped 18% shortly after a GitHub release. Muon detected the change statistically, then surfaced release v1.8.4 as the closest matching deploy — likely related, for a human to confirm.

Correlation is not causation — Muon surfaces the release as a related signal with confidence and impact so a human decides what is likely connected.

How to connect

Five steps to GitHub on your timeline.

The official GitHub integration is part of Muon Pro. On Community, the same events can flow in through the open connector API.

Open Settings → Integrations

Head to the Integrations panel in your Muon project settings.

Choose GitHub

Select GitHub from the official integration catalogue.

Authorize access

Grant read access to release, tag and deployment metadata via GitHub OAuth or an app installation.

Select repositories and environments

Map the repositories and deployment environments to the Muon projects where their events belong.

Start receiving timeline events

Releases, tags and deploys flow onto the timeline and become available for Findings.

FAQ

Questions, answered directly.

What does the Muon GitHub integration do?
It brings GitHub releases, tags and deployment events onto the Muon timeline so Findings can be correlated with the release that likely caused them.
Is the GitHub integration free?
The official GitHub integration is part of Muon Pro. Teams on Community can push the same release and deploy events via the open community connector API.
Does connecting GitHub give Muon access to my source code?
No. Muon requests read access to release, tag and deployment metadata only. It records what shipped and when, not the contents of your repositories.
Connect the context

Put every release next to the metrics it moved.

Official integrations like GitHub are part of Muon Pro — and a community connector API lets any team push the same events on Community.
