• Save time with hundreds of pre-tested, battle-hardened scripts
• Test automation workflows without risking Production

• Run API diagnostic tests fast

Feel The Power

The Power reduces GitHub's complexity to mere seconds. Don't waste time debugging - set up and throw away test environments as fast as you need to. Your well-weaponed DevOps team can adhere to the industry standard of "cattle not pets".

Can you handle The Power?

The Power is intended for developers with significant experience working with API endpoints programmatically and/or shell scripts. If this tool doesn't meet your needs, you can learn more from GitHub's REST API public documentation including a list of available endpoints.

As The Power is a third-party application, it is not supported by GitHub support. Please exercise caution, as any script may cause unexpected behavior in an organization or repository, including potentially destructive actions.

Please be aware that The Power is a passion project. This is a useful and unique tool but should not be considered complete and production ready. Please do not spam or harass the developer.
