Use Mute rules in Slack App Home to control notification noise.

Available Rule Types

  • Mute all comments from bots: enabled/disabled
  • Reviewer Comment Quiet Mode: mute PR comment notifications when you are in reviewer scope (direct reviewer or requested via team), except direct @mentions
  • Mute specific users/bots: comma-separated GitHub logins
  • Mute review-requested teams: comma-separated GitHub team slugs
  • Mute specific pull requests: comma-separated PR references

Reviewer Comment Quiet Mode

When enabled, GitNotifier keeps your initial review-request DM, but mutes follow-up PR comment notifications where you are in reviewer scope.
  • Applies to PR comments and review-thread comments.
  • Direct @mentions still notify you.
  • Non-reviewer notification paths are unaffected.

Muting Team Review Requests

If a PR is review-requested to a muted team (for example @chapter-nodejs), GitNotifier:
  • Skips the review-request DM for you.
  • Auto-mutes notifications for that PR for you.
  • Still notifies you when you are directly @mentioned in comments.
If you are explicitly requested as a reviewer in addition to the team, notifications continue as usual.

Mute a PR with a Slack reaction

React to a PR notification with 🔇 (:mute: or :no_bell:) to mute that pull request without leaving the message. Remove the reaction to unmute and restore notifications. This adds or removes the same PR-level mute rule as /gitnotifier mute and the Mute specific pull requests setting. See Actions in Slack.

List all muted PRs

You can see all muted PRs in the Mute Settings section of the Slack App Home (@gitnotifier page)
