Built because we needed it ourselves
CI/CD Watch started as an internal tool to solve a problem we hit every day: multiple projects, multiple GitHub accounts, zero visibility across them.
The problem
We were running multiple projects on GitHub Actions across different accounts. Every morning started the same way: open a repo, check the Actions tab, switch to the next repo, check again. Repeat across accounts. No single dashboard. No way to spot a failing pipeline without going to look for it.
When something broke, the person who noticed was whoever happened to be in that repo at the time. There was no aggregated view, no shared understanding of which pipelines were healthy and which were quietly degrading. We were flying blind across our own infrastructure.
We looked for a tool that would give us a single pane of glass across all our CI/CD pipelines. Something lightweight, read-only, and fast to set up. We couldn't find one that did what we needed without requiring webhook configurations, self-hosted infrastructure, or a six-figure contract.
So we built it.
What it became
What started as a simple GitHub Actions dashboard quickly grew. Once you can see all your pipelines in one place, the next questions are obvious: which ones are slow? Which are flaky? How much is all this costing us? Are we actually getting better at shipping, or worse?
CI/CD Watch now supports six providers, tracks DORA metrics, breaks down CI costs, detects waste, ranks flaky tests, and gives you stability classifications for every pipeline. You can access it through a web dashboard, a public API, an MCP server for AI assistants, or a CLI.
The core principle hasn't changed: connect with OAuth or an API token, pick your repos, and start watching. No webhooks, no config files, no agents to install. Read-only by design.
Timeline
2014
3CS Technologies founded
Craig Cook founds 3CS Technologies, a software engineering and consultancy firm working across banking, telecoms, and government.
2025
The problem becomes personal
Managing multiple projects on GitHub Actions across different accounts, with no way to see pipeline status in one place. Every team member tab-switching between repos, no shared dashboard, no aggregated metrics.
2026
CI/CD Watch is born
What started as an internal tool to consolidate GitHub Actions quickly grew. If we needed this, other teams running multi-repo or multi-provider setups would too.
2026
Multi-provider launch
Expanded beyond GitHub Actions to support GitLab CI, Bitbucket Pipelines, CircleCI, Azure DevOps, and Jenkins. Added DORA metrics, cost tracking, stability analysis, and test reliability insights. Available as a web dashboard, public API, MCP server for AI assistants, and a CLI.
The team behind it
CI/CD Watch is built by 3CS Technologies, a software engineering firm founded in 2014. We've spent over a decade building systems across banking, telecoms, and government — environments where reliability, security, and observability aren't optional.
Our mission has always been to improve lives with technology: from grunt work to complex tasks, saving time or making things safer. CI/CD Watch is a direct expression of that — taking the tedious, fragmented work of monitoring pipelines and turning it into something you can see, measure, and act on.
We're a small team, which means we move fast and we use the product every day. If something is broken or slow, we feel it first. See what's coming next on our roadmap.
