Local-first CI failure
triage for open-source
maintainers.
PatchRail is an open-source CLI that reads a failing CI log and tells you which of 31 failure classes you are looking at — the signature that matched, a first diagnosis step, and a fix strategy. Local rules, secrets redacted, fully offline. Apache-2.0.
pipx install patchrailFree and open source. No account, no telemetry, and your logs never leave your machine.
How it works
Feed it the log
Point patchrail at a raw CI log from any provider. Tokens, credentialed URLs, and obvious secrets are redacted before anything else happens.
Get the class
The log is matched against 31 failure classes by their literal log signatures, with local rules — no network calls, no account, no telemetry.
Fix with the playbook
Every class points at a step-by-step fix guide: what the signature means, the first diagnosis step, and the fix strategy. All 31 guides are free.
