3. Create the configuration

mkdir -p ~/.dsh/github-watchdog

Create ~/.dsh/github-watchdog/config.json:

{
  "repositories": [
    { "repository": "owner/repository", "workspace": "D:/path/to/local/checkout" }
  ],
  "tokenEnv": "GH_TOKEN",
  "intervalMs": 120000,
  "comments": { "enabled": false, "maxPerHour": 4 }
}

repositories may be an empty array at first — the model will discover candidates from the conversation workspace and ask you which to track.

Configuration reference
