FAQs

Why "Custcodian"?

Minder is kind of a Code Custodian, and I wanted something that was unique when you Googled it. Also, I'm bad at names. If you want to suggest a really awesome name, I might change the company name, and send you a pile of swag when I get some made. Otherwise, "Custcodian" it is.

What's your pricing? I'm allergic to "contact us for a sales pitch".

For public repos, the cloud-hosted instance is free. For private repos, I currently have a single tier -- $500/year, or $50/month, for up to 60 private repos. If there's interest and demand, I'll work on a full pricing structure, but my current focus is improving Minder rather than fancy business things.

What about a GUI (web UI)?

The current UI for Stacklok Cloud is not open source. I'm planning to develop a new UI in the next month or so for Custcodian -- I expect that the UI will probably be open-source, but since I'm still in the design phase, I might discover reasons for it not to be. If you're interested in collaborating on a web UI, drop me a note and you can probably influence the plans.

Why not run Minder on my own?

Go ahead! I'll even be happy to answer questions on OpenSSF Slack (#minder). On the other hand, paying me means that I'll be more likely to work on enhancements, and it will help me cover the hosting bills.
