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 two public tiers -- $25/month, for up to 10 private repos, and $100/month for up to $50 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've built a new UI for Custcodian -- I expect that the UI will probably be open-sourced and donated to the OpenSSF in the near future. You can try the current UI at https://console.custcodian.dev/ while it's still in the process of being built.

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.
