Telegram notifications for PR readiness

xpenser added PR-ready Telegram notifications so completed workflow runs can announce validated pull requests to the project channel.

Published June 16, 2026

The PR workflow can now send a Telegram notification once a branch has passed validation and preview QA.

This release came from PR #45 and is now part of the xpenser release archive. It gives people evaluating an open-source expense tracker a clearer view of how the product has improved over time.

What changed

  • Added notification behavior for PR readiness.
  • Tied notifications to passing checks and preview validation.
  • Kept unavailable notifications from blocking otherwise ready PR work.

Why it matters

Release communication is part of a healthy workflow. Notifications help maintainers know when reviewable work is ready without polling GitHub.

Where it fits

This supports faster iteration on xpenser product and infrastructure PRs.

For a broader product overview, start with the xpenser home page. Developers can also explore the personal finance API and MCP tools, while self-hosters can review the self-hosted personal finance tracker page.

Start hosted, then self-host when ready

Create a hosted xpenser account for the public instance, or review the MIT licensed source and run your own deployment from Docker Compose.
