Frost

Incident-aware merge protection for GitHub

Ship with confidence, even when an incident fires. Frost guards merges automatically so a P1 doesn't turn into two.

Keep shipping, even on the worst days

Connect your incident tools and let Frost guard merges automatically. Scheduled and daily windows are there for the calmer days.

Why Frost exists

Incident-Driven Protection

Connect PagerDuty or incident.io and keep shipping. When a P1 fires, Frost guards your repos automatically. No Slack thread, no human in the loop, no merge that turns one incident into two.

Also included

Daily Protection Windows

Mark the hours when your team is thin and ship safely around them.

Scheduled Protection

Pre-declare holidays and launch weeks. Ship deliberately when stakes are highest.

Override Labels

Emergency bypass with a full audit trail.

Slack Notifications

Keep teams informed about protection status in real time.

Audit Trail

Compliance-ready logs of every protection event.

Cloudflare, Google, and GitHub pause deploys during incidents. Frost gives the rest of us the same playbook, automatically.

"In late 2025, after two major outages, Cloudflare declared a company-wide Code Orange — halting non-critical changes and prioritizing resilience above everything else."

"Google's SRE team gates all changes during launches and critical periods, a practice that extends to incident response so failures don't compound."

Google · SRE Book

"During their February 2021 service disruptions, GitHub froze production deployments for three days to stabilize GitHub.com."
