- 📄 Dark-themed Reports — Exportable HTML reports with SVG charts and an X-Ray visual identity
- 🛟 Git-Backed Fallback Analysis — If AI analysis is unavailable, Team X-Ray can still assemble a reduced view from local git history
How It Works
Team X-Ray reads your local git history — commits, contributors, file ownership — and feeds that data into the GitHub Copilot SDK when available. To use a model outside Copilot, bring your own OpenAI, Anthropic, or Azure key (BYOK). If AI output cannot be produced, it builds a reduced git-based analysis.
GitHub Models is deprecated. Team X-Ray still falls back to it when the Copilot SDK fails and a GitHub token is saved, but new setups should use BYOK.
