Bounty / Preflight
READ-ONLY • PUBLIC GITHUB DATA

Know before
you code.

A human-reviewed risk report for three GitHub bounty URLs—before you lose a weekend to a closed issue, empty repo, crowded claim, or unverifiable payout.

01 / STATE

Is the work real?

Issue state, repository age and size, license, activity, assignments, and referenced-source sanity check.

02 / CROWD

Who is already there?

Linked pull requests, prior attempts, open competition, and winner-selection questions worth asking first.

03 / MONEY

Is the reward actionable?

Advertised amount evidence, funding caveats, identity and payout gates, required spend, and a clear GO / REVIEW / SKIP.

LIVE SAMPLE / 18 SEP 2026

Three links in.
Two traps out.

The first two advertised $10 fixes in repositories that were one or two days old and only 1 KB—the named source files did not exist. The third was genuinely funded, but identity, payment, public-evidence, and low-margin gates remained.

Public state changes. Every paid report records its capture time and manual follow-ups.

CandidateResultDecisive evidence

WHY MANUAL?

Use the free CLI first.

Free bounty scanners are good at issue state, repo activity, amounts, and competing PRs. The paid report is for the part they cannot settle reliably: checking the external bounty board, identifying payout and identity gates, reading contradictory fine print, distinguishing a real claim path from an advertised amount, and writing the exact questions that remain.

Included: one fresh evidence capture and one no-charge recheck within 24 hours of delivery. If automated screening answers everything, do not buy the report.
