syntaqxRepository pages update live while you sit on them. A signed-in tab on a repository page asks the site to watch it (POST /-/notify, watch_repo), which checks the person can read it and tells notify; notify keeps one topic per repository (a new Topic Durable Object, migration v3) of whose feeds are watching, for fifteen minutes at a time, renewed while the page stays open. The events service passes every event a page shows (pushes and deletions, pull requests, issues, comments, reviews, checks, statuses, runs, releases, deployments, security alerts) to notify as a small repo_changed note naming only its kind, ref, number, commit, run and commit count (g1t_contracts::live), one call per batch, and the actions service tells it of runs' jobs starting and finishing (run.updated, over a new optional NOTIFY binding). Notify hands each change to the watching feeds, which send it to their tabs as a `repo` event. On the page, useRepoLive (lib/use-repo-live.ts) revalidates the loader a second after the last matching change (five at most), never while someone is typing or a dialog is open, and at most once a minute in a hidden tab; signed out or with the socket down it refreshes on coming back into view (at most every 30 s) and once a minute while in view. Used on the overview, Files and folders, Commits (new commits wait under an "N new commits · Show" bar), Tags, the pull request and issue lists, a pull request and an issue (a reader at the bottom follows new timeline items), the Actions runs list (its 3 s poll becomes 30 s with the socket up) and a run (10 s for steps with the socket up), and the Security pages. The notifications guide has a new "Pages that update live" section.
