Description

For a less popular repo, the master build could be in failed state for prolonged period without being noticed.

E.g. a 25 day failure here. This build failure is caused by a core change and we should have caught and fixed this problem early on vs now being notified by a bug report.

So a feature request: miq-bot to notify (e.g. by emailing) maintainers after say failure not fixed within 1 day.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Explore the existing miq bot codebase, particularly any CI monitoring functionality. Add a feature to check build status via Travis CI API and trigger an email notification after a configurable delay (e.g., 1 day).
