## What it is
Janky is a continuous integration server built on top of Jenkins, controlled via Hubot chat commands, and designed for GitHub repositories. It automates Jenkins job setup, GitHub webhooks, and build notifications through chat. The repository was archived and is no longer maintained as of April 2022.

## Use cases
- set up CI for GitHub repos via chat commands
- trigger Jenkins builds from a chat room
- route build notifications to specific chat rooms
- manage CI jobs for a whole team through Hubot
- automatically build all branches on push

## When to choose
- you already run Jenkins and Hubot and want chat-based CI control
- you need a legacy GitHub-integrated CI wrapper for an existing Ruby stack

## When to avoid
- starting a new CI setup - the project is unmaintained since 2022
- you need modern CI features or security updates
- you don't use Jenkins, Hubot, or GitHub

## Facets
- artifact type: service
- maturity: abandoned
- function: ci-cd, webhook, chatbot
- domain: developer-tools
- platform: self-hosted, ruby
- tags: jenkins, hubot, github-integration, chatops, continuous-integration, devops, automation, web-server
