Re integration with CI: I think this is the most important part 
as otherwise people won't be aware of your work.

You can get a build notification triggered via a GitHub webhook 
and then either send a GitHub status check update or send a 
comment. However, I strongly recommend to not implement your own 
GitHub CI, but add it as another project on the Buildkite project 
tester.

The only downside is that every time it will run on a different 
agent, so pure time measurements wouldn't work, but it should be 
great for all other stats.

Dlang-bot also receives all important web hooks and already sends 
a comment to every PR (+ has the permission to send status 
updates), so this might be another helpful place for your 
integration.
