GitHub

Shanone’s GitHub integration gives your agent 176 tools — from everyday issue and PR workflows to CI/CD, code/secret scanning, org administration, and gists.

​
Getting Started

1

Connect via OAuth

Ask your agent to do something with GitHub (e.g. “list open PRs in my-org/my-repo”), or connect proactively from Integrations in the Shanone dashboard.
2

Authorize the requested scopes

GitHub’s OAuth consent screen shows the scopes Shanone requests (repo access, org read, etc.) — review and approve them.
3

Retry your request

Once connected, your agent’s shanone_execute_tool calls for github_* tools will succeed.

​

Common Use Cases

Issue triage

Search, label, and comment on issues from natural-language requests

PR review automation

List open PRs, fetch diffs, and submit reviews

CI/CD control

Trigger workflows, inspect run logs, and rerun failed jobs

Security monitoring

Surface open Dependabot, code scanning, and secret scanning alerts

​
Troubleshooting

Org-scoped tools (github_list_org_secrets, github_get_org, etc.) require the connected account to have the appropriate org role. Reconnect with an account that has admin access if these fail.
Confirm the workflow file actually declares a workflow_dispatch trigger — github_trigger_workflow can only start workflows that support it.
GitHub never returns secret values over the API by design — github_get_repo_secret and friends only return metadata (name, timestamps), never the plaintext value.
