GitHub#

Connect GitHub to Lens Agents. Agents get access to repositories, pull requests, issues, and file management through the GitHub CLI.

How It Works#

GitHub connections provide agents with access to the gh CLI and Git operations inside the sandbox. Credentials are managed at the platform level — agents use the GitHub connection without seeing the underlying token.

What Agents Can Do#

With a GitHub connection, agents can:

  • Browse repositories and file contents
  • Create, review, and merge pull requests
  • Search and manage issues
  • Read and write files
  • View commit history and diffs
  • Manage releases and tags

All operations are governed by the GitHub connection's token scope and the agent's policies.

Audit#

Every GitHub operation is recorded in the audit trail — repository access, PR creation, file changes, and other actions are attributed to the agent's identity.
