Ask Theo to summarize issue threads or PR activity

Connecting GitHub

Open the connector

Go to Skill Store → Flow Connectors → GitHub and click Connect.

Authorize with GitHub

You'll be redirected to GitHub's OAuth screen. Grant access to the repositories you want.

Pick a repository

Select a default repository and optionally a branch.

What You Can Do

  • • Get repository metadata (description, stars, language, topics)
  • • List open issues sorted by last updated
  • • Get issue details including body and comments
  • • List open pull requests
  • • List recent commits on the default branch
  • • List all branches and releases
  • • Create new issues
  • • Add comments to issues or pull requests

Token Management

OAuth tokens are automatically refreshed by OpenCharts. If a refresh fails, you'll see a reconnection prompt in the Skill Store.

Disconnecting

Go to Skill Store → Flow Connectors → GitHub and click Disconnect. You can also revoke access from GitHub → Settings → Applications → Authorized OAuth Apps.

Troubleshooting

Repository not found

Make sure you granted access to the repository during OAuth. Private repos require explicit authorization.

Permission denied on write actions

You need push access to the repository to create issues or comments.

"No credentials found"

Your connection may have expired. Reconnect from Skill Store → Flow Connectors → GitHub.
