GitHub

Open PRs, triage issues, and read failing workflows.

Repositories, issues, pull requests, and code review.

What you can do

Turn the connector on with your own account and the assistant works inside GitHub.

Issues

Read issues, reply to them, and triage what came in.

Code review

Summarize diffs, draft review comments, submit reviews.

Pull requests

Read files and open PRs from branches you have pushed.

Actions and security

Workflow runs, code scanning, and Projects v2 come from the official server tile.

Things you can ask

Type these in chat once the connector is on.

How you sign in

Sign in with GitHub once and the connector picks the account up, or paste a fine-grained Personal Access Token scoped to the repositories you want it to touch. Runs on your machine, so Docker is not needed.

Whatever the method, you do it once. Credentials are encrypted and stay on your machine; the Plexon server never sees them. Activation is per workspace, so the connector can be on for one project and off for another.

Two ways to connect

The app ships two GitHub tiles. The default one runs on your machine with no Docker and covers issues, pull requests, reviews, and files. It is also the only one that drives the Approvals panel, so repository watching and drafted pull request reviews come from this tile and not the other. GitHub's official server adds Actions runs, code scanning, secret scanning, Projects v2, gists, and notifications, and runs as a Docker container, so it needs Docker Desktop installed and running. The install screen says which is which and switches between them in one click.

Connect GitHub to Plexon

Install Plexon, open the Apps view, and turn on GitHub, then sign in once. From then on you just ask.
