GitHub Integration
Connect your GitHub account and get PRs created by the optimal model per task. Smart routing ensures every PR uses the right AI at the right cost.
What Is GitHub Integration for AI Development?
GitHub integration connects your version-controlled codebase to an AI development workflow. Instead of copying AI-generated code manually into your project, the AI works directly with your repository — cloning it, creating branches, writing code, and opening Pull Requests just like a human developer would.
This is the bridge between "AI that generates code snippets" and "AI that ships features." Without repository integration, every AI-generated change requires manual copy-paste, file creation, and git operations. With it, the entire flow from task to merged code is automated.
In Vibe Coding Plan, GitHub integration is the foundation of the auto-execution pipeline. You connect your GitHub account via OAuth, link a repository to your project, and the AI handles everything from git clone to Pull Request creation.
Why GitHub Integration Matters
Version control isn't optional in professional software development — it's the foundation. AI development tools that bypass Git create code that exists outside your project's history, review process, and deployment pipeline. GitHub integration solves this:
Code Review Before Merge
Every AI-generated change goes through a Pull Request. You see the diff, review the code, leave comments, and decide whether to merge — exactly like reviewing a teammate's work. Nothing lands on your main branch without your approval.
Full Git History
Every change the AI makes is tracked in git with proper commits, branch names, and PR descriptions. You can revert any AI-generated code, compare changes over time, and maintain a clean project history.
Works With Your Existing Pipeline
If you have CI/CD, automated tests, or deployment pipelines triggered by git events — they work with AI-generated PRs too. The AI doesn't bypass your quality gates.
Branch Isolation
Each task gets its own branch (task/{id}-{slug}). If the AI produces bad code, it's isolated on its own branch. Your main branch stays clean and deployable at all times.
How to Connect GitHub
Go to AI Integrations
From your dashboard, navigate to AI Integrations in the sidebar. You'll see the GitHub connection section at the top.
Authorize with GitHub
Click "Connect GitHub". You'll be redirected to GitHub to authorize the app. We request repo and user:email scopes to clone repos, push branches, and create Pull Requests.
Link a Repo to Your Project
Open any project and click "Link GitHub Repo". A dropdown shows all your repositories. Each project can be linked to one repo.
AI Pushes Code to Your Repo
When a task is executed by AI, the worker clones the repo, creates a branch, writes code, and opens a Pull Request. Move to "Completed" to auto-merge.
What Happens Behind the Scenes
Cloning: The worker clones your repository into a secure workspace. Consecutive tasks reuse the workspace to save time.
Branching: Each task gets its own branch named task/{id}-{slug}, based on your default branch.
Pull Requests: After coding, a PR is created with a descriptive title and summary. Review the diff on GitHub like any normal PR.
Auto-Merge: Moving a task to "Completed" on the Kanban board sends a merge request via the GitHub API into your default branch.
Empty Repos: If your repo is empty (no commits), the system creates an initial commit on main before creating task branches.
Frequently Asked Questions
What GitHub permissions does Vibe Coding Plan need?
We request repo (to clone, push branches, and create PRs) and user:email scopes. We never access repositories you haven't explicitly linked to a project. Your GitHub token is stored encrypted.
Can the AI push directly to my main branch?
No. The AI always creates a separate branch for each task and opens a Pull Request. You review the code and decide when to merge. Nothing touches your main branch without your explicit approval.
What happens if the AI creates bad code?
The code lives on an isolated branch. If you don't like the PR, simply close it or delete the branch. Your main branch and existing code are never affected by a failed task execution.
Can I use this with private repositories?
Yes. The GitHub OAuth flow grants access to both public and private repositories. You choose which specific repo to link to each project.
Does auto-merge work with branch protection rules?
Auto-merge respects your GitHub branch protection rules. If you have required reviews or status checks configured, those must pass before the merge completes.
