What can ModuleX do with GitHub?

A ModuleX agent can run any of GitHub's 16 actions, across repositories, issues, pull requests and branches, from a plain-English request, using your organization's own GitHub credentials.

Does the GitHub integration need a pre-built workflow?

No. The agent selects the right GitHub action from your prompt. A workflow is only needed when you want a repeatable process, and the composer builds that for you from a description.

How does ModuleX authenticate with GitHub?

Through OAuth: you connect your GitHub account once and ModuleX stores the token encrypted, scoped to your organization.

How many GitHub actions are available?

16, spanning repositories, issues, pull requests and branches.

Is GitHub free to use in ModuleX?

GitHub runs on your own credentials, so any GitHub usage is billed by GitHub directly. ModuleX meters the agent run, and if you connect your own model keys there's no ModuleX markup on model usage.

The ModuleX GitHub integration lets a ModuleX agent operate GitHub on your behalf, running create, update and remove actions across repositories, issues and pull requests, directly from a plain-English request, using your organization's own GitHub credentials. No pre-built workflow is required: the agent picks the right GitHub action for the task.

GitHub is a developer tools & infrastructure platform. ModuleX adds the agent layer: ask for an outcome and it selects and runs the right GitHub action. Or, when you want a repeatable process, the composer assembles a GitHub workflow for you, streaming the nodes onto the canvas as it builds.

Drive GitHub in plain English

Type what you want. A ModuleX agent picks the right GitHub action, or chains several, and runs it. No workflow to build.

Two ways to use GitHub in ModuleX

Ask the assistantType what you want done and a ModuleX agent picks the right GitHub action and runs it. No workflow to build.

Compose a workflowNeed it to happen every time? Describe the process and the composer wires GitHub into a repeatable workflow you can run on a schedule, from chat, or as an API.

Connecting GitHub

OAuthGitHub uses OAuth. You connect your GitHub account once; ModuleX stores the access token encrypted and scoped to your organization, so your team shares a single secure connection.

Bearer tokenGitHub uses bearer-token authentication. You provide a GitHub access token; ModuleX encrypts it and scopes it to your organization so the whole team can use GitHub.

Step-by-step setup in the GitHub docs

Works with GitHub

Agents often chain GitHub with these. Connect them once and one agent can use all of them in a single task.
