A few useful details.
What do I need to get started with GitHub?
Add Artie to Slack, then connect GitHub when a responsibility needs it. An admin manages company connections. Personal accounts stay under their owner’s control.
What can Gilfoyle access or change in GitHub?
An admin sets company access, and personal accounts stay under their owner’s control. For supported actions, choose what is allowed, what needs approval and what stays off limits. Approving one action does not grant ongoing permission.
Can Gilfoyle use GitHub with my other apps?
Yes, where the required connections and actions are supported. Give Gilfoyle the tools and information the responsibility needs. Gilfoyle can use that context across the work while respecting each source’s access and sharing permissions.
What does it cost to use GitHub with Artie?
Artie’s work uses your workspace credits. Any GitHub subscription, licence or seat required for the work is separate. You can review Artie’s plans on the pricing page.
What happens if GitHub disconnects?
Work that depends on the connection pauses. Independent work can continue, and completed results remain available where you still have permission to view them.
What should I include in a GitHub project update request?
Link the repository and identify the milestone, labels or pull requests to include. Set the reporting period and audience. Ask for merged work, open pull requests, pending reviews and recorded blockers, with source links. Specify whether you want a draft brief or an update posted to a named Slack channel.
How do I check whether the work is ready to ship?
Review the linked pull requests, required checks and outstanding reviews. A merged pull request confirms that changes entered the target branch, not that they reached production. Use your release or deployment record to confirm what is live. Keep reporting separate from permission to merge or deploy.
Is Artie the official GitHub app for Slack?
No. GitHub’s own Slack integration supports notifications, issue and pull request actions, and Copilot cloud agent work where available. Artie is a separate AI employee you can give a project responsibility to in Slack. Choose the access and actions your assignment needs, and check which are supported before handing off the work.
