GitHub Integration

Sync your GitHub repositories, issues, pull requests, and commits into SharedMemory's knowledge graph.

Pull Requests	Title, description, reviewers, status, diff summary
Commits	Message, author, changed files
Repositories	Name, description, language, topics

Setup

1. Go to Settings → Integrations → GitHub
2. Click Connect GitHub
3. Authorize SharedMemory via GitHub OAuth
4. Select repositories to sync
5. Choose a target volume

Configuration

Setting	Description	Default
Repositories	Which repos to sync	All accessible
Sync Issues	Include issues	Yes
Sync PRs	Include pull requests	Yes
Sync Commits	Include commit messages	Yes
Auto-sync	Continuous sync via webhooks	Yes

How It Works

• Initial sync: Indexes the last 90 days of activity
• Ongoing: GitHub webhooks trigger real-time updates
• Entities created: Repositories, Contributors, Issues, PRs become graph entities
• Relationships: CONTRIBUTED_TO, ASSIGNED_TO, REVIEWS, FIXES, REFERENCES

Example Queries

Once connected, your agents can answer questions like:

• "What PRs were merged this week?"
• "Who is working on the authentication module?"
• "What issues are blocking the release?"
• "Summarize the changes in the last sprint"

Permissions

SharedMemory requests the following GitHub scopes:

• repo — Read access to repositories
• read:org — Read org membership (for team repos)

SharedMemory never writes to your GitHub repositories.
