GitHub Integration

To keep workflows smooth across desktop and mobile, Lody treats GitHub integration as a core part of the product. After installing the Lody GitHub App for your repositories, Lody can clone your projects from any device, fetch Issue and PR context, and provide a more streamlined workflow.

Setup

Open Settings -> Integrations -> Manage to jump to the GitHub App installation page. Select the repositories you want Lody to access, then return to Lody. The selected repositories appear under Repositories available to add to workspace. Add the ones you need to the current workspace.

Lody supports sharing one repository across multiple workspaces. In other workspaces, repositories with an existing GitHub App installation can be selected and added directly.

Select a Repository for a Conversation

On the home page, use the repository selector at the top-left of the composer to choose a repository that was added to the workspace. Lody then lists branches in that repository so you can choose where to start.

After you create a conversation, Lody clones and initializes the repository on the CLI machine, then creates a new WorkTree from the branch you selected. Each conversation runs on its own branch and does not affect other conversations.

Start from an Issue or Pull Request

After selecting a repository on the home page, type # to mention Issues and Pull Requests in the current repository.

Use the up and down arrow keys to select an item, then press Enter to confirm. The selected Issue or PR context is injected into the prompt, so the agent can handle tasks like Fix #12 or Review the implementation in #56.
