Github Toolkit

The Github toolkit contains tools that enable an LLM agent to interact with a github repository. The tools are a wrapper for the PyGitHub library.

Quickstart

1. Install the pygithub library
2. Create a Github app
3. Set your environmental variables
4. Pass the tools to your agent with toolkit.get_tools()

Each of these steps will be explained in greate detail below.

1. Get Issues- fetches issues from the repository.

2. Get Issue- feteches details about a specific issue.

3. Comment on Issue- posts a comment on a specific issue.

4. Create Pull Request- creates a pull request from the bot's working branch to the base branch.

5. Create File- creates a new file in the repository.

6. Read File- reads a file from the repository.

7. Update File- updates a file in the repository.

8. Delete File- deletes a file from the repository.

1. Install the pygithub library

In [ ]:

%pip install pygithub

2. Create a Github App

Follow the instructions here to create and register a Github app. Make sure your app has the following repository permissions:

• Commit statuses (read only)
• Contents (read and write)
• Issues (read and write)
• Metadata (read only)
• Pull requests (read and write)

Once the app has been registered, add it to the repository you wish the bot to act upon.

3. Set Environmental Variables

Before initializing your agent, the following environmental variables need to be set:

• GITHUB_APP_ID- A six digit number found in your app's general settings
• GITHUB_APP_PRIVATE_KEY- The location of your app's private key .pem file
• GITHUB_REPOSITORY- The name of the Github repository you want your bot to act upon. Must follow the format {username}/{repo-name}. Make sure the app has been added to this repository first!
• GITHUB_BRANCH- The branch where the bot will make its commits. Defaults to 'master.'
• GITHUB_BASE_BRANCH- The base branch of your repo, usually either 'main' or 'master.' This is where pull requests will base from. Defaults to 'master.'

Example Usage- Simple Agent

In [47]:

import os
from langchain.agents import AgentType
from langchain.agents import initialize_agent
from langchain.agents.agent_toolkits.github.toolkit import GitHubToolkit
from langchain.llms import OpenAI
from langchain.utilities.github import GitHubAPIWrapper

In [53]:

# Set your environment variables using os.environ
os.environ["GITHUB_APP_ID"] = "123456"
os.environ["GITHUB_APP_PRIVATE_KEY"] = "path/to/your/private-key.pem"
os.environ["GITHUB_REPOSITORY"] = "username/repo-name"
os.environ["GITHUB_BRANCH"] = "bot-branch-name"
os.environ["GITHUB_BASE_BRANCH"] = "main"

# This example also requires an OpenAI API key
os.environ["OPENAI_API_KEY"] = ""

In [54]:

llm = OpenAI(temperature=0)
github = GitHubAPIWrapper()
toolkit = GitHubToolkit.from_github_api_wrapper(github)
agent = initialize_agent(
    toolkit.get_tools(), llm, agent=AgentType.ZERO_SHOT_REACT_DESCRIPTION, verbose=True
)

In [55]:

agent.run(
    "You have the software engineering capabilities of a Google Principle engineer. You are tasked with completing issues on a github repository. Please look at the existing issues and complete them."
)

Example Usage- Advanced Agent

If your agent does not need to use all 8 tools, you can build tools individually to use. For this example, we'll make an agent that does not use the create_file, delete_file or create_pull_request tools, but can also use duckduckgo-search.

In [ ]:

%pip install duckduckgo-search

In [72]:

from langchain.tools.github.tool import GitHubAction
from langchain.tools import DuckDuckGoSearchRun
from langchain.agents import Tool
from langchain.chat_models import ChatOpenAI

tools = []
unwanted_tools = ['Get Issue','Delete File', 'Create File', 'Create Pull Request']

for tool in toolkit.get_tools():
    if tool.name not in unwanted_tools:
        tools.append(tool)
tools+= [
    Tool(
        name = "Search",
        func = DuckDuckGoSearchRun().run,
        description = "useful for when you need to search the web"
    )]
        
agent = initialize_agent(
    tools = tools,
    llm = ChatOpenAI(temperature=0.1),
    agent = AgentType.ZERO_SHOT_REACT_DESCRIPTION,
    verbose = True
)

Finally let's build a prompt and test it out!

In [73]:

# The GitHubAPIWrapper can be used outside of an agent, too
# This gets the info about issue number 9, since we want to
# force the agent to address this specific issue.

issue = github.get_issue(9)

prompt = f"""

agent.run(prompt)
