The GitHub integration lets Roomote access selected repositories, review pull requests, create branches, open pull requests, and respond to repository events. Repository-changing work still flows through normal GitHub review paths.

Setup

1

Install the GitHub app

Connect GitHub during onboarding or from Settings. Choose the organization and repositories Roomote should be able to access.
2

Create an environment

During onboarding, pick the first repositories and let Roomote start the environment setup task. Later, add connected repositories to more environments as needed.
3

Enable automations if needed

Admins can turn on review, conflict-resolution, or other repository automations from Settings.

What Roomote can do

  • review pull requests
  • answer or act on @roomote mentions
  • create implementation branches and pull requests
  • inspect repository context during tasks
  • use pull request and issue context when a task starts from GitHub
  • help with merge conflicts and follow-up fixes when the relevant automation is enabled
  • suggest improvements from PR feedback and recurring repository signals

Pull request follow-up

Mention Roomote on a pull request when you want another review pass or a follow-up change. Roomote links the GitHub conversation to a Roomote task so you can inspect the full run in the dashboard. You can mention Roomote in a normal pull request comment, an inline review thread, or the text of a submitted review such as Requested changes.
A linked personal GitHub account is optional. If a teammate has not linked GitHub in Personal Settings, Roomote still opens the pull request through the shared GitHub App, so GitHub shows the Roomote GitHub App as the PR author or assignee. The PR description may still mention that teammate’s Roomote display name for context.
Good GitHub asks include:
  • “Review this PR for regressions.”
  • “Apply the feedback from this thread.”
  • “Fix the merge conflict on this PR.”
  • “Explain whether this change needs a migration.”
  • “Open a follow-up PR for the missing test coverage.”
Roomote only works with repositories and permissions granted through the GitHub App installation.
