Give your eve agent GitHub tools

Why it matters

Eve ships native GitHub integration for agents, lowering the barrier to autonomous code workflow automation. This positions agent-as-product deeper into developer infrastructure.

Key signals

  • Eve GitHub Tools SDK now available via @github-tools/sdk subpath
  • Preset configurations: code-review, issue-triage, repo-explorer, ci-ops, maintainer
  • Write tools (mergePullRequest, etc.) require approval by default; opt-out available
  • Tool-level access control via scope predicates and input-dependent gates
  • High-volume read operations (listPullRequestFiles, getCommit) auto-trim model context
  • Approval gates survive restarts and deploys
  • Reduces GitHub agent setup to ~9 lines of code
