Dave

Dave can read your code, open pull requests, and comment on them.

Connect

Section titled “Connect”

  1. In Dave, go to Integrations → Add integration → GitHub. A popup opens on GitHub.

  2. Choose where to install — pick the organization that owns the repositories. Installing on an organization requires being an owner; otherwise GitHub turns your approval into a request.

  3. Choose which repositories: Only select repositories, or All repositories. This is the access boundary, and Dave cannot widen it from inside the product.

  4. Approve the install, then wait. GitHub confirms over a webhook rather than in the redirect, so there is a short gap before the connection goes Active.

To change the repository list later, use the organization’s Settings → GitHub Apps → the Dave app → Configure, or Connect again.

Selecting repositories

Section titled “Selecting repositories”

After connecting, choose which of the granted repositories Dave should work in. This narrows Dave’s attention; it does not change the App grant.

Webhooks

Section titled “Webhooks”

GitHub posts to a dedicated inbound endpoint, which is how Dave learns about repository events.
