This AI agent works with GitHub repository content. It creates or updates files, looks up file content, and looks up commits, commit information, and commit comments.

## Workflow {#inth-github-github-source-code-management-ai-agent__uuwospbvombw}

The agent helps the user read, change, and review files and commits in a GitHub repository.

1. Ask the user what they want to do and collect the details the action needs, such as the repository, branch, and file path.
2. Look up the content of a file.
3. Create or update a file.
4. Look up the commits on a repository or a commit's information by ID.
5. Look up the comments on a commit.
6. Report the outcome to the user, including details of any error.
