Integrations¶
PR Pilot integrates with your favorite tools and services to avoid context switching and streamline your workflow. By connecting PR Pilot with other platforms, you can automate repetitive tasks, improve collaboration, and enhance your development process. You can add new integrations using the dashboard.
Here are some of the key integrations that PR Pilot supports:
Github¶
GitHub integration is at the core of PR Pilot. It allows PR Pilot to interact with your repositories, issues and pull requests.
🔍 Searching for Issues and PRs¶
Finding information in Github issues and PRs can be time-consuming, especially when you have a large number of them. PR Pilot can help you search for specific issues or pull requests based on keywords, labels, or other criteria:
prompt="Find all issues labeled 'critical', read them and summarize them."
pilot task -o critical_issues.md $prompt
📝 Creating New Issues and PRs¶
Creating new issues and pull requests in Github can be a tedious process, especially when you have to provide detailed information and assign the right labels. Now, you can create new issues in seconds without leaving your editor or terminal:
pilot task "The AwesomeClass implementation needs refactoring. Read the code and create a new issue with the necessary details."
🧠 Deep Context Awareness¶
You can also interact with PR Pilot directly from your Github issues and pull requests. By saying pilot <prompt> in a comment, you can trigger a task and get the results right in the Github interface.
For example, you can comment on code changes in a PR and ask for adjustments:
To give you the best results, PR Pilot uses the context of the issue or pull request to understand what you need:
The title and description of the issue or pull request
Any comments made
The files changed in the pull request
Slack¶
For many development teams, Slack is the central hub of communication. This provides a number of challenges:
Context Switching: Developers need to switch between Slack and their development environment to get information or perform actions.
Lost Information: Important discussions and decisions can get lost in the noise of Slack channels.
Manual Updates: Keeping team members informed about project updates and changes can be time-consuming.
PR Pilot can help address these challenges by interacting with Slack for you. Connecting PR Pilot to your Slack workspace adds new capabilities to its arsenal that you can use in your prompts:
🔍 Searching for Slack Messages¶
Instantly search for specific keywords or messages in your Slack channels and correlate them with your code or issues.
pilot task "Search for bug-related messages on Slack, then find related issues on GitHub and Linear"
💬 Posting Messages to Slack¶
A common pattern is to use dedicated channels for specific topics or projects, e.g.:
#monitoringfor monitoring and alerts#releasesfor release announcements#bugsfor bug reports
Enabling the Slack integration allows PR Pilot to relay information to the right channels:
# Run this as a cron job to post daily bug reports to the #bugs-daily channel
REPOS=("my-org/backend" "my-org/frontend")
PROMPT="Find all 'bug' issues created yesterday, summarize and post them to #bugs-daily on Slack."
for repo in "${REPOS[@]}"; do
pilot --repo=$repo task $PROMPT
done
Linear¶
Linear is a modern issue tracking tool that helps development teams manage their projects efficiently. By integrating PR Pilot with Linear, you can automate various tasks related to issue management, project tracking, and team collaboration.
🔍 Searching your Workspace¶
Linear provides a powerful search functionality that allows you to find specific issues, comments, or projects quickly. By connecting PR Pilot to Linear, you can leverage this search capability in your prompts:
pilot task "Find all comments made on Linear for team PR Pilot in the last 24 hours. Summarize and send them to #daily on Slack."
📝 Creating New Issues¶
Creating new issues in Linear can be a time-consuming task, especially when you have to provide detailed information and assign the right labels. PR Pilot can automate this process by generating new issues based on specific prompts:
prompt="People have understanding the new ProblemSolver class I wrote. \
1. Find the class in our code and read it \
2. Search slack for messages mentioning the class \
3. Create a Linear issue for documenting the class\nThe issue should include a summary of the class, the messages from slack, and a link to the code."
pilot task $prompt
Benefits:
Stay in the flow: No need to switch between tools to gather information
Save time: PR Pilot finds, compiles, formats and posts the information for you
Control: Customize the prompt with more specific requirements and instructions to get the results you need
Sentry¶
Sentry is a popular error tracking tool that helps developers monitor and fix crashes in real-time. By integrating PR Pilot with Sentry, you can automate various tasks related to error tracking, bug analysis, and reporting.
