## Key Components
### 1. Token Exchange Process
The action uses a secure OIDC token exchange system:
1. **OIDC Token Generation**: `core.getIDToken("claude-code-github-action")`
2. **Token Exchange**: POST to `https://api.anthropic.com/api/github/github-app-token-exchange`
3. **Authentication**: Creates authenticated Octokit clients for GitHub API access
**Security Benefits:**
- Repository-scoped access
- Time-limited tokens
- Permission-limited (only configured GitHub App permissions)
- Automatic token masking in logs
### 2. Mode Detection
The action automatically detects the appropriate execution mode:
#### **Agent Mode**
- **Trigger**: Explicit `prompt` input provided
- **Use Case**: Direct automation, custom workflows
- **Behavior**: Minimal context, direct execution
- **Tracking**: No tracking comments
#### **Tag Mode**
- **Trigger**: @claude mentions, issue assignments, or labels
- **Use Case**: Interactive GitHub responses
- **Behavior**: Rich context, comprehensive GitHub data
- **Tracking**: Creates and updates tracking comments
### 3. Data Fetching (Tag Mode)
When in Tag Mode, the action fetches comprehensive GitHub context:
#### **Pull Request Data:**
- Comments and reviews (including inline comments)
- Changed files with SHAs
- Commit history and metadata
- Author information
- File diff data
#### **Issue Data:**
- Issue details and metadata
- All comments
- Author information
- Labels and assignments
#### **Image Processing:**
- Downloads images from GitHub
- Converts to base64 for Claude
- Maps original URLs to processed content
### 4. MCP Server Integration
The action sets up multiple MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers to provide Claude with GitHub capabilities:
#### **GitHub Actions Server**
- Access to workflow runs and CI data
- Build status and test results
- Artifact information
#### **GitHub Comment Server**
- Comment creation and updates
- Issue and PR comment management
#### **GitHub File Operations Server**
- File reading and writing
- Branch creation and management
- Commit operations
#### **GitHub Inline Comment Server**
- PR review comment operations
- Line-specific feedback
### 5. Prompt Generation
The action generates context-rich prompts based on the detected mode:
#### **Agent Mode Prompts:**
- Direct user prompt
- Minimal GitHub context
- Focused on specific task
#### **Tag Mode Prompts:**
- Comprehensive GitHub context
- PR/Issue details and history
- Changed files and diffs
- Comment threads and reviews
- Commit instructions and guidelines
### 6. Claude Execution
The action runs Claude Code through multiple provider options:
#### **Provider Support:**
- **Anthropic API** (default): Direct API access with API key
- **AWS Bedrock**: OIDC authentication with AWS credentials
- **GCP Vertex AI**: OIDC authentication with GCP credentials
#### **Execution Process:**
1. **Named Pipe Setup**: Creates pipe for prompt input
2. **Process Spawning**: Spawns Claude Code process
3. **Stream Processing**: Captures JSON stream output
4. **Tool Integration**: Enables MCP tools and GitHub operations
### 7. Post-Run Actions
After Claude execution, the action performs comprehensive cleanup and reporting:
#### **Comment Updates:**
- Updates tracking comments with results
- Adds job run links and execution metrics
- Includes branch and PR links when created
#### **Branch Management:**
- Checks for actual changes in Claude branches
- Deletes empty branches to avoid clutter
- Preserves branches with meaningful commits
#### **Report Generation:**
- Parses execution logs and conversation turns
- Formats tool usage and results
- Adds formatted report to GitHub step summary
#### **Security Cleanup:**
- Revokes GitHub App installation token
- Cleans up temporary files and processes
## Security Considerations
### **Access Control:**
- Repository-scoped permissions only
- Write access validation for actors
- Bot user controls and allowlists
### **Token Management:**
- Short-lived installation tokens
- Automatic token revocation after use
- Secure OIDC-based exchange
### **Permission Boundaries:**
- Limited to configured GitHub App permissions
- No cross-repository access
- Scoped to specific repository operations
## Integration Points
### **With Pullfrog:**
The Claude Code Action can be integrated with Pullfrog's workflow system, providing:
- Standardized agent interaction patterns
- Consistent GitHub integration
- Reusable authentication flows
- Common MCP server infrastructure
### **With GitHub:**
- Native GitHub Actions integration
- Comprehensive API coverage (REST + GraphQL)
- Proper webhook handling
- Standard GitHub UI integration
## Development Notes
### **Key Files:**
- `src/entrypoints/prepare.ts`: Main preparation logic
- `src/modes/`: Mode detection and handling
- `src/github/token.ts`: OIDC token exchange
- `src/mcp/`: MCP server implementations
- `base-action/`: Core Claude Code execution
### **Testing:**
- Unit tests for individual components
- Integration tests for full workflows
- Local testing with `act` tool
- Comprehensive fixture support
This architecture provides a robust, secure, and extensible foundation for Claude-GitHub integration while maintaining clear separation of concerns and comprehensive error handling.

# Pullfrog Action
GitHub Action for running Claude Code and other agents via Pullfrog.
GitHub Action for running AI agents via Pullfrog to automate development workflows.
> **📖 Claude Code Action Architecture**: For a detailed technical overview of how the Claude Code Action works (token exchange, modes, data fetching, execution flow), see [CLAUDE-ACTION.md](./CLAUDE-ACTION.md).
## What is Pullfrog?
## Quick Start
Pullfrog is a GitHub bot that brings the full power of your favorite coding agents into GitHub. It's open source and powered by GitHub Actions.
```bash
# Install dependencies
pnpm install
Once configured, you can start triggering agent runs.
- **Tag `@pullfrog`** — Tag `@pullfrog` in a comment anywhere in your repo. It will pull in any relevant context using the action's internal MCP server and perform the appropriate task.
- **Prompt from the web** — Trigger arbitrary tasks from the Pullfrog dashboard
- **Automated triggers** — Configure Pullfrog to trigger agent runs in response to specific events. Each of these triggers can be associated with custom prompt instructions.
- issue created
- issue labeled
- PR created
- PR review created
- PR review requested
- and more...
Pullfrog is the bridge between GitHub and your preferred coding agents and GitHub. Use it for:
- **Coding tasks** — Tell `@pullfrog` to implement something and it'll spin up a PR. If CI fails, it'll read the logs and attempt a fix automatically. It'll automatically address any PR reviews too.
- **PR review** — Coding agents are great at reviewing PRs. Using the "PR created" trigger, you can configure Pullfrog to auto-review new PRs.
- **Auto-respond to issues** — Via the "issue created" trigger, Pullfrog can automatically respond to common questions, create implementation plans, and link to related issues/PRs. Or (if you're feeling lucky) you can prompt it to immediately attempt a PR addressing new issues.
- **Documentation** —
- **Enforce best practices** — Want to have the agent automatically add docs to all new PRs?
Features
- **Agent-agnostic** — Switch between agents with the click of a radio button.
- **
## Get started
Install the Pullfrog GitHub App on your personal or organization account. During installation you can choose to limit access to a specific repo or repos. After installation, you'll be redirected to the Pullfrog dashboard where you'll see an onboarding flow. This flow will create your `pullfrog.yml` workflow and prompt you to set up API keys. Once you finish those steps (2 minutes) you're ready to rock 🐸
[Add to GitHub ➜]([https://](https://github.com/apps/pullfrog/installations/new))
<details>
<summary><strong>Manual Setup</strong></summary>
You can also use the `pullfrog/action` Action without a GitHub App installation. This is more time-consuming to set up, and it places limitations on the actions your Agent will be capable of performing.
To manually set up the Pullfrog action, you need to set up two workflow files in your repository: `pullfrog.yml` (the execution logic) and `triggers.yml` (the event triggers).
#### 1. Create `pullfrog.yml`
Create a file at `.github/workflows/pullfrog.yml`. This is a reusable workflow that runs the Pullfrog action.
```yaml
name: Pullfrog
on:
workflow_dispatch:
inputs:
prompt:
type: string
description: "Agent prompt"
workflow_call:
inputs:
prompt:
description: "Agent prompt"
type: string
permissions:
id-token: write
contents: read
jobs:
pullfrog:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
- name: Checkout code
uses: actions/checkout@v4
with:
fetch-depth: 1
- name: Run agent
uses: pullfrog/action@main # Use a specific version tag in production
with:
prompt: ${{ inputs.prompt }}
anthropic_api_key: ${{ secrets.ANTHROPIC_API_KEY }}
# Add other keys as needed:
# openai_api_key: ${{ secrets.OPENAI_API_KEY }}
```
## Testing with `play.ts`
#### 2. Create `triggers.yml`
```bash
pnpm play # Uses fixtures/play.txt
Create a file at `.github/workflows/triggers.yml`. This workflow listens for GitHub events and calls the `pullfrog.yml` workflow with the event data.
```yaml
name: Agent Triggers
on:
issue_comment:
types: [created]
pull_request_review_comment:
types: [created]
issues:
types: [opened, assigned]
pull_request_review:
types: [submitted]
# add other triggers as needed
jobs:
pullfrog:
# trigger conditions (e.g. only run if @pullfrog is mentioned)
if: contains(github.event.comment.body, '@pullfrog') || contains(github.event.issue.body, '@pullfrog')
permissions:
id-token: write
contents: write
issues: write
pull-requests: write
actions: read
checks: read
uses: ./.github/workflows/pullfrog.yml
with:
# pass the full event payload as the prompt
prompt: ${{ toJSON(github.event) }}
secrets: inherit
```
- Clones the scratch repository to `.temp`
- Runs Claude Code directly on your machine
- Fast iteration for development
