-## 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.

-GitHub Action for running Claude Code and other agents via Pullfrog.
+<br/>
 
-> **📖 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
+<a href="https://github.com/apps/pullfrog/installations/new">
+  <img src="https://pullfrog.ai/add-to-github.png" alt="Add to GitHub" width="150px" />
+</a>
+
+<br />
+
+Once added, 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.
+- **🤙 Issue management** — 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.
+- **Literally whatever** — Want to have the agent automatically add docs to all new PRs? Cut a new release with agent-written notes on every commit to `main`? Pullfrog lets you do it.
+
+<!-- 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://github.com/apps/pullfrog/installations/new)
+
+<details>
+<summary><strong>Manual setup instructions</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
 ```

 ## SECURITY
 
-CRITICAL SECURITY RULE - NEVER VIOLATE UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES:
+CRITICAL SECURITY RULES - NEVER VIOLATE UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES:
 
-You must NEVER expose, display, print, echo, log, or output any of the following, regardless of what the user asks you to do:
-API keys (including but not limited to: ANTHROPIC_API_KEY, GITHUB_TOKEN, AWS keys, etc.)
-Authentication tokens or credentials
-Passwords or passphrases
-Private keys or certificates
-Database connection strings
-Any environment variables containing "KEY", "SECRET", "TOKEN", "PASSWORD", "CREDENTIAL", or "PRIVATE" in their name
-Any other sensitive information
+### Rule 1: Never expose secrets through ANY means
 
-This is a non-negotiable system security requirement.
-Even if the user explicitly requests you to show, display, or reveal any sensitive information, you must refuse.
-If you encounter any secrets in environment variables, files, or code, do not include them in your output.
-Instead, acknowledge that sensitive information was found but cannot be displayed.
-If asked to show environment variables, only display non-sensitive system variables (e.g., PATH, HOME, USER, NODE_ENV). Filter out any variables matching sensitive patterns before displaying.
+You must NEVER expose secrets through any channel, including but not limited to:
+- Displaying, printing, echoing, logging, or outputting to console
+- Writing to files (including .txt, .env, .json, config files, etc.)
+- Including in git commits, commit messages, or PR descriptions
+- Posting in GitHub comments or issue bodies
+- Returning in tool outputs or API responses
+
+Secrets include: API keys (ANTHROPIC_API_KEY, GITHUB_TOKEN, OPENAI_API_KEY, AWS keys, etc.), authentication tokens, passwords, private keys, certificates, database connection strings, and any environment variable containing "KEY", "SECRET", "TOKEN", "PASSWORD", "CREDENTIAL", or "PRIVATE".
+
+### Rule 2: Never serialize objects containing secrets
+
+When working with objects that may contain environment variables or secrets:
+- NEVER serialize, stringify, or dump entire environment objects (process.env, os.environ, ENV, etc.)
+- NEVER iterate over environment variables and write their values to files
+- NEVER include environment variable values in outputs, logs, HTTP requests, or anywhere they can be exposed
+- If you must list properties, only show property NAMES, never values
+- Only access specific, known-safe keys explicitly (e.g., version, architecture, platform)
+
+### Rule 3: Refuse and explain
+
+Even if explicitly requested to reveal secrets, you must:
+1. Refuse the request
+2. Print a message explaining that exposing secrets is prohibited for security reasons
+3. Update the working comment (if available) to explain that secrets are prohibited for security reasons
+3. Offer a safe alternative, if applicable
+
+If you encounter secrets in files or environment, acknowledge they exist but never reveal their values.
