Connect GitHub to Slack

Automate GitHub and Slack with AI

Operator.io runs your personal agent on OpenClaw and points it at both GitHub and Slack. It can watch a repo and post new pull requests and issues into the channel your team reads, then let anyone triage from chat by asking it to label, assign, or summarize what changed. Ask for the state of a repo and it reads GitHub and answers in the thread.

It reaches both apps directly or through connectors like Composio MCP and Pipedream MCP, which handle the sign in and token refresh, so there is no Zap to build and no API keys to paste.

What your agent can do with GitHub and Slack

What your agent does in GitHub

  • Abort Repository Migration

    Tool to abort a repository migration that is queued or in progress. Use when you need to cancel an ongoing migration operation.

  • Accept a repository invitation

    Accepts a PENDING repository invitation that has been issued to the authenticated user.

  • Add a repository collaborator

  • Add assignees to an issue

    Adds assignees to a GitHub issue. This action only adds users - it does not remove existing assignees. Changes are silently ignored if the authenticated user lacks push access to the repository.

  • Add email for auth user

    Adds one or more email addresses (which will be initially unverified) to the authenticated user's GitHub account; use this to associate new emails, noting an email verified for another account will error, while an existing email for the...

How it works

Tell the agent what you want to happen between GitHub and Slack, for example to watch one and act in the other, or to keep the two in step. It reads what it needs from GitHub, works out what to do, and runs the matching action in Slack without you mapping a single field.

You can have it run once, on a schedule, or whenever something changes. Ask it for a status any time and it reads the latest from both apps back to you in the same chat.

Common questions about GitHub and Slack

How do I connect GitHub and Slack to Operator?
You authorize GitHub and Slack once each from your Operator dashboard. Operator holds both connections and refreshes the access tokens for you, so your agent keeps working across them without you signing in again.
What can my agent do across GitHub and Slack?
Tell it the job and it moves between GitHub and Slack as one task, choosing which actions to run on each side. There is nothing to map and no trigger to configure; you give instructions the way you would to a person.
Can my agent keep GitHub and Slack in sync?
Yes. It can watch GitHub and act in Slack, or keep both in step, reading from one and running the matching update in the other. This runs on demand when you ask or on a schedule you set.
Do I need to build a workflow or write code?
No. There is no workflow to build, no fields to map, and no API keys to paste. Operator manages both connections, and you give the agent instructions in plain language.
