The orientation you'd write for yourself — if you ever remembered to.
What it actually does
- Catch up across your repos. Pull requests opened, issues filed, notifications worth knowing about — 1Presence reads across the repositories you own and contribute to and tells you the shape of the week in plain English.
- Find the change without the commit hash. Ask for the moment a function changed, a config was added, a bug was fixed — it searches code, commits and pull requests and summarises what landed and where.
- Get oriented before you have to. Coming back to a project after a break? It reads the README, the docs folder and the recent tree, and gives you the lay of the land.
- Open work when you ask. File an issue, create a branch from any base, or open a pull request — from the conversation, on request.
Reads the repo, not just the file
1Presence can list a directory or the full tree, read a file at any branch or tag, and search across repositories — so "what does this project do and where does the auth live" is one question, not an afternoon of clicking.
Wire it to a scheduled workflow and it becomes a morning digest: what merged overnight, which issues mention something you care about, which PRs are waiting on you — delivered before you open the laptop.
Try asking
From orientation to action, in chat:
Reads PRs, issues and notifications and gives you a plain-English digest.
Searches code and commits, summarises the change, and names the PR that landed it.
Reads the README and the tree and orients you in a few sentences.
Creates the issue with your title, body and label, then links it back.
Read-only, or let it write
Connection is through GitHub's own login. You choose the level: read-only across your public work, or full access that includes your private repositories and the ability to create issues, branches, pull requests and file commits.
Writing happens only when you ask for it — there is no autonomous committing, and nothing touches a repo you have not pointed it at. The token is stored in encrypted secret management and revocable in one tap, here or from GitHub's own settings.
How access works
Read the project. Act on request.
Browse repos, search code and commits, and get oriented in plain English — then, when you grant it, open issues, branches and pull requests from the conversation. Private repos stay private until you choose full access.
