GitHub Reader (discussions and diffs)

v2026.9.6: a GitHub reader brings public discussions and diffs beside chat. That is a read-side panel, not a replacement for the webhook-to-Telegram flow on PR review automation.

Treat GitHub HTML and review comments as untrusted input. Same class of risk as browser control. Do not give the reader agent unrestricted git push.

When to use the reader

  • You are in Control UI or a channel and want the discussion or diff in the same window.
  • The repo is public, or the Gateway already has a token with the least scope you can stand. Credentials.

When to keep the webhook use case

If you need “new PR → summarize → Telegram,” that is still the development use case: inbound webhook, isolated agent, no requirement that someone have the Control UI open. Link the two: reader for humans sitting in the UI, webhook for 24/7 notify.
