GitHub Actions

The GitHub Actions connector is a deeper read surface on top of the same GITHUB_PAT used by the GitHub connector, focused on workflows, runs, jobs, and logs. It also exposes two HITL-gated write tools for triggering and cancelling runs.

Authenticate

Section titled “Authenticate”

The GitHub Actions connector reuses the same Vault key as the GitHub connector — github.pat — and is injected at spawn as GITHUB_PAT. Authenticate once; both connectors work.
