🤖 Installing Claude Code GitHub App

This PR adds a GitHub Actions workflow that enables Claude Code integration in our repository.

What is Claude Code?

Claude Code is an AI coding agent that can help with:

  • Bug fixes and improvements
  • Documentation updates
  • Implementing new features
  • Code reviews and suggestions
  • Writing tests
  • And more!

How it works

Once this PR is merged, we'll be able to interact with Claude by mentioning @claude in a pull request or issue comment.
Once the workflow is triggered, Claude will analyze the comment and surrounding context, and execute on the request in a GitHub action.

Important Notes

  • This workflow won't take effect until this PR is merged
  • @claude mentions won't work until after the merge is complete
  • The workflow runs automatically whenever Claude is mentioned in PR or issue comments
  • Claude gets access to the entire PR or issue context including files, diffs, and previous comments

Security

  • Our Anthropic API key is securely stored as a GitHub Actions secret
  • Only users with write access to the repository can trigger the workflow
  • All Claude runs are stored in the GitHub Actions run history
  • Claude's default tools are limited to reading/writing files and interacting with our repo by creating comments, branches, and commits.
  • We can add more allowed tools by adding them to the workflow file like:
allowed_tools: Bash(npm install),Bash(npm run build),Bash(npm run lint),Bash(npm run test)

There's more information in the Claude Code action repo.

After merging this PR, let's try mentioning @claude in a comment on any PR to get started!

jantman and others added 3 commits April 13, 2026 21:00
Upgrade permissions from read to write for contents, pull-requests, and
issues in the main workflow so Claude can push commits, create PRs, and
comment. Add allowed_tools covering gcc/make (C compilation), pip/python
(Python package management), git/gh (version control and GitHub CLI),
apt-get (system deps), and common file inspection commands.

Also upgrade pull-requests to write in the review workflow so the
code-review plugin can post review comments.
