GitHub
For teams whose work includes building things, GitHub holds decisions that never make it into a document: why an approach was chosen, what a client asked for mid-sprint, how a component is meant to be used.
Connect it
Sources → GitHub → Connect, and authorise with your GitHub account. Vythos lists the repositories you can see; choose the ones to sync.
What gets synced
- Documentation — the repository's README and the Markdown in its
docs/folder. - Issues — titles and descriptions, most recently updated first, open and closed.
The text goes into your memory, where Ask can search it. Nothing from GitHub becomes a rule.
When it's worth connecting
- You maintain a product alongside client work and want its decisions searchable.
- Your delivery process lives in a repository rather than in Notion.
- Client feedback arrives as issues.
If your repositories are only code, the value is small: Vythos reads prose, not source files.
Syncing again
On demand, from the Sources page. Re-syncing replaces what changed rather than duplicating it.
Access and privacy
Vythos sees what the account you connected can see. Private repositories stay private: their text goes into your memory, which nobody else in the workspace can search.
Disconnecting removes Vythos's access to GitHub.
