Version control integrations

GitHub setup

Faheem Code automatically exports a GITHUB_TOKEN to the shell environment if provided:

Setting up a GitHub token
  1. Generate a Personal Access Token (PAT):
  • On GitHub, go to Settings > Developer Settings > Personal Access Tokens.
  • Tokens (classic)
    • Required scopes:
      • repo (Full control of private repositories)
  • Fine-grained tokens
    • All Repositories (You can select specific repositories, but this will impact what returns in repo search)
    • Minimal Permissions (Select Meta Data = Read-only read for search, Pull Requests = Read and Write and Content = Read and Write for branch creation)
  1. Enter token in Faheem Code:
  • Navigate to the Settings > Integrations page.
  • Paste your token in the GitHub Token field.
  • Click Save Changes to apply the changes.

If you're working with organizational repositories, additional setup may be required:

  1. Check organization requirements:
  • Organization admins may enforce specific token policies.
  • Some organizations require tokens to be created with SSO enabled.
  • Review your organization's token policy settings.
  1. Verify organization access:
  • Go to your token settings on GitHub.
  • Look for the organization under Organization access.
  • If required, click Enable SSO next to your organization.
  • Complete the SSO authorization process.
Troubleshooting
  • Token Not Recognized:

    • Check that the token hasn't expired.
    • Verify the token has the required scopes.
    • Try regenerating the token.
  • Organization Access Denied:

    • Check if SSO is required but not enabled.
    • Verify organization membership.
    • Contact organization admin if token policies are blocking access.

GitLab setup

Faheem Code automatically exports a GITLAB_TOKEN to the shell environment if provided:

Setting up a GitLab token
  1. Generate a Personal Access Token (PAT):
  • On GitLab, go to User Settings > Access Tokens.
  • Create a new token with the following scopes:
    • api (API access)
    • read_user (Read user information)
    • read_repository (Read repository)
    • write_repository (Write repository)
  • Set an expiration date or leave it blank for a non-expiring token.
  1. Enter token in Faheem Code:
  • Navigate to the Settings > Integrations page.
  • Paste your token in the GitLab Token field.
  • Click Save Changes to apply the changes.
  1. (Optional): Restrict agent permissions
  • Create another PAT using Step 1 and exclude api scope .
  • In the Settings > Secrets page, create a new secret GITLAB_TOKEN and paste your lower scope token.
  • Faheem Code will use the higher scope token, and the agent will use the lower scope token.
Troubleshooting
  • Token Not Recognized:

    • Check that the token hasn't expired.
    • Verify the token has the required scopes.
  • Access Denied:

    • Verify project access permissions.
    • Check if the token has the necessary scopes.
    • For group/organization repositories, ensure you have proper access.

Bitbucket setup

Setting up a Bitbucket password
  1. Generate an App password:
    • On Bitbucket, go to Account Settings > App Password.
    • Create a new password with the following scopes:
      • account: read
      • repository: write
      • pull requests: write
      • issues: write
    • App passwords are non-expiring token. Faheem Code will migrate to using API tokens in the future.
  2. Enter token in Faheem Code:
  • Navigate to the Settings > Integrations page.
  • Paste your token in the BitBucket Token field.
  • Click Save Changes to apply the changes.
Troubleshooting
  • Token Not Recognized:
    • Check that the token hasn't expired.
    • Verify the token has the required scopes.
