Why it matters

The GitHub integration grounds documentation workflows in repository context. It helps Docpipe search, read, and cite code while leaving the repository itself unchanged.

What the integration makes possible.

Each capability is useful on its own. Together, they make documentation easier to create, trust, and reuse.

01

Select repositories

Choose which installed repositories become available to approved research workflows.

02

Index useful context

Prepare code files and metadata for semantic and exact search.

03

Research deeply

Trace system behavior across files, symbols, and related internal documentation.

04

Create cited docs

Write the result into a Docpipe space with source references.

02

How it works

A clear path from work to trusted knowledge.

No content graveyard. No magic black box. Each step has an understandable output and owner.

01

Install the GitHub App

Authorize access to the repositories you choose.

02

Index

Docpipe prepares supported repository content for search.

03

Survey or research

Run an exhaustive inventory or an open-ended technical investigation.

04

Review the document

Open the resulting write-up and verify its citations.

Common questions

What teams ask before they start.

Does Docpipe write to our repositories?+

No. The current GitHub integration is used to index selected content for search and documentation workflows.

How often is repository content refreshed?+

Refresh behavior depends on the current indexing schedule and webhook configuration. Confirm the production cadence during setup.

Are secrets indexed?+

The indexer includes safeguards and file filters, but organizations should still follow standard secret-management practices and review repository selection carefully.
