Works with AI assistants
Use GitHub Actions: its GitHub Actions Workflow Runs API lets you approve a first-time contributor's fork run in a single step (POST /repos/{owner}/{repo}/actions/runs/{run_id}/approve). GitHub Actions also has an MCP server, so an AI assistant like Claude or ChatGPT can do it for you. capabilities.work can help you get signed up and connected.

Say it to your AI assistant
- Approve the fork pull request run {run_id} in {owner}/{repo}.
