Let Your Agent Set Up GitHits for You

GitHits released a new onboarding skill that lets coding agents create accounts, configure tools, and guide setup from a single prompt. The githits-onboarding skill enables agents to walk users through the setup process, including authentication and tool configuration, without switching to the CLI. This simplifies the onboarding experience by letting agents handle more of the setup work.

Install the GitHits onboarding skill so your agent can create your account, configure supported tools, and guide setup from one prompt.

GitHits already has a CLI setup flow that can create your account, sign you in, and configure your coding agents. Because that flow runs in the terminal, your agent can help drive it too. The new ** githits-onboarding** skill gives your agent the instructions it needs to walk you through setup from a single prompt.

Install the onboarding skill #

Start by running the GitHits init flow:

npx githits@latest init

When the CLI asks what you want to do, choose the option to use agent skills. Then install ** githits-onboarding** for the scope you want. In the walkthrough, the skill is installed at the project level before opening OpenCode.

Ask your agent to configure GitHits #

Once the skill is installed, open your coding agent and ask it to set up GitHits:

Create an account and configure my tools to use GitHits.

The agent loads the onboarding skill and starts the same setup path you would normally run yourself. Instead of switching back to the CLI for every choice, the agent asks the setup questions in the agent session.

Let the agent guide the setup questions #

The onboarding skill helps the agent explain the choices that matter during setup. It can ask whether you want user-level or project-level configuration, scan for compatible tools, and confirm which detected agents should be configured.

In the video, the agent configures GitHits at the user level and then sets up all detected tools. After confirmation, it writes the local configuration needed for those agents to use GitHits.

Complete sign-in or sign-up #

After tool configuration, the agent guides the authentication step. Existing users can sign in and authorize the CLI. New users can create an account in the same browser flow, then return to the agent session.

When auth completes, the agent verifies that GitHits is connected and ready to use.

Start using GitHits #

With one installed skill and one prompt to your coding agent, GitHits can scan compatible agents, configure your selected tools, and complete the auth flow. The result is the same source-grounded GitHits setup, but with your agent handling more of the onboarding work for you.
