Integrations

Arcane Engine integrates with your favorite tools and services to avoid context switching and streamline your workflow. By connecting Arcane Engine with other platforms, you can automate repetitive tasks, improve collaboration, and enhance your development process. You can add new integrations using the dashboard.

Here are some of the key integrations that Arcane Engine supports:

Github

GitHub integration is at the core of Arcane Engine. It allows Arcane Engine to interact with your repositories, issues and pull requests.

🔍 Searching for Issues and PRs

Finding information in Github issues and PRs can be time-consuming, especially when you have a large number of them. Arcane Engine can help you search for specific issues or pull requests based on keywords, labels, or other criteria:

prompt="Find all issues labeled 'critical', read them and summarize them."
pilot task -o critical_issues.md $prompt

📝 Creating New Issues and PRs

Creating new issues and pull requests in Github can be a tedious process, especially when you have to provide detailed information and assign the right labels. Now, you can create new issues in seconds without leaving your editor or terminal:

pilot task "The AwesomeClass implementation needs refactoring. Read the code and create a new issue with the necessary details."

🧠 Deep Context Awareness

You can also interact with Arcane Engine directly from your Github issues and pull requests. By saying pilot <prompt> in a comment, you can trigger a task and get the results right in the Github interface.

For example, you can comment on code changes in a PR and ask for adjustments:

First pilot command

To give you the best results, Arcane Engine uses the context of the issue or pull request to understand what you need:

  • The title and description of the issue or pull request

  • Any comments made

  • The files changed in the pull request

Slack

For many development teams, Slack is the central hub of communication. This provides a number of challenges:

  • Context Switching: Developers need to switch between Slack and their development environment to get information or perform actions.

  • Lost Information: Important discussions and decisions can get lost in the noise of Slack channels.

  • Manual Updates: Keeping team members informed about project updates and changes can be time-consuming.

Arcane Engine can help address these challenges by interacting with Slack for you. Connecting Arcane Engine to your Slack workspace adds new capabilities to its arsenal that you can use in your prompts:

🔍 Searching for Slack Messages

Instantly search for specific keywords or messages in your Slack channels and correlate them with your code or issues.

pilot task "Search for bug-related messages on Slack, then find related issues on GitHub and Linear"

💬 Posting Messages to Slack

A common pattern is to use dedicated channels for specific topics or projects, e.g.:

  • #monitoring for monitoring and alerts

  • #releases for release announcements

  • #bugs for bug reports

Enabling the Slack integration allows Arcane Engine to relay information to the right channels:

# Run this as a cron job to post daily bug reports to the #bugs-daily channel
REPOS=("my-org/backend" "my-org/frontend")
PROMPT="Find all 'bug' issues created yesterday, summarize and post them to #bugs-daily on Slack."
for repo in "${REPOS[@]}"; do
  pilot --repo=$repo task $PROMPT
done

Linear

Linear is a modern issue tracking tool that helps development teams manage their projects efficiently. By integrating Arcane Engine with Linear, you can automate various tasks related to issue management, project tracking, and team collaboration.

🔍 Searching your Workspace

Linear provides a powerful search functionality that allows you to find specific issues, comments, or projects quickly. By connecting Arcane Engine to Linear, you can leverage this search capability in your prompts:

pilot task "Find all comments made on Linear for team Arcane Engine in the last 24 hours. Summarize and send them to #daily on Slack."

📝 Creating New Issues

Creating new issues in Linear can be a time-consuming task, especially when you have to provide detailed information and assign the right labels. Arcane Engine can automate this process by generating new issues based on specific prompts:

prompt="People have understanding the new ProblemSolver class I wrote. \
1. Find the class in our code and read it \
2. Search slack for messages mentioning the class \
3. Create a Linear issue for documenting the class\nThe issue should include a summary of the class, the messages from slack, and a link to the code."
pilot task $prompt

Benefits:

  • Stay in the flow: No need to switch between tools to gather information

  • Save time: Arcane Engine finds, compiles, formats and posts the information for you

  • Control: Customize the prompt with more specific requirements and instructions to get the results you need

Sentry

Sentry is a popular error tracking tool that helps developers monitor and fix crashes in real-time. By integrating Arcane Engine with Sentry, you can automate various tasks related to error tracking, bug analysis, and reporting.

🐛 Bug Analysis
