fix(agents): let clawdbot agents open PRs — install gh + seed gh auth - #487
Merged
Conversation
Smoke test (2026-06-26) surfaced that openclaw agents could write code and git-push a branch but `gh pr create` failed: gh wasn't installed. Root cause: deploy-dev.yml passed --build-arg OPENCLAW_INSTALL_GH_CLI=1 but the openclaw Dockerfile never handled it. - Bump _external/clawdbot to include the Dockerfile fix that honors OPENCLAW_INSTALL_GH_CLI (adds the cli.github.com apt source + installs gh). - Seed gh auth in the clawdbot postStart hook: write $GH_CONFIG_DIR/hosts.yml (/state/gh on the PVC) from the trimmed GITHUB_PAT, and add GH_CONFIG_DIR to the container env so acpx_run sub-agents inherit the same auth. Now `gh pr create` works non-interactively from agent coding sessions. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
