Error handling
The method throws errors in the following scenarios:
Initialization Error
throw new Error("Agent not initialized")

Using with Different Agents
// Works with any agent type
const vibekitClaude = new VibeKit()
.withAgent({ type: "claude", provider: "anthropic", model: "claude-sonnet-4-20250514", apiKey: "..." })
.withSecrets({ GH_TOKEN: process.env.GITHUB_TOKEN })
.withSandbox(sandbox);
const vibekitCodex = new VibeKit()
.withAgent({ type: "codex", provider: "openai", model: "codex-mini-latest", apiKey: "..." })
.withSecrets({ GH_TOKEN: process.env.GITHUB_TOKEN })
.withSandbox(sandbox);
// Both agents support createPullRequest (now requires repository parameter)
await vibekitClaude.cloneRepository("your-org/your-repo");
await vibekitClaude.createPullRequest("your-org/your-repo");
await vibekitCodex.cloneRepository("your-org/your-repo");
await vibekitCodex.createPullRequest("your-org/your-repo");
Notes
- The pull request is automatically labeled with the agent type (‘codex’, ‘claude’, ‘opencode’, or ‘gemini’) to indicate which agent created it
- Ensure your GitHub token has the necessary permissions to create pull requests in the target repository
- The method creates a new branch for the pull request automatically
- Code changes must be generated before calling this method
- Repository must be explicitly cloned using
cloneRepository() before generating code
- When using
branchPrefix, the final branch name will be in the format {branchPrefix}/{generated-suffix}
- The
labelOptions parameter creates a new label if it doesn’t exist in the repository and applies it to the pull request
- The response includes the complete GitHub API pull request data, allowing access to detailed information like user details, branch information, timestamps, and merge status
- The
repository parameter is now required and specifies which repository to create the pull request in
