# GitHub Issues & PRs

Connect your GitHub account and OpenChamber can pull in issues and pull requests, start a session straight from one, and open or update PRs for you.

## Connect GitHub

1. Open **Settings → Git**.
2. Under GitHub, choose **Connect**. OpenChamber shows a link and a short code.
3. Open the link, enter the code, and approve.

When it's connected, your account shows under the GitHub section. You can connect more than one account and switch between them, or disconnect at any time.

## Start work from an issue or PR

When you create a [worktree session](/worktrees/) with GitHub connected, you can choose **Start from GitHub issue/PR**:

- pick an **issue** and OpenChamber names the branch after it and opens the session with the issue and its comments as the first message
- pick a **pull request** and it checks out the PR's branch; you can include the PR's diff so the agent has the full change

This drops you straight into a session with the context already loaded.

## Open and manage pull requests

From the **PR** tab in the [git view](/git/), you can create a pull request, update it, mark a draft as ready, or merge it. OpenChamber can generate the PR title and description from your changes.
