KintsugiBot: an open-source GitHub agent that turns issues into pull requests

I’ve been building KintsugiBot, an open-source GitHub agent for turning issues into pull requests.

The idea is straightforward: when an issue is opened, KintsugiBot reads the repository, investigates the problem, attempts a fix, runs checks where possible, and opens a PR for the maintainer to review.

It is designed to be language-agnostic, not tied to one stack. The quality of the result depends on the repo structure, tests, issue detail, and how much context the bot can safely inspect.

Repo:
https://github.com/Suh0161/Kintsugibot

I’m sharing it early because I want feedback from people who maintain repos, build GitHub Apps, or work on AI coding agents.

The project is still improving, but the direction is clear: less “AI chat about code”, more automated issue investigation and reviewable PRs.

Contributions, feedback, and test repos are welcome.

Good first issues:
