How to hand a GitHub issue to an agent on a chosen machine with Muxin

Pick an issue in Muxin and start an agent on the machine you choose to work on it.

Short answer: Open Muxin and sync GitHub with ⇧⌘R, after your gh login is in place; then open the GitHub page and find the issue or pull request in your inbox or repository list; Click the button to hand the issue to an agent and choose the machine you want it to run on. All steps.

Authorization notice. Muxin is dual-use. Only use it on software, sites and systems you own or have explicit permission to test.

Credentials. The agent runs on your machine with your gh login and ssh access, so only hand issues from repositories you trust to that machine.

Who it is forA maintainer who triages issues and wants an agent to start work on a specific machine that has the right tools or hardware.

The problemStarting an agent on the right machine for an issue means switching between GitHub, a terminal and the machine by hand.

The outcomeAn agent session starts on the machine you picked, working on the issue you handed over, and you can follow it in the sidebar.

What you need first

  • A Mac, Linux or Windows 11 machine to run Muxin on, with the app installed from the latest release or built from source
  • SSH access to each target machine using your system ssh, keys or ~/.ssh/config aliases
  • A GitHub login through the gh tool if you want GitHub inbox, issue and runner features
  • For self-hosted runners, a GitHub organization you can register runners with

Steps

  1. Open Muxin and sync GitHub with ⇧⌘R, after your gh login is in place.
  2. Open the GitHub page and find the issue or pull request in your inbox or repository list.
  3. Click the button to hand the issue to an agent and choose the machine you want it to run on.
  4. Watch the session in the sidebar, where a spinner shows while the agent works and a colored dot shows when it wants you.
  5. Review the agent's changes in the workspace or pull request before you merge anything.

Prompt for your agent

Using the Muxin repo at LumaryLabsLLC/muxin, hand the GitHub issue <issue-url> to an agent on the machine <machine-name> from the GitHub page in the app. Report the session name and the machine it started on, then confirm the session appears under that machine in the sidebar.

Caveat. The README says GitHub access uses your gh login, so the issue hand-off works only after gh is signed in on the computer running Muxin.
