GitHub ACTION

Create Issue Comment

Add a comment to an existing issue or pull request (GitHub treats PRs as issues for comments, so the same number works for both). Provide the repository as an owner/repo string, the issue/PR number, and the comment body. If you only know the issue/PR by title, call Search Issues and Pull Requests first to resolve its number.

IMPLEMENTATION

Call this tool

Connect a user's GitHub account once, then configure and run Create Issue Comment from your backend or agent.

import { PipedreamClient } from "@pipedream/sdk"

const pd = new PipedreamClient({
  projectId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_PROJECT_ID!,
  clientId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_ID!,
  clientSecret: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_SECRET!,
  projectEnvironment: "production",
})

const result = await pd.actions.run({
  id: "github-create-issue-comment",
  externalUserId: "{external_user_id}", // any stable ID for this user in your system
  configuredProps: {
    github: { authProvisionId: "apn_xxxxxxx" },
    repoFullname: "Repository",
    issueNumber: 10,
  },
})

console.log(result)

SCHEMA

Inputs

Pipedream supplies the connected account. Your application provides the operation-specific values below. Dynamic inputs are resolved against that user's account.

Create Issue Comment inputs
Property Type Description
repoFullname Repository string
The repository in owner/repo format, for example PipedreamHQ/pipedream (not case sensitive). If you pass just a repository name with no owner (e.g. my-repo), the authenticated user is assumed as the owner — convenient for "my repo" requests. Do NOT repeat the repository name as the owner (e.g. my-repo/my-repo); if you don't know the owner, pass only the name or run List Repositories to find it.
Required
issueNumber Issue or PR Number integer
The number of the issue or pull request to comment on.
Required
body Body string
The contents of the comment. Supports GitHub-flavored Markdown.

REFERENCE

Behavior hints are published with the component in the Pipedream registry and surface as MCP tool annotations, so an agent can reason about a tool before it calls it.
