Issue Tracker Integration
Brokk AI embeds the project’s issue tracker directly inside the application so you can triage, review, and capture work items without leaving your coding flow. You’ll find the Issues tab in the left side bar.
Accessing the Tracker
Open the Issues tab in the left side bar. The list will populate with issues for the current Git repository or for any override you’ve configured in project settings.

Default & Custom Connections
By default, Brokk pulls from GitHub Issues of the current repository. To override:
- Go to File → Settings → Project → Issues
- Choose a different source:
- GitHub Override: Fetch issues from another GitHub repo by ticking “Fetch issues from a different GitHub repository”, then enter Owner, Repository, and (optional) Host for Enterprise setups.
- Jira Connection: Switch the provider to Jira, supply your Base URL, API Token, and Project Key, then test and apply.

Working with the Issue List
-
Refresh - Click Refresh to pull in new issues, status updates, and comments.

Issue Details & Actions
