GitHub Bot

For ShitRat-authored work, use the installed shitrat tooling and shitratgit[bot] identity. The legacy app described below is for integrations that explicitly own it, not a default actor for Joel’s agent-authored commits, PRs, or comments. Discover actual app access; old repository counts are not authority.

Interact with GitHub API via the joelclawgithub[bot] GitHub App. Acts as a bot identity with access to all 280+ repos across @joelhooks personal and org accounts.
