Data Machine Code

Developer tools extension for Data Machine. GitHub integration, workspace management, git operations, and code tools for WordPress AI agents.

What It Does

Data Machine Code extracts developer-oriented tooling from Data Machine core into a standalone extension. Not every WordPress site needs GitHub integration or workspace management — but if you're using Data Machine as a coding agent platform, this plugin gives your agents the tools to work with code repositories directly from WordPress.

Features

GitHub Integration

• List, view, update, close, and comment on issues
• List pull requests and repositories
• Create issues (async via Action Scheduler)
• GitHub fetch handler for pipeline workflows

Workspace Management

• Clone and manage git repositories in a secure workspace directory
• Read, write, and edit files within workspace repos
• List directory contents with file metadata

Git Operations

• Status, log, diff (read-only)
• Pull, add, commit, push (policy-controlled)
• Per-repo write/push policies with path allowlists and branch restrictions

AI Agent Tools

• 10 chat tools for GitHub and workspace operations
• Async GitHub issue creation via system tasks
• All tools register through Data Machine's tool system

Requirements

• WordPress 6.9+
• PHP 8.2+
• Data Machine plugin (core)

Installation

1. Install and activate Data Machine core
2. Clone this repo to wp-content/plugins/data-machine-code
3. Run composer install
4. Activate the plugin

Configuration

Set your GitHub Personal Access Token and default repository in Data Machine settings:

• github_pat — GitHub Personal Access Token with repo access
• github_default_repo — Default repository in owner/repo format

Workspace git policies are configured via the datamachine_workspace_git_policies option for per-repo write/push controls.

Architecture

Data Machine Code extends core base classes (BaseTool, SystemTask, BaseCommand, FetchHandler) and registers its capabilities through standard Data Machine hooks (datamachine_tools, datamachine_tasks, Abilities API).

Roadmap

• Phase 1: Core extraction complete, own settings management
• Phase 2: New dev tools — grep, search, code analysis, enhanced git
• Phase 3: Full PR workflow — autonomous code changes
• Phase 4: Multi-repo orchestration, webhooks, admin UI
