Get Repository Commit

Get commit metadata for a granted private repository and ref: the resolved immutable SHA, author, message, and GitHub URL. Use it to pin what a citation of the caller's code actually refers to.

Requires your own connectionYour GitHub repositories

Access

This tool reads a data source you connect. Cortexa hosts no dataset behind it and nothing here is publicly queryable — there is no result to show a visitor, only the shape of the call. Add a connection in Settings → Connections, and the agent can use it in your own sessions.

Works with
GitHub
Scope
Commit metadata for repositories granted to the connection.

Access is read-only and re-authorized on every call against the connection's owner, your active workspace, and any explicit grants. Credentials stay encrypted at rest and are never returned by a tool.
