Auto Provider Detection

When you set provider: auto (the default), NeuroLink automatically selects the best available provider based on which API keys you provide:

- uses: juspay/neurolink@v1
  with:
    openai_api_key: ${{ secrets.OPENAI_API_KEY }}
    anthropic_api_key: ${{ secrets.ANTHROPIC_API_KEY }}
    prompt: "Analyze this code"
    # Auto-selects from available providers

Provider Configuration

NeuroLink supports 21+ AI providers. Configure each by providing the required credentials as secrets.

Comment Update Behavior

When update_existing_comment: true (default):

The action looks for an existing comment with the specified comment_tag
If found, it updates that comment instead of creating a new one
This prevents comment spam on PRs with multiple pushes

To always create new comments:

- uses: juspay/neurolink@v1
  with:
    # ...
    post_comment: true
    update_existing_comment: false

Job Summary

The action automatically writes a detailed summary to the GitHub Actions job summary, including:

AI response content
Provider and model used
Token usage breakdown
Cost estimate (if analytics enabled)
Evaluation score (if evaluation enabled)
Execution time

Troubleshooting

Common Issues

Authentication Errors

Symptoms:

Invalid API key
401 Unauthorized
Authentication failed

Solutions:

Verify secret is set correctly:

- run: |
    if [ -z "${{ secrets.OPENAI_API_KEY }}" ]; then
      echo "Secret is not set"
      exit 1
    fi

Check key format:
- OpenAI keys start with sk-
- Anthropic keys start with sk-ant-
- Google AI keys are alphanumeric

Ensure secret name matches exactly:

# Correct
openai_api_key: ${{ secrets.OPENAI_API_KEY }}

# Wrong (different case)
openai_api_key: ${{ secrets.openai_api_key }}

Rate Limiting

Symptoms:

429 Too Many Requests
Rate limit exceeded

Solutions:

Add delays between requests:

- uses: juspay/neurolink@v1
  with:
    # ...

- run: sleep 5

- uses: juspay/neurolink@v1
  with:
    # ...

Use different providers for parallel jobs:

jobs:
  review-1:
    uses: juspay/neurolink@v1
    with:
      provider: anthropic
      # ...

  review-2:
    uses: juspay/neurolink@v1
    with:
      provider: openai
      # ...

Timeout Errors

Symptoms:

Request timeout
Action runs for full timeout then fails

Solutions:

Increase timeout:

- uses: juspay/neurolink@v1
  with:
    timeout: "600" # 10 minutes
    # ...

Reduce prompt size:

- name: Truncate diff
  run: |
    head -c 30000 diff.txt > diff_truncated.txt

Use faster model:

- uses: juspay/neurolink@v1
  with:
    model: gpt-4o-mini # Faster than gpt-4o
    # ...

Comment Posting Fails

Symptoms:

Resource not accessible by integration
403 Forbidden on comment creation

Solutions:

Check permissions:

permissions:
  contents: read
  pull-requests: write # Required for PR comments
  issues: write # Required for issue comments

Use explicit token:

- uses: juspay/neurolink@v1
  with:
    github_token: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
    post_comment: true
    # ...

For organization repos, check token permissions in Actions settings

Empty or Truncated Response

Symptoms:

Response is cut off
Empty response output

Solutions:

Increase max_tokens:

- uses: juspay/neurolink@v1
  with:
    max_tokens: "8192"
    # ...

Check for content filtering: Some providers may filter certain content. Try a different provider or rephrase the prompt.

Enable debug logging:

- uses: juspay/neurolink@v1
  with:
    debug: true
    # ...

Debug Mode

Enable debug mode for detailed logging:

- uses: juspay/neurolink@v1
  with:
    debug: true
    # ...

Debug output includes:

Full request/response payloads (with secrets masked)
Provider selection logic
Token counting details
Error stack traces

Getting Help

If you encounter issues:

Check the Troubleshooting Guide for common issues
Enable debug mode to get detailed logs
Search existing issues on GitHub
Open a new issue with:
- Workflow file (with secrets redacted)
- Debug logs
- Error message
- Expected vs actual behavior

Security Best Practices

API Key Management

Always use GitHub Secrets - Never hardcode API keys
Use environment-specific secrets - Separate keys for staging/production
Rotate keys regularly - Update secrets periodically
Limit key permissions - Use keys with minimal required scope

Credential Masking

All API keys are automatically masked in logs. The action ensures:

Keys are never printed to stdout
Keys are masked in debug output
Keys are not exposed in job summaries

OIDC for Cloud Providers

For AWS and GCP, prefer OIDC authentication over static credentials:

# AWS OIDC
- uses: aws-actions/configure-aws-credentials@v4
  with:
    role-to-assume: arn:aws:iam::123456789012:role/GitHubActionsRole
    aws-region: us-east-1

# GCP OIDC
- uses: google-github-actions/auth@v2
  with:
    workload_identity_provider: projects/123456789/locations/global/workloadIdentityPools/github/providers/github
    service_account: neurolink@project.iam.gserviceaccount.com

Workflow Permissions

Use minimal permissions in your workflows:

permissions:
  contents: read # Only if you need to checkout code
  pull-requests: write # Only if posting PR comments
  issues: write # Only if posting issue comments
