Using the repo view

The repo view gives you a focused workspace for interacting with a specific repository. From here, you can view task history, manage running tasks, and launch features like Codecasts (coming soon).

Codecasts are short, audio summaries of recent activity in your repo. They’re an audio changelog for your repository.

In the repo view, you can generate a Codecast by clicking Generate Today’s Codecast.

How to Codecast

Codecasts currently include all commits (not just Jules activity) from the past few days. Like many features in Jules, Codecasts is still evolving.

There are two ways to open a repo view:

  1. Click on any repository name from the sidebar task list
  2. Select a repo from the task picker, then click into it after starting a task

This opens a view scoped to that repository, including task history and available actions.

Inside the repo view, you’ll see a list of all tasks associated with that repo:

  • Running tasks are listed at the top
  • Completed tasks include full logs and diffs
  • Failed or waiting tasks are clearly labeled

You can click on any task to reopen it, review the plan, or continue feedback.

From the repo view, you can start a new task scoped to that repository:

  • Click new tasks in the top right corner
  • This will preselect the repo and branch
  • Enter your prompt and optimal setup script as usual
