Managing tasks and repos

You can start a new task from three places:

  1. Click the Jules icon to return to the home screen and a blank prompt input
  2. Use the new button in the top navigation
  3. From within a specific repo view, click new task

Each task runs in its own virtual machine and maintains its own logs, environment setup, and code changes.

Sometimes you need to stop Jules mid-task or clean up old runs.

  • To pause a task: click the pause.
  • To delete a task: hover over the task in the repo view and click the trash icon.

Paused tasks can be resumed later; deleted tasks are removed permanently.

Jules can only access repositories you explicitly allow through GitHub. In the future, Jules will work with more version control systems.

If you’ve already granted Jules access to all your repos:

  • Use the dropdown when starting a task to choose any authorized repo
  • Enroll new from the left sidebar
  • Search for your repo using the repo selector

Enroll a new repo

To give Jules access to more of your repositories:

  1. Go to github.com
  2. Click your profile photo —> settings
  3. In the left sidebar, click applications
  4. Find Google Labs Jules and click configure
  5. Under repository access, select additional repos
  6. Click save

You can also authorize new repositories via the repo selector in Jules. Open the repo selector and scroll to the bottom to click on +Add repository. This will take you to GitHub, where you can select additional repositories to grant access for Jules.
