Kilo Code Integrations

Kilo Integrations lets you connect your GitHub or GitLab account (soon Bitbucket) to enable advanced features inside Kilo Code. Once connected, Kilo can access your repositories securely, enabling features like Code Reviews, Cloud Agents, and Kilo Deploy.

Supported Platforms

What You Can Do With Integrations

• Connect GitHub or GitLab to Kilo Code in a few clicks
• Enable advanced features like Cloud Agents, Code Reviews, and Kilo Deploy
• Authorize repository access so Kilo can analyze and work with your code

Prerequisites

Before connecting:

• You must have a GitHub or GitLab account.
• For GitHub: You need permission to install GitHub Apps for the repositories you want Kilo to access.
• For GitLab: You need Maintainer role (or higher) on the projects you want to connect.
• (Optional) If you're connecting an organization, you must be an admin or have app installation permissions.

Connecting GitHub

1. Open the Integrations Page

Go to your Personal or Organization Dashboard, and navigate to the Integrations tab.

2. Start the Connection Flow

1. Click Configure on the GitHub panel.
2. You'll be redirected to GitHub to authorize the KiloConnect App.
3. Select the GitHub account or organization you want to connect.

3. Choose Repository Access

GitHub will ask which repositories you want Kilo to access:

• All repositories (recommended if you plan to use Cloud Agents or Deploy across multiple projects)
• Only selected repositories (choose specific repos)

Click Install & Authorize to continue.

4. Complete Authorization

Once approved:

• You'll return to the Kilo Integrations page.
• GitHub will show a Connected status.
• Your Kilo workspace can now access GitHub repositories securely.

Connecting GitLab

You can connect GitLab using OAuth or a Personal Access Token (PAT). Both GitLab.com and self-hosted GitLab instances are supported.

What Happens After Connecting

Once your Git provider is connected, the following features are enabled in Kilo:

Cloud Agents

• Run Kilo Code in the cloud from any device
• Auto-create branches and push work continuously
• Work from anywhere while keeping your repo in sync

Code Reviews

• Automated AI review on every pull request or merge request
• Consistent feedback based on your team's standards
• See the Code Reviews guide for setup

Kilo Deploy

• Deploy Next.js 14 & 15 apps directly from Kilo
• Trigger rebuilds automatically on push
• Manage deployment logs and history

Upcoming:

• Bitbucket Integration

Managing or Removing the Integration

GitHub

From the Integrations page, click "Manage on GitHub" to:

• View the GitHub account you connected
• Update which repositories Kilo has access to
• Disconnect GitHub entirely
• Reauthorize the app if permissions change

GitLab

From the Integrations page:

• Click Disconnect to remove the GitLab connection
• Your tokens are cleared, but webhook configuration is preserved so reconnecting restores your setup

Disconnecting from Kilo does not revoke OAuth tokens on GitLab's side. You can manually revoke them from GitLab → User Settings → Applications → Authorized Applications.

Troubleshooting

GitHub

"I don't see my repositories." Ensure the KiloConnect App is installed for the correct GitHub org and that repo access includes the repositories you need.

"My organization blocks third-party apps." You may need an admin to approve installing GitHub Apps.

"Cloud Agents or Deploy can't access my repo." Revisit the GitHub app settings and confirm the app has the correct repo scope.

GitLab

"No projects listed after connecting." Click the refresh button to sync projects from GitLab. Ensure your GitLab account has access to the projects you expect.

"Permission denied" errors. You need Maintainer role on the GitLab project for webhook and bot token creation.

"Token expired."

• OAuth: Tokens refresh automatically. If refresh fails, reconnect from the integration page.
• PAT: Create a new token in GitLab and reconnect in Kilo.

"Self-hosted connection issues."

• Verify your instance URL is accessible from the internet
• Ensure HTTPS is configured
• Check that OAuth application scopes include all required scopes
• Verify the redirect URI matches: https://app.kilo.ai/api/integrations/gitlab/callback
