Accounts And Authorisation

Accounts let selected tools act through services such as GitHub, Google, or X. A model provider account supplies models; an integration account supplies service access. They are configured separately.

Connect Safely​

  1. Open Settings -> Accounts.
  2. Choose the service and read the status and requested purpose.
  3. Prefer the supported OAuth or local CLI flow rather than pasting broad tokens.
  4. Verify the service, account, and scopes in the external authorisation page.
  5. Return to Row-Bot and refresh status.
  6. Test a read-only action before approving writes, posts, email, calendar, or repository changes.
Row-Bot Accounts settings with external services disconnected.
Account rows keep connection status and actions visible without displaying stored credentials.

Tokens And Scopes​

Secrets use the configured operating-system secret store when available. Settings show status, not the secret value. A service may still retain its own authorisation grant until you revoke it there. Use the narrowest scopes that support the feature and disconnect access you no longer use.

Troubleshooting​

  • Confirm the system browser returned to the same Row-Bot instance that started the flow.
  • For GitHub CLI, refresh CLI authorisation after signing in or changing accounts.
  • If a callback fails, repeat the supported flow instead of copying browser storage.
  • If an action is denied after connection, review both the service scopes and the Row-Bot approval policy.
