On GitHub issue event

github.onIssueEvent exposes the broad GitHub issues webhook family. Use it for actions that don’t have a semantic trigger.

automations/watch-github-issues.automation.ts

import { automation } from "automate.ax"
import { github } from "automate.ax/github"

export default automation("Watch GitHub issues", () => {
  const event = github.onIssueEvent()
  // Route the GitHub issue event by action.
})

Optional static account defaults to the project’s GitHub App installation binding and can’t be a signal. The installation receives events only for repositories it can access and needs Issues read permission. Returns Signal<GitHubIssueEvent>, GitHub’s issue webhook union, with action, issue, repository, sender, installation, and action-specific fields. Prefer On GitHub issue opened, reopened, or closed for those cases.
