1

Connect a repository

Go to Integrations and connect GitHub, GitLab, or Bitbucket. Select the repositories you want Tembo to access.
2

Create a session

Open the Tembo Dashboard and click New Session. Pick one or more repositories, choose your agent harness, and describe the work. Tembo can also use connected integrations and MCP servers for extra context during the session.
3

Review the PR

Tembo works in a sandbox, writes the code, and opens a pull request. Review it, then mention @tembo in PR comments to request changes.
4

Set up agents

Go to Agents and pick a template or create your own with custom triggers and schedules. See Agents.

Where to tag @tembo

Tag required: PR comments, GitHub issues, Slack messages. No tag needed: Dashboard sessions, Linear/Jira issues assigned to Tembo.

Writing good prompts

Include: what needs to change, where (file paths), why, and how you’ll know it’s done.
Fix memory leak in workers/job-processor.ts

Heap grows from 512MB to 4GB and crashes after ~6 hours.
Likely in cleanup logic around line 156. See Sentry #12345.

Done when: memory stable over 24+ hours, no queued jobs lost.
Avoid: “Fix the bug”, “Make it faster”, “Update the app and add new features”. Be specific, scope to one session, and include acceptance criteria.
TypeWhat to include
BugSteps to reproduce, expected vs actual, error messages, Sentry link
FeatureRequirements, file locations, edge cases, dependencies
RefactorCurrent problems, desired state, constraints, specific files
