Example Workflow

1. List available repositories:

   Use the list_sources tool to see which repos are available

2. Create a coding task:

   Use create_session with: - prompt: "Add a dark mode toggle to the settings page" - source: "sources/github/myorg/myrepo"

3. Monitor progress:

   Use get_session to check the session state Use list_activities to see what Jules is doing

4. Interact with Jules:

   Use send_message if Jules needs clarification Use approve_plan if plan approval is required

5. Get the result:

   Once session is COMPLETED, check the outputs field for PR URL
