GitHub is a manifest-driven source — connectors/http/manifests/github.yaml declares its resources, auth, and pagination against the shared grammar in connectors/http/manifest/; no GitHub-specific Go code exists. See HTTP for how the manifest mechanism works.

Auth

A personal access token or GitHub App installation token (bearer auth), plus the target organization login — every request is scoped to one org.

Resources

Three resources, all statically discovered: issues and pull_requests both request state=all so closed and merged items sync alongside open ones, and both share an issue_lifecycle field set (created_at / updated_at / closed_at) via use_fields. Note that the GitHub REST API includes pull requests in the issues endpoint’s results — issues and pull_requests will overlap for PRs; dedupe downstream on id if a pipeline reads both. Pagination follows GitHub’s Link response header (pagination: { link: next } in the manifest’s connection-wide defaults: block), and every request carries per_page=100 and the pinned API version header (X-GitHub-Api-Version: 2022-11-28).

Modes

ModeFull and ModeIncremental (see HTTP); this manifest declares no incremental: block, so runs are full extracts.
