## How to set up Atlas for GitHub triage in a Blazor project

Setting up Atlas for GitHub triage in your Blazor project is straightforward, requiring just a few key inputs in your GitHub workflow. By 2026, this integration ensures that Atlas can read your `.razor` components and C# code, providing intelligent responses and code suggestions.

To enable Atlas for GitHub issue and pull request triage, you must wire the `atlas github` command into your GitHub Actions workflow. This command requires specific inputs to function correctly. You must provide the `MODEL` in `provider/model` form, such as `ollama/codellama:7b`. Additionally, for event types that require it, you must supply the `PROMPT` input; otherwise, the handler will fail with a `PROMPT input is required for <event> events` message. Atlas is designed to operate within a Blazor solution containing `.razor` components and a `.csproj` file targeting the Blazor SDK, allowing it to understand your project's structure and code context.

## How Atlas ensures safety and trusted interactions in Blazor workflows

Atlas prioritizes safety and trust in your Blazor development workflows, implementing multiple checks before any action is taken. It performs 3 critical permission checks, ensuring only authorized users can trigger automated responses and code modifications.

Atlas enforces strict safety protocols to prevent unauthorized actions within your Blazor repositories. Before executing any triage operations, Atlas verifies the triggering actor's collaborator permission, refusing to run if the user lacks `admin` or `write` access. Furthermore, to prevent accidental or stray comments from initiating a run, the handler enforces that comments must explicitly mention the configured trigger. Every Atlas tool call, including `bash`, `read`, `grep`, and `edit`, is permission-gated against `allow`, `ask`, and `deny` rules, providing granular control over its capabilities. Atlas also drafts a plan in a read-only plan agent and asks for approval before switching to a build agent, giving you full oversight.

## How Atlas interacts with Blazor code and toolchain

Atlas interacts deeply with your Blazor codebase, understanding `.razor` components, C# logic, and JavaScript interop calls. It can even suggest moving a component to `InteractiveServer` or `InteractiveWebAssembly` and fix 2-way data binding issues.

When Atlas operates within your Blazor solution, it leverages its code index, built by AST declarations using tree-sitter, to understand the nuances of `.razor` components, `@rendermode` directives, cascading parameters, and `IJSRuntime` interop calls. This deep understanding allows Atlas to provide highly relevant suggestions, such as refactoring a component to a different render mode and automatically fixing state serialization issues that arise. For testing, Atlas can add `bUnit` component tests and run them using `dotnet test` behind a permission prompt. After making changes, Atlas computes a unified diff for every file edit and surfaces it for approval, then can run `dotnet format` to ensure code consistency, all within your familiar Blazor toolchain.

## Managing context overflow with Blazor-specific files in Atlas

Context overflow is explicitly handled by Atlas, preventing large Blazor files from silently breaking the agent. If a prompt becomes too large, Atlas will identify the offending files, such as a massive `.razor` component or a complex C# service with over 1000 lines.

Atlas is designed to gracefully handle situations where the context provided to the model exceeds its capacity. A `ContextOverflowError` is caught by name and re-thrown as a user-friendly `prompt-too-large` message. This message explicitly lists the offending files, allowing Blazor developers to identify which `.razor` components, C# code files, or other project assets are contributing to the excessive context. This explicit feedback mechanism ensures that you are always aware of why an operation might fail due to context size, enabling you to adjust your prompt or the scope of the files Atlas is asked to consider, rather than encountering an opaque error.

## Reviewing and approving Atlas's suggested changes for Blazor

Every change Atlas proposes for your Blazor project undergoes a rigorous review and approval process, ensuring you maintain full control. You will always see a unified diff for any proposed edit before it's written, giving you 100% transparency.

Atlas integrates direct into your Blazor development workflow by providing clear review and approval steps for all its actions. After Atlas drafts a plan in its read-only plan agent, it requires explicit approval before proceeding to the build agent to make any modifications. For every file edit, Atlas computes a unified diff and surfaces it for your approval, allowing you to inspect the exact changes to your `.razor` components, C# code, or project files before they are written. Atlas also snapshots file changes as git patches, so edits can be easily diffed and rolled back if needed. This ensures that while Atlas automates triage, you retain ultimate control over your Blazor codebase, approving only the changes you deem appropriate.

## Steps

1. Configure your GitHub Actions workflow to invoke the `atlas github` command, ensuring your Blazor solution's `.csproj` and `.razor` files are accessible.
2. Set the `MODEL` input in your workflow to a valid `provider/model` format, for example, `MODEL: ollama/codellama:7b`, to specify the AI model Atlas will use for your Blazor project.
3. Provide the `PROMPT` input for specific event types that require it, such as `PROMPT: 'Review this Blazor pull request for component best practices.'`, to guide Atlas's responses.
4. Ensure the triggering GitHub actor has `admin` or `write` permissions on the repository; Atlas will refuse to run for unauthorized users, protecting your Blazor codebase.
5. Require a mention in comments to trigger Atlas, for example, `@atlas triage`, preventing accidental runs from general discussion on Blazor issues or pull requests.
6. Approve Atlas's proposed plan in the read-only plan agent, which might include suggestions for `dotnet add package` or modifications to `.razor` components.
7. Review the unified diff of any suggested code changes to your Blazor files, such as new `bUnit` tests or refactored `@rendermode` directives, before approving them for writing.
8. Allow Atlas to run `dotnet format` after approved changes to maintain consistent code style across your Blazor project.

## FAQ

### How does Atlas ensure my Blazor code is secure when automating GitHub triage?

Atlas implements several security measures. It verifies the triggering user has `admin` or `write` permissions, requires explicit mentions to activate, and permission-gates every tool call. All code indexing can be done locally with Ollama embeddings, keeping your Blazor code off third-party servers. Additionally, Atlas presents a read-only plan and unified diffs for approval before any changes are written to your Blazor project.

### Can Atlas help with Blazor component testing using bUnit?

Yes, Atlas can assist with Blazor component testing. It can add `bUnit` component tests to your project and, behind a permission prompt, execute them using the `dotnet test` command. This allows Atlas to not only suggest code changes but also verify their correctness within your Blazor testing framework.

### What Blazor-specific files and concepts does Atlas understand?

Atlas deeply understands Blazor's ecosystem. It indexes `.razor` components, C# code, `@rendermode` directives, cascading parameters, and `IJSRuntime` interop calls. This allows it to intelligently suggest refactorings, fix state serialization issues when moving components between `InteractiveServer` or `InteractiveWebAssembly` modes, and ensure changes align with Blazor best practices.

### How does Atlas handle code formatting for Blazor projects?

After Atlas makes any approved modifications to your Blazor codebase, it can automatically run `dotnet format`. This ensures that all changes, whether to `.razor` files or C# code, adhere to your project's established code style guidelines, maintaining consistency across your Blazor solution.

### What happens if a Blazor issue or pull request is too large for Atlas to process?

Atlas explicitly handles context overflow. If the content of a Blazor issue or pull request, including associated code files, exceeds the model's context window, Atlas will catch the `ContextOverflowError`. It then re-throws it as a `prompt-too-large` message, listing the specific `.razor` components or C# files that are causing the overflow, so you can adjust the scope.

### Can Atlas suggest NuGet package updates for my Blazor project?

While the primary focus for triage is on code and issues, Atlas's ability to read your `.csproj` files and understand dependencies means it can identify relevant packages. If a triage task involves adding a new dependency, Atlas can suggest the appropriate `dotnet add package` command, integrating direct with your Blazor project's package management.
