Kodiak is a GitHub bot that automatically updates and merges pull requests based on a .kodiak.toml configuration file. It keeps branches up to date with the target branch, merges PRs once CI and approvals pass, and works alongside dependency bots like Dependabot and Renovate.
Use cases
- automatically merge github pull requests when ci passes
- keep pr branches up to date with master
- auto merge dependabot pull requests
- set up a merge queue for github pull requests
- automatically delete stale branches after merge
- reduce manual rebasing of pull requests
- automate dependency update merging with renovate
When to choose
- your team wastes time manually updating branches to satisfy 'require branches up to date' branch protection
- you want dependency bot PRs merged automatically by upgrade type
- you want a hosted GitHub App or a self-hosted bot with TOML configuration
When to avoid
- you use GitLab, Bitbucket, or another non-GitHub forge
- you need complex custom merge policies beyond Kodiak's configuration options
- you cannot grant a bot write access to pull requests and contents in your repositories
