A new open-source Git service called agent-git-service lets organizations run GitHub-compatible repositories locally with native support for AI agents as first-class users. Unlike GitHub, it gives agents durable accounts, scoped tokens, and direct permission control while keeping all data stored locally in real Git repositories and a MySQL-compatible database.

A new self-hosted Git service called agent-git-service has been released, designed to work with AI agents. It supports GitHub-style REST and GraphQL APIs, Git Smart HTTP, and OAuth device flow while storing repositories as bare Git repos and metadata in TiDB or MySQL-compatible databases.
Why it matters
Organizations can now run a GitHub-compatible service locally, keeping repository data and metadata under their own control rather than relying on GitHub.com. The service treats AI agents as first-class users with durable accounts, scoped tokens, and direct permission grants—capabilities GitHub itself does not offer.
What to watch
The service includes an issue workspace with typing signals and read state, semantic search, and a Grafana dashboard for monitoring. A quick-start setup using TiDB Zero is available for evaluation; production deployments require TiDB Cloud or an external database, as documented in docs/production-deployment.md.
