abapGit Agent

A local agent that enables AI coding tools (Claude, Copilot, etc.) to automatically pull and activate ABAP code from git repositories using REST API.

Overview

This project provides a bridge between AI coding tools and your ABAP system:

Claude generates ABAP code → Push to git
Local agent pulls from git → Activates in ABAP system
Returns activation results → Claude fixes errors if any

Quick Start

For Existing Repositories

# 1. Install CLI
npm install -g abapgit-agent

# 2. Clone repo
git clone https://github.com/user/abap-project.git
cd abap-project

# 3. Initialize configuration
abapgit-agent init --package ZMY_PACKAGE

# 4. Edit .abapGitAgent with credentials

# 5. Create online repository in ABAP
abapgit-agent create

# 6. Import objects from ABAP to git
abapgit-agent import

# 7. Pull to activate in ABAP
abapgit-agent pull

See Creating New ABAP Projects to set up a new ABAP repository with Claude Code integration.

Local Development

# Install dependencies
npm install

# Run unit tests (no ABAP system needed)
npm test

# Test a command manually
node bin/abapgit-agent --help
node bin/abapgit-agent syntax --files src/zcl_my_class.clas.abap

# Run integration tests against a real ABAP system (requires .abapGitAgent)
npm run test:integration
