Agent skill
jules
Delegate coding tasks to Google Jules AI agent for asynchronous execution. Use when user says: 'have Jules fix', 'delegate to Jules', 'send to Jules', 'ask Jules to', 'check Jules sessions', 'pull Jules results', 'jules add tests', 'jules add docs', 'jules review pr'. Handles: bug fixes, documentation, features, tests, refactoring, code reviews. Works with GitHub repos, creates PRs.

Jules Task Delegation
Delegate coding tasks to Google's Jules AI agent on GitHub repositories.
Setup (Run Before First Command)
1. Install CLI
which jules || npm install -g @google/jules
2. Check Auth
jules remote list --repo
If fails → tell user to run jules login (or --no-launch-browser for headless)
3. Auto-Detect Repo
git remote get-url origin 2>/dev/null | sed -E 's#.*(github\.com)[/:]([^/]+/[^/.]+)(\.git)?#\2#'
If not GitHub or not in git repo → ask user for --repo owner/repo
4. Verify Repo Connected
Check repo is in jules remote list --repo. If not → direct to https://jules.google.com
Commands
Create Tasks
jules new "Fix auth bug" # Auto-detected repo
jules new --repo owner/repo "Add unit tests" # Specific repo
jules new --repo owner/repo --parallel 3 "Implement X" # Parallel sessions
cat task.md | jules new --repo owner/repo # From stdin
Monitor
jules remote list --session # All sessions
jules remote list --repo # Connected repos
Retrieve Results
jules remote pull --session <id> # View diff
jules remote pull --session <id> --apply # Apply locally
jules teleport <id> # Clone + apply
Latest Session Shortcut
LATEST=$(jules remote list --session 2>/dev/null | awk 'NR==2 {print $1}')
jules remote pull --session $LATEST
Smart Context Injection
Enrich prompts with current context for better results:
BRANCH=$(git branch --show-current)
RECENT_FILES=$(git diff --name-only HEAD~3 2>/dev/null | head -10 | tr '\n' ', ')
RECENT_COMMITS=$(git log --oneline -5 | tr '\n' '; ')
STAGED=$(git diff --cached --name-only | tr '\n' ', ')
Use when creating tasks:
jules new --repo owner/repo "Fix the bug in auth module. Context: branch=$BRANCH, recently modified: $RECENT_FILES"
Template Prompts
Quick commands for common tasks:
Add Tests
FILES=$(git diff --name-only HEAD~3 2>/dev/null | grep -E '\.(js|ts|py|go|java)$' | head -5 | tr '\n' ', ')
jules new "Add unit tests for recently modified files: $FILES. Include edge cases and mocks where needed."
Add Documentation
FILES=$(git diff --name-only HEAD~3 2>/dev/null | grep -E '\.(js|ts|py|go|java)$' | head -5 | tr '\n' ', ')
jules new "Add documentation comments to: $FILES. Include function descriptions, parameters, return values, and examples."
Fix Lint Errors
jules new "Fix all linting errors in the codebase. Run the linter, identify issues, and fix them while maintaining code functionality."
Review PR
PR_NUM=123
PR_INFO=$(gh pr view $PR_NUM --json title,body,files --jq '"\(.title)\n\(.body)\nFiles: \(.files[].path)"')
jules new "Review this PR for bugs, security issues, and improvements: $PR_INFO"
Git Integration (Apply + Commit)
After Jules completes, apply changes to a new branch:
SESSION_ID="<id>"
TASK_DESC="<brief description>"
# Create branch, apply, commit
git checkout -b "jules/$SESSION_ID"
jules remote pull --session "$SESSION_ID" --apply
git add -A
git commit -m "feat: $TASK_DESC
Jules session: $SESSION_ID"
# Optional: push and create PR
git push -u origin "jules/$SESSION_ID"
gh pr create --title "$TASK_DESC" --body "Automated changes from Jules session $SESSION_ID"
Poll Until Complete
Wait for session to finish:
SESSION_ID="<id>"
while true; do
STATUS=$(jules remote list --session 2>/dev/null | grep "$SESSION_ID" | awk '{print $NF}')
case "$STATUS" in
Completed)
echo "Done!"
jules remote pull --session "$SESSION_ID"
break ;;
Failed)
echo "Failed. Check: https://jules.google.com/session/$SESSION_ID"
break ;;
*User*)
echo "Needs input: https://jules.google.com/session/$SESSION_ID"
break ;;
*)
echo "Status: $STATUS - waiting 30s..."
sleep 30 ;;
esac
done

Session States
| Status | Action |
|---|---|
| Planning / In Progress | Wait |
| Awaiting User F | Respond at web UI |
| Completed | Pull results |
| Failed | Check web UI |
Notes
- No CLI reply → Use web UI for Jules questions
- No CLI cancel → Use web UI to cancel
- GitHub only → GitLab/Bitbucket not supported
- AGENTS.md → Jules reads from repo root for context
