Getting Started

OCNexus automates the path from GitHub issue to merged pull request. Here is how to get up and running in under 5 minutes.

1. Create your account

Sign up with your GitHub account. Pay $1 to activate your account. Your 14-day trial starts immediately. Your full subscription begins on day 15.

2. Connect your repository

From the OCNexus dashboard, click New Project and select a GitHub repository. OCNexus installs a GitHub App that listens for new issues and has permission to create branches and pull requests.

3. File an issue

Create a GitHub issue in your connected repo. Describe the bug or feature in plain language. OCNexus picks it up automatically and starts the pipeline.

4. Review the PR

Within 60 seconds, OCNexus opens a pull request with the implementation. Review the changes, approve, and merge.


The Pipeline

Every issue runs through a 7-phase pipeline. Each phase is logged in the project journal for full auditability.

Phase 1: Classify (~1s)

Determines if the issue is a bug, feature, or question. Routes accordingly.

Phase 2: Discover (~3s)

Scans your codebase for relevant files, dependencies, imports, and context.

Phase 3: Spec (~8s)

Writes a detailed implementation specification with file-level changes and rationale.

Phase 4: Implement (~22s)

Multi-LLM execution. GPT-4 handles complex reasoning, Claude handles docs and tests, Gemini handles fast iteration.

Phase 5: Review (~7s)

The Guardian quality gate scans for syntax errors, security issues, style violations, and logical inconsistencies.

Phase 6: CI (~4s)

Runs your existing test suite. If CI fails, the fix is automatically re-routed through the pipeline.

Phase 7: PR (~1s)

Opens a clean pull request with full context, linked to the original issue.


Plans and Credits

OCNexus uses credits to measure pipeline usage. Each plan includes a monthly credit allocation. 1 credit = one pipeline action. A simple bug fix uses ~5 credits; a complex feature uses ~20-50.

PlanPriceCredits/moProjectsOverage
Indie$49/mo5001$10/1k credits
Studio$149/mo25,0005$6/1k credits
Team$399/mo15,00020$5/1k credits

Studio and Team plans can purchase Credit Packs which are consumed before overage and never expire.


Guardian

Guardian is the built-in quality gate. Every implementation is scanned before a PR is opened. Guardian checks for:

  • Syntax and compilation errors
  • Security vulnerabilities (injection, XSS, hardcoded secrets)
  • Style and linting violations
  • Logical inconsistencies with the spec
  • Test coverage gaps

Human Gate

Not everything should be auto-merged. The Human Gate pauses the pipeline for changes that touch:

  • Authentication and authorization logic
  • Database migrations and schema changes
  • Infrastructure and deployment configuration
  • Security-sensitive code paths
  • Payment and billing logic

These changes are flagged for manual review. You approve or reject from the dashboard or the PR itself.
