The aim of this work is to describe a simple and cost effective way to integrate generative AI into GitHub to support course specific scenarios. We are motivated by helping teachers realise their creative AI use cases in spite of technical barriers and also to ensure that students have a blessed and fair way to access AI services without needing to sign-up, prompt or pay. First we will describe a scenario that we have implemented for our own CS1 course, then we will describe the technical requirements for implementation. We finish off with our early thoughts on where these types of scenarios might be heading in terms of supporting computing education.
