# AgentLogs
AgentLogs is a dataset of activity related to the [GitHub agents functionality](https://github.com/features/copilot/agents): repository metadata, agent tasks, sessions, session logs (messages, tool calls, usage details, etc.), and user records.
This dataset is described in:
> Jonan Richards, Kosei Horikawa, Youmei Fan, Yutaro Kashiwa, and Mairieli Wessel (2026), *AgentLogs: A Dataset for Opening the Black Box of GitHub's Cloud Agent*. arXiv: [2608.29204](https://arxiv.org/abs/2608.29204) (preprint).
| | # Records | Size | Table | Content |
| --- | ---: | ---: | --- | --- |

## Installation
```bash
pip install risenlab-agentlogs huggingface_hub datasets
```
## Load
### Snapshot (recommended)
Download parquet once, then query with DuckDB, Polars, or the local streaming notebooks. Prefer this for `agent_session_logs`.
```python
from pathlib import Path
from huggingface_hub import snapshot_download
from agentlogs.schema import assert_dataset_version
dataset_path = Path("data") / "dataset"
snapshot_download(
repo_id="risenlab/agentlogs",
repo_type="dataset",
revision="v0.2",
local_dir=dataset_path,
)
assert_dataset_version(dataset_path)
```
### `load_dataset`
Convenient for the smaller tables.
```python
from datasets import load_dataset
from agentlogs.schema import assert_version
assert_version("v0.2")
repositories = load_dataset("risenlab/agentlogs", "repositories", split="train", revision="v0.2")
tasks = load_dataset("risenlab/agentlogs", "agent_tasks", split="train", revision="v0.2")
sessions = load_dataset("risenlab/agentlogs", "agent_sessions", split="train", revision="v0.2")
users = load_dataset("risenlab/agentlogs", "users", split="train", revision="v0.2")
```
`agent_session_logs` is large. Prefer a snapshot. Do not stream that config with `load_dataset` (full rows, including payloads, are downloaded to your machine).
