github

GitHub via gh CLI: PRs, issues, reviews, repos, auth.

View source

How to use

  1. Copy the installation command and review the source package before installing it in your own agent environment.
  2. Check the source document for required tools, credentials and supported hosts.
  3. Describe your input and desired deliverable; review the output against the source material.

Before you start

  • Installation does not include a model subscription, API allowance or permission to access your files.
  • Repository stars and installation counts describe activity, not an independent quality or security test.

GitHub

Work GitHub end to end with the gh CLI (REST fallback where noted): auth, issues, the PR lifecycle, issue-to-PR delivery, code review, and repo management. This skill consolidates six former skills; each workflow lives complete in its reference file — ALWAYS read the matching reference before starting that workflow, the body below only routes.

Routing

TaskRead first
Auth broken / new machine / token or SSH setup / gh loginreferences/auth.md
Create, triage, label, assign, close issuesreferences/issues.md
Branch, commit, open PR, watch CI, mergereferences/pr-workflow.md
Carry an ISSUE to a verified PR (full delivery loop)references/issue-to-pr.md
Review someone's PR: diffs, inline comments, verdictreferences/code-review.md
Clone/create/fork repos, remotes, releasesreferences/repo-management.md

Supporting assets: scripts/gh-env.sh + scripts/git-credential-token.py (auth helpers), templates/ (PR bodies, bug report, feature request), references/ci-troubleshooting.md, references/conventional-commits.md, references/github-api-cheatsheet.md, references/review-output-template.md.

Core discipline (applies to every workflow)

  • Preflight once per session: gh auth status — if it fails, go to

references/auth.md before anything else.

  • Prefer gh over raw REST; drop to gh api only for endpoints the

porcelain lacks (the cheatsheet lists them).

  • Never report CI green without checking gh pr checks yourself; never

claim merged without verifying state,mergedAt.

  • Read full context before writing: gh issue view --comments /

gh pr view --comments — decisions live in threads, not titles.

  • Sweep for duplicates before creating anything:

gh pr list --search / gh issue list --search.

Verification

  • The workflow's own reference file defines done for that task.
  • Cross-cutting: every claim about remote state (CI, merge, release,

issue state) is backed by a fresh gh read, never memory.
