GitHub Gist Skill
Expert management of GitHub Gists via the gh CLI. All gists created through this skill include a README.md that documents the gist's purpose, content, and optional usage instructions.
Core Rule: README.md is Mandatory
Every gist must contain a README.md file. When creating a new gist, always generate a README.md alongside any other files. When editing a gist that lacks a README.md, add one.
The README.md must include:
- Description — what the gist does or contains
- Content summary — what files are included and what each does
- Usage (optional, include when the gist contains runnable scripts or commands)
See references/readme-template.md for the standard template.
