GitHub CLI Skill

Use gh (GitHub CLI) for all GitHub operations. Prefer gh over raw API calls, curl, or web browser. Every gh command supports --help for flag discovery.

Principles

• JSON first: Add --json <fields> + --jq <query> for machine-readable output in scripts
• Repo context: Run commands from a git repo directory — gh auto-detects {owner} and {repo}
• Cross-repo: Use -R owner/repo flag to target a different repository
• No interactive prompts: Always pass --title, --body, flags explicitly — never rely on interactive prompts
• Rate limits: Add sleep 1 between iterations in bulk loops
