Repository Setup

Initialize a local git repository and create a matching remote on GitHub using the GH CLI, with device-code authentication that works reliably in all environments.

Prerequisites

The computer-setup skill must have been run first — it installs gh and git.

A GitHub account is required before proceeding. If the user does not have one, guide them through account creation:

1. Navigate to https://github.com/.
2. Click Sign up (or Continue with Google for social login).
3. Follow the prompts and verify the email address — without a verified email, repository creation will fail.
