Upload and download GitHub user-attachments (gh-attach)

GitHub has no public API for user-attachments. The web UI uses an internal endpoint that mints github.com/user-attachments URLs whose visibility follows the repository they belong to. gh-attach (MIT, sudosubin) replicates that drag-and-drop flow as a gh CLI extension, so an agent can upload a local file from the terminal, get a URL back, and later download an attachment URL to a file.

Overview

This skill drives gh-attach to turn a local file (screenshot, image, PDF, zip, log, or video) into a hosted GitHub user-attachments URL, then embeds that URL into a pull request, issue, or comment. It also downloads an existing attachment URL back to a local file. GitHub auto-renders the URL as an image, video, or file wherever it is pasted, and the URL inherits the repository's visibility, so a private-repo upload stays private. It works against GitHub Cloud and GitHub Enterprise Server.
