# 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
|
|
|
|
| Task | Read first |
|
|
|---|---|
|
|
| Auth broken / new machine / token or SSH setup / gh login | `references/auth.md` |
|
|
| Create, triage, label, assign, close issues | `references/issues.md` |
|
|
| Branch, commit, open PR, watch CI, merge | `references/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, verdict | `references/code-review.md` |
|
|
| Clone/create/fork repos, remotes, releases | `references/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.
