What problem does it solve?
Managing GitHub issues via the web UI is slow, and AI context often gets lost between sessions. This Skill enables fast, CLI-driven issue management and stores AI session context directly in issue comments for seamless handoffs.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Full gh issue CLI reference with JSON/jq patterns for scripting.
- Bulk operations and advanced search filters to triage and manage multiple issues at once.
- AI session context storage — save/load work state directly in issue comments for continuity.
- Issue lifecycle workflows (backlog → in-progress → done) and an issue→branch→PR pattern.
Quick Start
Use the gh-issues Skill by installing it into Claude's skill path:
cp -r skills/gh-issues ~/.claude/skills/
Then activate the skill and issue your first task, e.g.:
gh issue create -t "Sample task" -b "Describe the task" -l task
For quick hands-on, you can load active issues with:
gh issue list -s open
