github-auth

To configure GitHub authentication for an agent, the skill detects available methods like git or gh CLI and automatically applies the best path. It handles token, SSH, and interactive login flows to establish secure repository access.

Authenticating GitHub CLI access is handled by evaluating available credentials and selecting the optimal method. The skill guides secure credential storage and identity configuration for both token and SSH-based gh CLI login flows.

Yes, both git and gh CLI authentication flows are supported in the same environment. The skill implements environment detection to identify whether git or gh is available, applying the appropriate authentication path automatically.

Environment detection for GitHub credentials works by checking for installed git or gh CLI tools. It evaluates the available authentication methods in your environment to apply the most suitable credential setup without manual intervention.

No, you do not need to install gh CLI exclusively, as the skill applies to environments with standard git installed. It supports both git-based and gh CLI flows to ensure smooth repository operations.

GitHub authentication may fail if credentials are not properly configured for the detected environment. The skill solves this by guiding secure credential storage and identity configuration to ensure seamless automated workflows.
