FAQPage Schema
How do I automate GitHub pull requests and issue management from the command line?▼

You can automate GitHub pull requests and issue management by using the gh CLI to create, view, and comment on issues and PRs. This requires the gh CLI to be installed and configured with access to the target repository.

Can I check CI workflow runs and PR statuses for a repository using gh CLI?▼

Yes, you can check CI workflow runs and PR statuses by querying workflow data via the gh CLI. This allows you to inspect CI runs and monitor project health directly for a specified repository or local git directory.

What do I need to configure before using gh CLI commands to query GitHub repositories?▼

Before using gh CLI commands, you must have the gh CLI installed and authenticated. You also need repository access specified either via the --repo flag for remote repos or by running commands within a local git directory.

What is the best way to list pull requests in a specific GitHub repository?▼

The best way to list pull requests in a specific GitHub repository is using the gh pr list command. You simply execute gh pr list --repo owner/repo to quickly fetch and review active PRs.

Are there limitations when querying GitHub workflow data outside of a git directory?▼

Yes, querying GitHub workflow data outside of a git directory requires explicitly passing the --repo flag with the owner and repository name. Without a local git directory context, the gh CLI cannot infer the target repository automatically.
