SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

It reduces the time and friction of checking GitHub project status and taking common actions (issues, pull requests, and CI results) without manually browsing the site.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Pull request status & checks: quickly view PR details and workflow/check run outcomes for merge readiness.
  • Issue management: list, create, comment on, and close issues to keep triage moving.
  • CI/workflow run visibility: inspect run logs and rerun failed jobs from the command line.
  • API querying: pull structured repository/PR/label data using GitHub’s REST API via gh api.

Quick Start

Ask the AI to check whether PR 55 in owner/repo has passing CI by running the appropriate gh pr checks and summarizing the result.

FAQPage Schema
How do I check pull request CI status and workflow run outcomes from the command line?▼

Check pull request CI status by running gh pr checks with explicit --repo scoping to view workflow run outcomes and determine merge readiness. You can also inspect run logs and rerun failed jobs using gh run commands.

How do I triage and update GitHub issues without browsing the website?▼

Triage GitHub issues using gh issue commands to list, create, comment on, and close issues for specific owner/repo targets. This keeps issue management moving directly from the command line without manual web browsing.

Can I query structured repository and pull request data using the GitHub REST API via gh cli?▼

Query structured repository and pull request data using gh api commands. You can pull specific repository, PR, and label data and format the outputs using --json and --jq flags for targeted API queries.

Do I need gh authentication to manage GitHub pull requests and workflow runs?▼

Yes, gh authentication is required to manage GitHub pull requests and workflow runs. You must run gh auth login before executing any gh pr, gh issue, gh run, or gh api commands to retrieve repository information or perform write actions.

What's the best way to inspect failed CI workflow run logs and rerun specific jobs?▼

Inspect failed CI workflow run logs and rerun specific jobs using gh run commands. This command line approach provides direct visibility into run logs and allows you to rerun failed jobs without navigating the GitHub site.

Are there limitations when using gh cli for targeted repository data queries?▼

Targeted repository data queries require explicit --repo scoping to specify the owner/repo targets. While gh api supports structured JSON outputs via --json and --jq, complex API queries may require specific command structuring to avoid limitation issues.
