Automating GitHub issue triage involves using gh or curl to search, label, and assign issues. This skill derives repository context from local git configuration to streamline applying labels and assignees directly from the command line.

Linking GitHub issues to pull requests with curl is supported through REST API calls. This skill manages cross-linking and progress tracking by handling issue statuses and PR connections without leaving the terminal.

Creating and labeling GitHub issues across repositories is handled by consolidating creation, search, and triage into a single workflow. Using gh CLI or curl, the skill automates lifecycle management by deriving context from local git config.

GitHub issue automation supports both the gh CLI and curl REST API calls. You do not need gh installed; curl can perform the same creation, labeling, assignment, and linking tasks as long as you have repository access.

GitHub issue workflows often require manual steps because creation, triage, and PR linking are fragmented. This skill consolidates these actions into a single automated workflow using either gh or curl to manage the entire issue lifecycle.

Searching and viewing GitHub issues using the gh CLI is a core feature of this skill. It automates issue retrieval and lifecycle management by deriving the repository context directly from your local git configuration.
