github-metrics

To collect GitHub engineering metrics, this Skill automates the retrieval of pull requests, deployments, and releases from GitHub APIs to analyze PR cycle time, deployment frequency, and CI/CD pipeline health. It requires GitHub CLI authentication and specific repository scopes to gather the data.

Yes, GitHub CLI authentication is required to analyze CI/CD pipeline health and workflow runs. The Skill depends on specific repository scopes to access GitHub APIs for retrieving workflow success rates, average durations, and contributor activity data.

Yes, you can use curl and jq to track Dora metrics and release cadence because the Skill depends on these tools to process GitHub API responses. It analyzes deployment frequency, release cadence, and PR review latency to provide engineering intelligence.

The best way to generate a weekly report on contributor activity is to use this Skill to collect commit patterns and PR review latency from GitHub APIs. It provides visibility into development velocity and team contributions to identify bottlenecks and celebrate achievements.

This approach works for analyzing engineering intelligence across repositories by collecting metrics from GitHub APIs, provided the authenticated GitHub CLI has the specific repository scopes required. It measures PR cycle time, deployment frequency, and CI/CD health for the targeted repositories.
