github-rate-limit

You can check your GitHub API rate limit by fetching core and search quotas from the GitHub rate_limit endpoint to estimate remaining usage and reset times. This skill retrieves limit data and caches results to reduce unnecessary requests.

Authenticated GitHub API quotas generally provide higher limits by using an optional GITHUB_TOKEN, whereas unauthenticated requests have stricter ceilings. This skill provides authentication-aware insights to help maximize your available quota.

To avoid GitHub API rate limit exhaustion, monitor usage regularly and schedule backoffs when limits approach. This skill helps detect quota exhaustion and provides best-practice guidance on caching responses to minimize unnecessary API calls.

Yes, you can cache GitHub API rate limit data to reduce unnecessary requests. This skill natively caches results from the rate_limit endpoint, ensuring your automation workflows do not waste quota on repeated status checks.

Yes, the GitHub API maintains separate quotas for core and search requests. This skill fetches real-time limits, usage, remaining counts, and reset times for both the Core API and Search API endpoints.

You should schedule backoffs for GitHub API automation workflows when quota exhaustion is detected. This skill helps estimate remaining quota and provides guidance on handling rate-limit exhaustion by scheduling pauses until reset times.
