FAQPage Schema
How do I manage GitHub issues and pull requests from the command line?

You can manage GitHub issues and pull requests from the command line by driving the gh CLI to create, list, assign, and review them directly in your terminal. This reduces context switching between scripts and the GitHub web interface.

What is the best way to check GitHub workflow run statuses for multiple repositories?

The best way to check GitHub workflow run statuses is by executing gh run list commands with the --repo flag. This allows you to inspect recent CI runs and fetch repository data via gh api across multiple repos in a single terminal session.

Do I need to install the gh CLI binary before using GitHub automation in the terminal?

Yes, you need the gh CLI binary installed and available in your PATH to automate GitHub interactions in the terminal. The Skill drives this binary to manage issues, pull requests, runs, and API queries without requiring additional dependencies.

Can I query GitHub repository data from outside a local git directory?

Yes, you can query GitHub repository data from outside a local git directory by appending the --repo owner/repo flag to your gh commands. This ensures the GitHub automation correctly targets the specified repository.

Why use terminal commands instead of the GitHub web interface for issue and PR management?

Using terminal commands for GitHub issue and PR management enables developers to operate GitHub from scripts and automate workflows. This approach minimizes context switching and allows batch operations like summarizing recent CI runs efficiently.
