SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill simplifies the setup of GitHub App authentication for the Happy Little Claude Coders workspace, enabling secure, scoped access to repositories and streamlined token rotation.

Core Features & Use Cases

App creation & configuration: Create and configure a GitHub App with restricted permissions for repository access.
Private key management: Generate and securely store the app's private key for authentication.
Kubernetes secret integration: Create and verify a secret (github-app-credentials) used by the workspace to authenticate.
Token refresh & rotation: The sidecar automatically refreshes tokens to keep access valid without manual intervention.
Use case: Teams can securely grant per-workspace access to multiple repos without sharing personal tokens.

Quick Start

Initialize the GitHub App, generate and store its private key, install it on repositories, and configure the Kubernetes secret and Helm Release to enable automatic token refresh for all workspaces.
