Interact with GitHub using the `gh` CLI to manage repositories, issues, pull requests, CI/CD workflow runs, and API queries. Use when the user asks to create, list, view, merge, or close pull requests and issues; check CI status or workflow run logs; query the GitHub API for repository data; or perform any GitHub operation from the command line. Covers `gh issue`, `gh pr`, `gh run`, `gh repo`, and `gh api` subcommands.

GitHub Skill

Use the gh CLI to interact with GitHub. Always specify --repo owner/repo when not in a git directory, or use URLs directly.

Pull Requests

Check CI status on a PR:

gh pr checks 55 --repo owner/repo

List recent workflow runs:

gh run list --repo owner/repo --limit 10

View a run and see which steps failed:

gh run view <run-id> --repo owner/repo

View logs for failed steps only:

gh run view <run-id> --repo owner/repo --log-failed

API for Advanced Queries

The gh api command is useful for accessing data not available through other subcommands.

Get PR with specific fields:

gh api repos/owner/repo/pulls/55 --jq '.title, .state, .user.login'

JSON Output

Most commands support --json for structured output. You can use --jq to filter:

gh issue list --repo owner/repo --json number,title --jq '.[] | "\(.number): \(.title)"'
