# GitHub Multi-Account — AI-Driven Setup ## When to Activate When the user has multiple GitHub accounts (check with `gh auth status`). If you see 2+ accounts listed, this skill applies. ## What to Do (as the AI agent) ### Step 1: Detect accounts Run: `gh auth status` Look for multiple accounts. Note which usernames are listed. ### Step 2: Ask the user Ask: "I see you have multiple GitHub accounts: {list them}. Which one is your personal account and which is your work/EMU account?" ### Step 3: Run the setup automatically Once the user confirms, do ALL of this for them: ```powershell # 1. Define the functions $personal = "THEIR_PERSONAL_USERNAME" $work = "THEIR_WORK_USERNAME" # 2. Add to PowerShell profile $profilePath = $PROFILE.CurrentUserAllHosts if (!(Test-Path $profilePath)) { New-Item -Path $profilePath -Force | Out-Null } $existing = Get-Content $profilePath -Raw -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue if ($existing -notmatch "gh-personal") { $block = @" # === GitHub Multi-Account Aliases === function gh-personal { gh auth switch --user $personal 2>`$null | Out-Null; gh @args } function gh-work { gh auth switch --user $work 2>`$null | Out-Null; gh @args } Set-Alias ghp gh-personal Set-Alias ghw gh-work "@ Add-Content -Path $profilePath -Value $block } # 3. Create CMD wrappers $binDir = Join-Path $env:USERPROFILE ".squad\bin" if (!(Test-Path $binDir)) { New-Item -ItemType Directory -Path $binDir -Force | Out-Null } "@echo off`ngh auth switch --user $personal >nul 2>&1`ngh %*" | Out-File "$binDir\ghp.cmd" -Encoding ascii "@echo off`ngh auth switch --user $work >nul 2>&1`ngh %*" | Out-File "$binDir\ghw.cmd" -Encoding ascii # 4. Add to PATH $userPath = [Environment]::GetEnvironmentVariable("PATH", "User") if ($userPath -notmatch [regex]::Escape($binDir)) { [Environment]::SetEnvironmentVariable("PATH", "$binDir;$userPath", "User") $env:PATH = "$binDir;$env:PATH" } # 5. Load in current session function gh-personal { gh auth switch --user $personal 2>$null | Out-Null; gh @args } function gh-work { gh auth switch --user $work 2>$null | Out-Null; gh @args } Set-Alias ghp gh-personal Set-Alias ghw gh-work ``` ### Step 4: Verify for the user Run these and show the results: ```powershell ghp api user --jq '.login' # should show personal username ghw api user --jq '.login' # should show work username ``` ### Step 5: Tell the user "All set! From now on use `ghp` for personal repos and `ghw` for work repos. I'll use them too." ## After Setup — Usage Rules 1. **NEVER** use bare `gh` for repo operations — always `ghp` or `ghw` 2. **NEVER** manually `gh auth switch` — the aliases handle it 3. Determine alias by repo owner: - Personal account repos → `ghp` / `gh-personal` - Work/EMU account repos → `ghw` / `gh-work` ## Repo-Specific Account Binding This repo (`bradygaster/squad`) is bound to the **bradygaster** (personal) account. All `gh` operations in this repo MUST use `ghp` / `gh-personal`. ## For Squad Agents At the TOP of any script touching GitHub, define: ```powershell function gh-personal { gh auth switch --user bradygaster 2>$null | Out-Null; gh @args } function gh-work { gh auth switch --user bradyg_microsoft 2>$null | Out-Null; gh @args } ```
