# GitHub Issue Query Skill Query GitHub issues efficiently with built-in jq filtering. ## Important: jq Parameter is Optional The `--jq` parameter is **optional**. Without `--jq`, this skill returns **schema and data size information** instead of full data. Use this to avoid oversized responses and inspect structure before targeted queries. Use `--jq '.'` to get all data, or use a more specific filter for targeted results. ## Usage Use this skill to query issues from the current repository or any specified repository. ### Basic Query (Returns Schema Only) To list issues from the current repository: ```bash ./query-issues.sh # Returns schema and data size, not full data ``` ### Get All Data To get all issue data: ```bash ./query-issues.sh --jq '.' ``` ### With Repository To query a specific repository: ```bash ./query-issues.sh --repo owner/repo ``` ### With jq Filtering Use the `--jq` argument to filter and transform the output: ```bash # Get only open issues ./query-issues.sh --jq '.[] | select(.state == "OPEN")' # Get issue numbers and titles ./query-issues.sh --jq '.[] | {number, title}' # Get issues by a specific author ./query-issues.sh --jq '.[] | select(.author.login == "username")' # Get issues with specific label ./query-issues.sh --jq '.[] | select(.labels | map(.name) | index("bug"))' # Count issues by state ./query-issues.sh --jq 'group_by(.state) | map({state: .[0].state, count: length})' ``` ### Common Options - `--state`: Filter by state (open, closed, all). Default: open - `--limit`: Maximum number of issues to fetch. Default: 30 - `--repo`: Repository in owner/repo format. Default: current repo - `--jq`: (Optional) jq expression for filtering/transforming output. If omitted, returns schema info ### Example Queries **Find issues with many comments:** ```bash ./query-issues.sh --jq '.[] | select(.comments.totalCount > 5) | {number, title, comments: .comments.totalCount}' ``` **Get issues assigned to someone:** ```bash ./query-issues.sh --jq '.[] | select(.assignees | length > 0) | {number, title, assignees: [.assignees[].login]}' ``` **List issues with their labels:** ```bash ./query-issues.sh --jq '.[] | {number, title, labels: [.labels[].name]}' ``` **Get project board assignments:** ```bash ./query-issues.sh --jq '.[] | {number, title, projects: [.projectItems.nodes[]? | .project?.url]}' ``` **Find old issues (created over 30 days ago):** ```bash ./query-issues.sh --jq '.[] | select(.createdAt < (now - 2592000 | strftime("%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%SZ")))' ``` ## Output Format The script outputs JSON by default, making it easy to pipe through jq for additional processing. ## Requirements - GitHub CLI (`gh`) authenticated - `jq` for filtering (installed by default on most systems)
