GitHub CLI v2.91.0 for managing repositories, pull requests, issues, releases, workflows, codespaces, and more from the terminal. Use when automating GitHub workflows, scripting API calls, managing PRs/issues/releases from the command line, or integrating GitHub into CI/CD pipelines.
gh is GitHub's official command-line tool that brings pull requests, issues, releases, workflows, codespaces, and other GitHub concepts to the terminal. It is a standalone tool (not a git proxy) written in Go, supporting macOS, Windows, and Linux. Version 2.91.0 adds pseudonymous telemetry, expanded gh skill agent support, and improved skill discovery with hidden directory detection.
Supported platforms: GitHub.com, GitHub Enterprise Cloud, and GitHub Enterprise Server 2.20+.
When to Use
Managing pull requests from the terminal (create, review, merge, checkout)
Creating, listing, editing, and closing issues without leaving the shell
Automating GitHub Actions workflows and run management
Scripting GitHub API calls with gh api for custom automation
Managing releases, secrets, variables, and repository settings from CLI
Working with GitHub Codespaces (create, manage, SSH, ports)
Installing and managing AI agent skills via gh skill
Authenticating to GitHub.com or GitHub Enterprise Server
Searching across code, issues, PRs, commits, and repositories

Build from Source
See the install_source.md in the cli/cli repository for building from source.
Binary Verification
Since v2.50.0, gh produces Build Provenance Attestation via Sigstore:
Authentication: gh authenticates via OAuth device flow or personal access tokens. Use gh auth login to begin interactive setup, or gh auth login --with-token for non-interactive token-based authentication.
Repository Context: Commands operate on the current repository by default (detected from git remote). Override with -R OWNER/REPO or set GH_REPO.
Output Formatting: All list/view commands support --json for structured output, --jq for filtering with jq syntax, and --template for Go template rendering.
Aliases: Create shortcuts for frequently used command combinations with gh alias set.
Extensions: Extend gh with community or custom extensions installed via gh extension install.
Skills (v2.91): Install AI agent skills from GitHub repositories using gh skill install, supporting multiple agent hosts (Claude Code, pi, Codex, etc.) with hidden directory discovery (--allow-hidden-dirs).
