description	Condensed GitHub REST API reference (X-GitHub-Api-Version 2026-03-10): every endpoint with query/body parameters, enums and defaults, grouped by topic. Consult before composing non-trivial API calls; see references/conventions.md for auth, pagination, rate limits, errors.

GitHub REST API — condensed reference

Each references/ file lists endpoints as:

METHOD /path — summary [flags]
  q: query params | b: body fields

Legend: * required | :i int :n num :b bool :[] list | {k*} object (required keys) | (a|b) enum | =v default | [pg] paginated | ->NNN success code when not 200 | (GHEC) cloud-only

Start with references/conventions.md (auth, versioning, pagination, rate limits, media types, errors). Find an endpoint: grep -i /knowledge/github-api/references/
