# GitHub Use `gh` for GitHub operations and `git` for local branches, commits, pulls, and pushes. Use code-reading tools for deep reviews. ## Prerequisites Check authentication before making a GitHub request: ```bash gh auth status ``` If `gh` is missing or unauthenticated, explain what is required. Do not invent credentials or expose tokens. ## Pull requests ```bash gh pr list --repo owner/repo --json number,title,state,author,url gh pr view 55 --repo owner/repo --json title,body,author,files,commits,reviews,reviewDecision gh pr checks 55 --repo owner/repo gh pr diff 55 --repo owner/repo gh pr create --repo owner/repo --title "feat: title" --body-file /tmp/pr.md gh pr merge 55 --repo owner/repo --squash ``` URLs work directly with commands such as `gh pr view`. Treat create, comment, review, merge, close, release, and workflow rerun operations as external mutations: perform them only when the user requested that action. Before submitting, show or verify the exact repository and target. ## Issues ```bash gh issue list --repo owner/repo --state open --json number,title,labels,url gh issue view 42 --repo owner/repo --json title,body,comments,labels,state gh issue create --repo owner/repo --title "Bug: ..." --body-file /tmp/issue.md gh issue comment 42 --repo owner/repo --body-file /tmp/comment.md gh issue close 42 --repo owner/repo --comment "Fixed in ..." ``` ## CI and runs ```bash gh run list --repo owner/repo --limit 10 gh run view <run-id> --repo owner/repo --json status,conclusion,headSha,url gh run view <run-id> --repo owner/repo --log-failed gh run rerun <run-id> --repo owner/repo --failed ``` ## API ```bash gh api repos/owner/repo/pulls/55 --jq '.title, .state, .user.login' gh api repos/owner/repo/labels --jq '.[].name' gh api --cache 1h repos/owner/repo --jq '{stars: .stargazers_count, forks: .forks_count}' ``` Prefer `--json` with `--jq` for structured output. Use `--body-file` for comments and bodies containing backticks, shell snippets, environment names, or user-provided text.
