GitHub

Use this skill to orient GitHub work before choosing a narrower workflow.

Start by identifying the repository and target object:

• Inspect git remote -v, the current branch, and git status --short.
• Verify gh auth status when a GitHub command is needed.
• For pull requests, prefer gh pr view <number-or-url> --json number,title,state,baseRefName,headRefName,headRefOid,mergeable,mergeStateStatus,reviewDecision,statusCheckRollup,url.
• For issues, prefer gh issue view <number-or-url> --json number,title,state,author,labels,body,comments,url.

Route to the focused skill when the user asks for a specific workflow:

• Use ci-debug for failing GitHub Actions checks.
• Use publish-changes when committing, pushing, or opening a PR.
• Use review-follow-up when addressing unresolved PR review feedback.

When comparing GitHub state to local code, keep the exact head SHA visible in the reasoning. If the local checkout is dirty, stale, or on a different branch than the PR head, inspect safely before editing and avoid overwriting unrelated user changes.

/review is the code-review workflow. This skill is broader GitHub orientation: metadata, issues, CI state, review threads, branches, and publish flow triage.
