GitHub Extract

Extract content from a GitHub url.

Use this skill when the user types /gh-extract or asks to extract/download/summarize a GitHub url.

What it does

• Accepts an GitHub url, could be repo/tree/blob.
• Convert the url to github raw url.
• Extract file content from the raw url or save to a temp path.

Usage

# print file content to stdout
uv run --script ${baseDir}/gh_extract.py <url>

# save file to a temp path, with a proper filename, print the path to stdout
