GitHub issue admin operations. Use when transferring issues, pinning, locking discussions, creating dev branches from issues, bulk ops, or managing custom fields.
Transferring, pinning, locking, or bulk-editing GitHub issues
Use github-issue-writing to compose a single issue body well
Creating a development branch from an issue (gh issue develop)
Use git-branch-pr-workflow for general branch + PR design
Updating custom issue fields (priority, severity, custom selects) in bulk
Use github-labels for label-only operations on issues and PRs
Performing bulk operations across many issue numbers in one command
Use git-triage to evaluate issues and PRs by completion evidence and CI state
Context
Git remotes: !git remote -v
Open issues are fetched during execution (requires a configured git remote).
Parameters
Parse $ARGUMENTS[0] as the operation, remaining args as issue numbers and options.
Issue references accept bare numbers, #N, or full GitHub issue URLs
(https://github.com/<owner>/<repo>/issues/<N>): strip a leading #, and for a
URL extract the trailing /issues/<N> number (require trailing digits — a
/pull/<N> is not an issue). When a URL's <owner>/<repo> differs from the
current remote, pass -R <owner>/<repo> to the gh calls for that issue.
Operation
Syntax
Description
transfer
transfer <N> <target-repo>
Transfer issue to another repository
pin
pin <N...>
Pin issues to repository (max 3)
unpin
unpin <N...>
Unpin issues
lock
lock <N...> [--reason <reason>]
Lock issue discussions
unlock
unlock <N...>
Unlock issue discussions
develop
develop <N> [--branch <name>] [--checkout]
Create branch from issue
bulk
bulk <sub-op> <N...> [options]
Bulk operations on multiple issues
fields
fields <N> [--set <field>=<value>] [--list]
Manage custom issue fields
Lock reasons: off-topic, too heated, resolved, spam
Bulk sub-operations: label, assign, close, reopen
When to Use

Transferring issues between repos
Creating new issues (github-issue-writing)
Pinning/unpinning important issues
Implementing issue fixes (git:issue)
Locking resolved discussions
Managing sub-issues/deps (git:issue-hierarchy)
Creating dev branches from issues
Searching for issues (github-issue-search)
Bulk labeling/assigning/closing
Auto-detecting related issues (github-issue-autodetect)
Setting custom field values
Execution
Execute the requested issue management operation.
Step 1: Parse Operation and Validate
Parse the operation from $ARGUMENTS[0]. Validate that specified issue numbers exist:
# Create branch and switch to it locally
gh issue develop $N --checkout
# Create branch with custom name
gh issue develop $N --name $BRANCH_NAME --checkout
# Create branch without checkout
gh issue develop $N
The branch name defaults to {issue-number}-{issue-title-slug}. The branch is automatically linked to the issue on GitHub.
Bulk Operations
Apply the same operation to multiple issues at once.
Bulk label:
# Pre-check: create any missing labels before applyingfor LABEL in $(echo"$LABELS" | tr',''\n'); doif ! gh label list --search "$LABEL" --json name | jq -e ".[] | select(.name==\"$LABEL\")" >/dev/null 2>&1; thenecho"Label '$LABEL' not found — skipping (create it first with: gh label create \"$LABEL\")"
LABELS=$(echo"$LABELS" | sed "s/,$LABEL//;s/$LABEL,//;s/^$LABEL$//")
fidonefor N in$ISSUE_NUMBERS; do
[ -n "$LABELS" ] && gh issue edit $N --add-label "$LABELS"done
Bulk assign:
for N in$ISSUE_NUMBERS; do
gh issue edit $N --add-assignee "$USERS"done
Bulk close:
for N in$ISSUE_NUMBERS; do
gh issue close $Ndone
Bulk reopen:
for N in$ISSUE_NUMBERS; do
gh issue reopen $Ndone
Report success/failure count after bulk operations.
Custom Fields
Manage custom issue fields (requires org-level issue field configuration).
List available fields:
# Get org name from repo
ORG=$(gh repo view --json owner --jq '.owner.login')
# List fields
gh api orgs/$ORG/issue-fields --jq '.[] | "\(.id): \(.name) (\(.type))"'
Get field values for an issue:
gh api repos/$OWNER/$REPO/issues/$N/issue-field-values \
--jq '.[] | "\(.field.name): \(.value)"'
Set a field value:
FIELD_ID=$(gh api orgs/$ORG/issue-fields --jq '.[] | select(.name == "$FIELD_NAME") | .id')
gh api repos/$OWNER/$REPO/issues/$N/issue-field-values \
-X POST -f field_id=$FIELD_ID -f value="$VALUE"
If the repo is not in an organization, report: "Custom issue fields require an organization-level repository."
