Gitto - GitHub Bug Pattern Search

Purpose

Turn a bug description into targeted GitHub code and issue searches, then summarize patterns and candidate fixes.

When to Use

• Investigating a bug and want to see how others solved similar issues
• Looking for code patterns or examples from public repositories
• The user provides a problem statement but no specific repo to inspect
• Redux/RTK issue triage - finding related issues or prior art

Inputs

• Bug description (required)
• Optional: language, framework, error strings, org/repo constraints, result limit

Process

1. Extract key phrases, error strings, and likely library/framework terms from the bug description
2. Build 2-4 query variants with GitHub code search qualifiers
3. Run searches using the gitto script (uses gh CLI if authenticated, falls back to API)
4. Rank results by relevance and return URLs with snippets
5. Provide analysis: summarize patterns, likely root causes, and 2-3 candidate fixes

Command

bun ~/.config/opencode/skill/gitto/gitto-search.ts \
  --query "<bug description or keywords>" \
  --language "typescript" \
  --limit 15 \
  --issues true

Options

• --query (required): Bug description or search keywords
• --language: Filter by language (e.g., "typescript", "javascript")
• --repo: Specific repo (e.g., "reduxjs/redux-toolkit")
• --org: Organization filter
• --limit: Max results (default: 20)
• --issues: Include issue search (default: true)

Output Format

• Code results: Repo, file path, URL, snippet
• Issue results: Title, URL, body snippet
• Use results to provide analysis of patterns and candidate fixes

Example Usage

For Redux middleware issues:

bun ~/.config/opencode/skill/gitto/gitto-search.ts \
  --query "middleware dispatch undefined action" \
  --org "reduxjs" \
  --language "typescript" \
  --limit 10

For React hooks errors:

bun ~/.config/opencode/skill/gitto/gitto-search.ts \
  --query "useEffect cleanup memory leak" \
  --language "typescript" \
  --issues true

Notes

• Prefers gh CLI when authenticated for better rate limits
• Falls back to public GitHub API if gh not available
• Does not print or log any tokens
• For Redux issue triage, consider adding --org reduxjs
