github

Manage GitHub via GitHub CLI (gh): repos, issues, pull requests, Actions, releases, secrets/variables, projects, gists, searches, and API access. Auto-activates on: "gh", "github cli", "github issue", "github pr", "pull request", "github actions", "workflow", "run", "github release", "release", "gh api", "github repo", "github secret", "github variable", "ci status", "monitor ci", "check ci", "watch ci", "pr dashboard", "pr overview", "open prs", "my prs", "pr status".

Safety Rules

  • Confirm before any state-changing operation (create/edit/delete/merge/close).
  • Never upload secrets as assets.
  • Treat gh api as powerful: confirm before any write operation.
  • Never delete or move published releases/tags unless explicitly requested.
  • When creating PRs, always set an assignee: default to @me unless the user explicitly names someone else.
  • When creating PRs, apply relevant existing labels when possible; auto-pick from PR context (title/body/branch + changed paths) and avoid creating new labels unless truly necessary.
  • If labels must be created, retrieve existing labels first (gh label list), propose the minimal set consistent with repo naming, and confirm before gh label create.

Confirmation Policy

Read-only commands are always OK.

Require confirmation:

  • gh issue create/edit/close/reopen/delete
  • gh pr create/edit/close/merge/review
  • gh repo create/edit/rename/archive/delete/sync
  • gh release create/edit/delete, gh release upload, gh release delete-asset
  • gh secret set/delete, gh variable set/delete
  • gh run rerun, gh run cancel
  • gh api calls that mutate state (POST/PATCH/PUT/DELETE)

Read-Only (No Confirmation Needed)

gh auth status
gh release list
gh release view <tag>
gh release view <tag> --web
gh help
gh pr checks <number> --json ...
gh run list --branch <branch> --json ...
gh run view <run-id>
gh run view <run-id> --log-failed
