issue-search Skill
Language: Respond in the same language as the user (中文提问则中文回答).
Search related GitHub issues across multiple repositories based on user questions.
Execution Flow
Step 0 · Check gh CLI
Verify gh CLI is available:
command -v gh
If not available, provide fallback web search URLs.
Step 1 · Analyze Question
Extract keywords and identify relevant repositories:
Technology mapping:
- react → facebook/react
- next, nextjs → vercel/next.js
- typescript, ts → microsoft/TypeScript
- vue → vuejs/core
- tailwind → tailwindlabs/tailwindcss
- vite → vitejs/vite
- webpack → webpack/webpack
- eslint → eslint/eslint
- prettier → prettier/prettier
- node, nodejs → nodejs/node
Extract error messages and technical terms from user question.
Step 2 · Search GitHub Issues
Method A: gh CLI (Primary)
For each identified repository (max 3), try gh CLI first:
gh issue list --repo <owner/repo> --search "<keywords>" --limit 5 --json number,title,state,url
Method B: WebFetch (Fallback)
If gh CLI fails or is unavailable, use WebFetch to access GitHub search page:
- Construct search URL:
https://github.com/<owner/repo>/issues?q=<keywords>
- Use WebFetch tool:
WebFetch(url, prompt="Extract GitHub issues from this search page. For each issue, provide: issue number, title, state (open/closed), and full URL. Return up to 5 issues.")
- Parse response to extract:
- Issue number (e.g., #69064)
- Issue title
- Issue state (open/closed)
- Full URL (e.g., https://github.com/vercel/next.js/issues/69064)
Step 3 · Present Results
展示每个 issue 的关键信息：标题、状态、可点击链接。具体呈现格式由 AI 根据上下文自主决定。
Error Handling
| Error | Action |
|---|---|
gh not installed | Use WebFetch fallback |
gh not authenticated | Use WebFetch fallback, suggest gh auth login |
| WebFetch fails | Provide search URL as last resort |
| No results found | Suggest broader search terms |
| API rate limit | Suggest trying again later |
Examples
Example A — React error
Input: "Why does my React component re-render unexpectedly?"
Actions:
- Identify repository: facebook/react
- Extract keywords: "component re-render"
- Search:
gh issue list --repo facebook/react --search "component re-render" --limit 5 - Display results with links
Example B — Next.js error (Chinese)
Input: "Next.js 出现 hydration 错误怎么办？"
Actions:
- 识别仓库: vercel/next.js
- 提取关键词: "hydration 错误"
- 搜索:
gh issue list --repo vercel/next.js --search "hydration error" --limit 5 - 用中文展示结果
