githubbing
From the author
Installs and authenticates the GitHub CLI (gh) in a Claude.ai container, then runs gh commands against it. Use for "install gh", "gh auth", "create an issue or PR from the CLI", "gh is not authenticated", or any GitHub operation you want to issue as a gh command rather than a raw API call. This skill is the transport rather than the analysis. To understand what a repository does or contains, use exploring-codebases; to add a repo to the session, accessing-github-repos.

- better-github-skillAVGVSTVS96/better-github-skillGitHub work via gh CLI: PRs, review conversations, CI failures, repo state. Use when inspecting a PR, reading a review (bodies, comments, inline threads), debugging CI (finding which run failed, why a check or Actions run is red, reading job logs), or composing non-trivial gh commands. Scripts cover what raw gh can't do (thread resolution state) or reliably fumbles (PR snapshots, CI log drilldown); use raw gh directly for everything else.Engineering★ 52
