This skill teaches an agent a gh-first workflow for interacting with GitHub: detect and reuse existing authentication, create repositories, configure remotes, push branches, and fall back safely to git or API calls when necessary. It prescribes minimal-interruption prompts, strict secret-handling rules, and step-by-step execution flows for different environment states.
Use when the agent needs to perform GitHub-related tasks on behalf of the user: creating or pushing to repos, setting remotes, performing authenticated gh actions, or finishing onboarding flows that require minimal user input. Helpful for CI setup, repo initialization, and automated pushes.
gh auth driving, fallback strategies if gh is missing, and exact preferred command flows for success conditions.Agents capable of running shell commands and using gh (CLI-aware agents like Copilot/Codex, CLI automation agents, or containerized runners).
