GitHub CLI (gh)

Overview

Use gh for authenticated GitHub operations from the terminal. Prefer explicit, idempotent commands and report URLs back to the user.

Quick checks

  • Auth status:
bash
gh auth status
  • Current repo context:
bash
gh repo view --json nameWithOwner,url,defaultBranchRef

Core workflows

Repo create (private by default)

bash
gh repo create OWNER/NAME --private --confirm --description "..."

If running inside a local repo, use --source . --remote origin --push.

Clone / fork

bash
gh repo clone OWNER/NAME
bash
gh repo fork OWNER/NAME --clone

Issues

  • List:
bash
gh issue list --limit 20
  • Create:
bash
gh issue create --title "..." --body "..."
  • Comment:
bash
gh issue comment <num> --body "..."

Pull requests

  • Create from current branch:
bash
gh pr create --title "..." --body "..."
  • List:
bash
gh pr list --limit 20
  • View:
bash
gh pr view <num> --web
  • Merge (use explicit method):
bash
gh pr merge <num> --merge

Releases

bash
gh release create vX.Y.Z --title "vX.Y.Z" --notes "..."

Safety notes

  • Confirm the target repo/owner before destructive actions (delete, force push).
  • For private repos, ensure --private is set on create.
  • Prefer --confirm to avoid interactive prompts in automation.
