github-monitor

${var} — View selector + optional scope.

• empty → combined monitor over every repo in memory/watched-repos.md.
• owner/repo (a bare repo, no view keyword) → combined monitor scoped to that one repo.
• issues [scope] → new-issue triage queue. scope accepts owner/repo, org:foo, user:bar, or a bare login; empty = all repos owned by the authenticated user.
• releases [repo,repo,…] → release upgrade-triage digest. Comma-separated repo list; empty = the built-in watch list.
• prs → status tracker for PRs this aeon instance opened across external repos.
• add-repo:<owner/repo> → append owner/repo to memory/watched-repos.md, confirm, and end (the shape the Telegram force-reply sends — see the config-capture note in Shared setup). No view runs.

This skill is four focused views of the same GitHub surface. The combined monitor is the default; issues, releases, and prs each drill into one dimension with the sibling view's own filtering, ranking, and output format. Only the monitor and issues views take a repo scope; releases takes a repo list; prs takes no scope (it reads its config from aeon.yml/env).

Shared setup (every view)

1. Read memory/MEMORY.md for high-level context.
2. Read the last 2 days of memory/logs/ — used for dedup in the monitor, issues, and releases views.
3. Parse ${var} into a VIEW and a SCOPE:

RAW="$(printf '%s' "${var}" | sed -e 's/^[[:space:]]*//' -e 's/[[:space:]]*$//')"

# Config capture (Telegram force-reply): var="add-repo:<owner/repo>" appends to the watchlist,
# confirms, and ends — it is NOT a view, so it must be intercepted before the VIEW parse below.
case "$RAW" in
  add-repo:*)
    CAND="$(printf '%s' "${RAW#add-repo:}" \
      | sed -e 's#^https\?://github.com/##' -e 's/^@//' -e 's/\.git$//' \
            -e 's/^[[:space:]]*//' -e 's/[[:space:]].*$//')"
    if ! printf '%s' "$CAND" | grep -qE '^[A-Za-z0-9._-]+/[A-Za-z0-9._-]+$'; then
      ./notify "Couldn't read \"$CAND\" as a repo. Reply with owner/repo (e.g. acme/api)."
      # log: - view: add-repo (var="${var}") → BAD_VALUE
      exit 0
    fi
    mkdir -p memory; touch memory/watched-repos.md
    if grep -qiE "^[[:space:]]*-[[:space:]]*${CAND}[[:space:]]*$" memory/watched-repos.md; then
      ./notify "Already watching $CAND."
    else
      printf -- '- %s\n' "$CAND" >> memory/watched-repos.md
      ./notify "Now watching $CAND — it'll show up in the next GitHub Monitor run."
    fi
    # log under ### github-monitor: - view: add-repo (var="${var}") → $CAND
    exit 0 ;;
esac

if [ -z "$RAW" ]; then
  VIEW=monitor; SCOPE=""
else
  VIEW_TOKEN="$(printf '%s' "$RAW" | awk '{print tolower($1)}')"
  SCOPE="$(printf '%s' "$RAW" | sed -E 's/^[^[:space:]]+[[:space:]]*//')"   # everything after the first word
  case "$VIEW_TOKEN" in
    issues|releases|prs) VIEW="$VIEW_TOKEN" ;;
    *)                   VIEW=monitor; SCOPE="$RAW" ;;   # bare owner/repo scopes the combined monitor

1. Dispatch to the matching view section below. Run exactly one view per invocation.

Selector examples: "" → monitor/all · anza-xyz/agave → monitor/one-repo · issues → issues/all · issues org:anthropics → issues/org · releases → releases/watch-list · releases anthropics/claude-code,openai/openai-python → releases/custom · prs → PR tracker.

Logging convention (all views): every view appends to memory/logs/${today}.md under the single heading ### github-monitor, and its first bullet is a discriminator naming the view that ran: - view: <monitor|issues|releases|prs> (var="${var}"). Keep the view-specific bullets exactly as described in each section — the identifiers/URLs they write are what the next run dedups against.
