GitHub Agentic Workflows is a GitHub CLI extension that lets developers define AI-assisted repository automation in Markdown and run it through GitHub Actions. It is intended for tasks requiring interpretation or reasoning, such as issue triage, pull-request review, CI investigation, documentation maintenance, and dependency analysis. The catalogue entries provide skills and agents for working with these workflows.
Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

A badge with what this costs and how it scanned, read live from this page, so it follows the numbers instead of freezing them. Markdown for a README, HTML for a documentation site or a project page.

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5 | $0.00016 | $0.01557 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00008 | $0.00779 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00003 | $0.00311 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00002 | $0.00156 |
Grade C, and why
git-workflow scanned grade C with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured yesterday.
A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.
Recursive force deletehighDestructive command
rm -rf with a variable or a broad path is one typo away from removing the wrong tree.
If a worktree was deleted manually (rm -rf), `git worktree prune` recovers the state. Copies of this mod

How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 205 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Context
Squad uses a three-branch model. All feature work starts from dev, not main.
| Branch | Purpose | Publishes |
|---|---|---|
main |
Released, tagged, in-npm code only | npm publish on tag |
dev |
Integration branch — all feature work lands here | npm publish --tag preview on merge |
insiders |
Early-access channel — synced from dev | npm publish --tag insiders on sync |
Branch Naming Convention
Issue branches MUST use: squad/{issue-number}-{kebab-case-slug}
Examples:
squad/195-fix-version-stamp-bugsquad/42-add-profile-api
Workflow for Issue Work
-
Branch from dev:
git checkout dev git pull origin dev git checkout -b squad/{issue-number}-{slug} -
Mark issue in-progress:
gh issue edit {number} --add-label "status:in-progress" -
Create draft PR targeting dev:
gh pr create --base dev --title "{description}" --body "Closes #{issue-number}" --draft -
Do the work. Make changes, write tests, commit with issue reference.
-
Push and mark ready:
git push -u origin squad/{issue-number}-{slug} gh pr ready -
After merge to dev:
git checkout dev git pull origin dev git branch -d squad/{issue-number}-{slug} git push origin --delete squad/{issue-number}-{slug}
Parallel Multi-Issue Work (Worktrees)
When the coordinator routes multiple issues simultaneously (e.g., "fix bugs X, Y, and Z"), use git worktree to give each agent an isolated working directory. No filesystem collisions, no branch-switching overhead.
When to Use Worktrees vs Sequential
| Scenario | Strategy |
|---|---|
| Single issue | Standard workflow above — no worktree needed |
| 2+ simultaneous issues in same repo | Worktrees — one per issue |
| Work spanning multiple repos | Separate clones as siblings (see Multi-Repo below) |
Setup
From the main clone (must be on dev or any branch):
What this file has done since we first saw it
Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

git-workflow is a skill published in the GitHub repository github/gh-aw (5,104 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 16 tokens to every session and 1,557 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it C with 1 finding (recursive force delete). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-03.
Other skills, from other repositories
watch-tag
Watch a GitHub repository for new tags using the gh-watch extension. Use when the user wants to be notified when a tag is created, when a release is cut, or when a tag that includes a specific commit appears (e.g. "tell me when my merge ships in a release").
github-automation
GitHub workflow automation, PR management, issue tracking, and code review coordination. Integrates with GitHub Actions and repository management. Use when: PR creation, code review, issue management, release automation, workflow setup. Skip when: local-only changes, non-GitHub repositories.
cherry-pick
Cherry-pick a commit from main to a Sui release branch, create the release PR, and report the PR URL.
mflux-pr
Make a clean PR in mflux (inspect diff, quick verification, commit, push, open PR) using repo conventions.
comet-safe-delivery
在保护无关脏改动、关联 worktree、子模块和用户明确边界的前提下,提交、推送、合并或完成范围明确的 Comet 变更。用户要求提交、推送、合并回目标分支、清理 worktree 或交付已准备好的改动时使用。.
