github-auth-debug

github-auth-debug is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from HiQS-Labs/XYZ-forge. It costs 247 tokens per session (1,567 once invoked), scanned A, original, AGPL-3.0.

A macOS troubleshooting guide for cases where Git can push to GitHub but the GitHub command-line tool cannot authenticate. The two tools may be using different saved login credentials.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when GitHub CLI login fails, a saved token is rejected, or `git push` works while `gh` commands do not.
Why use it?
It helps find and correct mismatched credentials without deleting or rebuilding unrelated setup.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

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.

Security

Grade A, and why

github-auth-debug scanned grade A with 0 findings 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 1mo ago.

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.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

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.
