A set of guidelines for using GitHub's command-line tool with issues, pull requests, and code reviews. It covers safe ways to collect information and publish replies.

Use it when writing raw GitHub CLI or API commands, filtering structured results, or standardizing issue and pull request workflows.

It reduces mistakes when commands handle repository data, comments, or review content.

ghx — Skill for Claude Code and Codex by holon-run/holon

Install

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.

Any agent

npx skills add holon-run/holon --skill ghx

Clone the repo

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/holon-run/holon

Made for: Claude Code, Codex.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00022	$0.01001
Opus 5.5	$0.00009	$0.00400
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00004	$0.00200
Haiku 4.5	$0.00002	$0.00100

Security

Grade A, and why

ghx 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.

GHX Skill

Summary

Use this skill as shared guidance for raw gh and gh api usage in GitHub issue, pull request, and review workflows. It focuses on safe command patterns, payload handling, and common collection/publish recipes.

This skill is guidance-only. It does not provide scripts, wrappers, or executable entrypoints.

When To Use

Collecting issue or PR context directly from GitHub with gh
Publishing PR bodies, issue comments, or review replies safely
Looking for reusable GitHub CLI patterns without depending on repo-local scripts
Standardizing GitHub CLI safety rules across multiple skills

Do Not Use

As a command or executable tool
When a task needs Holon runtime internals rather than GitHub CLI guidance
As a replacement for the task-specific logic in github-review, github-pr-fix, or github-issue-solve

Prerequisites

gh CLI authentication is required.
GITHUB_TOKEN or GH_TOKEN must have the scopes required by the target repository operations.
jq is recommended when you need structured filtering or JSON post-processing.

Safety Rules

Payload handling

Never inline large markdown or JSON payloads on the command line.
Always pass long bodies through files:
- gh issue create --body-file <file>
- gh issue comment --body-file <file>
- gh pr create --body-file <file>
- gh pr edit --body-file <file>
Use --body-file - only when stdin is clearly available and intentional.

Good:

cat > /tmp/comment.md <<'EOF'
## Summary
Detailed markdown with quotes, backticks, and newlines.
EOF
gh issue comment 123 --repo owner/repo --body-file /tmp/comment.md

Bad:

gh issue comment 123 --repo owner/repo --body "## Summary
Detailed markdown with quotes, backticks, and newlines."

Raw JSON payloads

Prefer gh api --input <file> for complex request bodies.
When passing many scalar fields, prefer repeated -f key=value flags over hand-built shell strings.

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.

ghx is a skill published in the GitHub repository holon-run/holon (175 stars, last pushed today), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 22 tokens to every session and 1,001 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
