A guide for using GitHub from the command line through the gh program. GitHub is a website for hosting code, reviewing changes, tracking issues, and running automated checks.

It is for checking authentication, listing or creating issues and pull requests, merging changes, viewing CI runs, and querying GitHub's API.

It puts common repository work in the terminal and provides commands for issues, pull requests, automated checks, and advanced GitHub queries.

github — Skill for Claude Code and Codex by SKYLENAGE-AI/QwenClawBench

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 SKYLENAGE-AI/QwenClawBench --skill github

Clone the repo

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/SKYLENAGE-AI/QwenClawBench

Made for: Claude Code, Codex.

Per session 0 Skills are progressive disclosure: only the name and description are preloaded; the body loads when the skill is used.

When invoked 264 The whole file, excluding the scripts and references it only reads on demand.

Security scan A 0 findings. A grade says what 26 rules found in the file — not that it is safe.

Origin original No closer match found in the catalogue.

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	$0.00000	$0.00264
Opus 5.5	$0.00000	$0.00106
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00000	$0.00053
Haiku 4.5	$0.00000	$0.00026

Security

Grade A, and why

github 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 2mo ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/check-auth.sh), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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 it actually says

GitHub CLI Skill

Interact with GitHub using the gh CLI. Use gh issue, gh pr, gh run, and gh api for issues, PRs, CI runs, and advanced queries.

Prerequisites

gh CLI installed and authenticated (gh auth status)
A valid GitHub token or interactive login

Usage

Issues

gh issue list --repo <owner/repo>
gh issue create --title "Bug" --body "Description"
gh issue view <number>

Pull Requests

gh pr list --repo <owner/repo>
gh pr create --title "Feature" --body "Description"
gh pr merge <number>

CI / Actions

gh run list --repo <owner/repo>
gh run view <run-id>
gh run watch <run-id>

API Queries

gh api repos/<owner>/<repo>/contents/<path>
gh api graphql -f query='{ viewer { login } }'

Notes

Always check gh auth status before running commands.
Use --json flag for machine-readable output.
Rate limits apply to API calls (~5000/hour for authenticated users).

Files

What ships with it

1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

scripts/check-auth.sh 432 B runs code

Changes

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.

github is a skill published in the GitHub repository SKYLENAGE-AI/QwenClawBench (61 stars, last pushed 5mo ago), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 264 tokens. 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.
