gh-issues

gh-issues is a skill for Claude Code from TypedDevs/bashunit. It costs 37 tokens per session (730 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A workflow for processing open GitHub issues, which are tracked tasks or bug reports in a code repository, when they are unassigned or assigned to you.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to list eligible issues, limit or filter the work, preview what would be processed, and send each issue through the GitHub issue workflow.
Why use it?
It gathers the relevant issues, removes duplicates, and handles them in order instead of requiring each issue to be found and started manually.

These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

    Tool parameters are crafted to achieve unintended or unsafe behavior. Parameter abuse can bypass intended safety checks (e.g. shell=True, --force, dangerous glob patterns).
    Fix: Validate all tool parameters against an allowlist. Reject dangerous parameter values (shell=True, --force, -rf /) and use safe defaults.

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

gh-issues 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 5d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 34 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Process an issue queue

Process open issues that are unassigned or assigned only to the authenticated user, oldest first, using gh-issue sequentially. Accept --limit N, --label foo, and --dry-run (discovery only).

Discover

Resolve the current login with gh api user -q .login. Fetch open issues with pagination:

gh api --paginate 'repos/{owner}/{repo}/issues?state=open&per_page=100'

Exclude pull requests, issues assigned to anyone else, and tracker issues whose body lists child issues. Deduplicate by number, apply the label filter, sort by created_at, then apply the requested limit. Print #<number> <title> [unassigned|@me]; stop if empty. Dry-run stops here.

Process

  1. Check git status --porcelain. Preserve dirty work and stop or use an isolated worktree; never auto-stash or reset it. Fetch main and update a clean main with git pull --ff-only. A divergent branch needs a deliberate resolution.
  2. Choose the validation mode in step 3 before invoking gh-issue. Re-read each issue's state and assignees before starting; skip closed or newly assigned issues. Invoke gh-issue, which owns implementation, the canonical quality gate, commit, and PR. The coordinator runs that gate once per complete issue; delegates run only focused checks.
  3. If strict-mode coverage is required by CI, use ./bashunit --parallel --simple --strict tests/ in place of the ordinary parallel gate before committing. Inspect the current CI command first. Simple mode emits marker output; assert on helpers when testing full messages. Under strict mode, use if instead of failing [ condition ] && assignment, initialize arrays with =(), read potentially empty elements as ${arr[i]:-}, and keep extdebug inside a capture subshell.
  4. Wait for gh pr checks --watch. Investigate red checks, including Bash 3.0 compatibility. Re-run an identified infrastructure failure with gh run rerun <id> --failed; do not classify every registry failure as transient. If a local failure appears unrelated, compare the relevant test on unchanged main in an isolated checkout before claiming it predates the change.
  5. Merge only when the user's authorization covers it and checks and branch protection allow it. Do not bypass protection. After an authorized merge, verify issue closure; close a completed issue if needed and update its parent's checklist. Escape Markdown brackets as literals when editing checkbox text and preserve the rest of the body.
  6. Delete merged branches and worktrees according to the global cleanup rules, fetch and prune, and fast-forward main before the next issue. Keep branches with open PRs or unpushed commits.

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.

gh-issues is a skill published in the GitHub repository TypedDevs/bashunit (435 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 37 tokens to every session and 730 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.
