github is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from zackbart/connecta. It costs 1 tokens per session (1,054 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A GitHub App setup and access tool. GitHub is a service for hosting code, issues, pull requests, and automated checks.

In plain words
What is it for?
Creating and installing a GitHub App, generating its private key, and enabling repository and pull-request operations with read or write access.
Why use it?
It handles app installation and permissions so an agent can work with the repositories it is allowed to access.

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 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 today.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 9 executable files (auth.ts, fixtures.ts, hosted.ts, …), 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 88 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Setup

Create a GitHub App, generate its RSA private key, and install it on every configured owner. Org grants require All repositories, including future repositories. Exact repo grants work with selected-repository installations. Read-only grants request read permissions; read-write grants request only the permissions needed by each operation. The App needs repository Metadata, Contents, Issues, Pull requests, Actions, Checks and Commit statuses for the reviewed read tools. Grant Contents, Issues, Pull requests and Actions write only for the operations the deployment needs. Workflow-file edits also need the App's Workflows write permission and workflows: "write" on the effective scope. Org grants authorize repository operations, not organization administration.

Pass app: { appId, privateKey } with the key from an environment secret, or omit privateKey and populate the connector's encrypted privateKey vault field. Never put private keys or installation tokens in agent instructions. Tokens stay in bounded runtime memory, refresh a minute before expiry, and are never persisted. Key rotation partitions the caches by the key's fingerprint. Configured repository names bind to repository IDs on first use. Bindings last for the provider instance; name lookups expire after five minutes. A rename keeps its grant, while a replacement repository at the old name does not. Reconfigure to authorize a replacement. Transfers leave the original installation and cannot use its tokens. Org grants bind to installation IDs.

Choose the target first

list_scopes({}) returns configured org/repo grants without network access. list_scopes({ owner }) resolves that owner's installation and pages reachable repositories. Carry its next_page. The connection context lists configured scopes and access. A repo entry overrides and may narrow its parent org entry. An org grant covers current and future repositories, as long as the installation keeps All repositories selected.

Files

What ships with it

10 files 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.

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.
