GitHub Operations (github-ops)

Turns Claude into a fluent gh CLI operator for pull requests, issues, workflows and the GitHub API.

Dev & CodingIntermediate★ 1,323⑂ 212AI score 8/10Last updated: Aug 8, 2026

What it does

Gives Claude a curated command playbook for nearly every GitHub task via the gh CLI and the GitHub REST/GraphQL APIs.

  • Pull requests: create, list, view, review, comment, check CI status, squash-merge
  • Issues: create, label/assign, advanced filtering, bulk edits
  • GitHub Actions: trigger workflows, watch runs, download artifacts
  • Direct API access: gh api for REST endpoints, GraphQL for multi-resource queries
  • Output shaping: --json, --template and jq patterns for scripting
  • Deep dives live in five references/ documents that are loaded only when needed.

Who it's for

  • Developers who live in the terminal but keep re-googling gh flags
  • Anyone who wants Claude to drive the full create-review-merge PR loop
  • Teams automating issue triage or CI failure investigation
  • Engineers on GitHub Enterprise who need hostname-specific auth

Examples

  1. "Open a PR from my current branch with a title summarizing the diff" → Claude runs gh pr create with a generated title and body
  2. "Show open PRs whose checks are failing" → gh pr list --json piped through jq
  3. "Watch the workflow I just triggered and tell me why it failed" → gh run watch plus gh run download for logs and artifacts

Let Claude do it — paste this into Claude Code

Install the skill I found on AI Skill Mart.
Copy the github-ops folder from the GitHub repo daymade/claude-code-skills into my ~/.claude/skills/github-ops/.
When it's done, tell me in one line what this skill can do.

Install with a command instead

git clone https://github.com/daymade/claude-code-skills.git && mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills && cp -r claude-code-skills/github-ops ~/.claude/skills/

⚠ This is a third-party skill. Check the source repository before installing.

  1. Install GitHub CLI: brew install gh (macOS), winget install GitHub.cli (Windows), or sudo apt install gh (Ubuntu).
  2. Authenticate: run gh auth login and follow the prompts. For Enterprise: gh auth login --hostname github.your-company.com.
  3. Clone the repo: git clone https://github.com/daymade/claude-code-skills.git
  4. Copy the skill: mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills && cp -r claude-code-skills/github-ops ~/.claude/skills/
  5. Verify: restart Claude Code and ask something like "list my open pull requests" — the skill should activate automatically.
  6. Optional: the NOJIRA: PR title convention is organization-specific; edit SKILL.md to match your team's rules.
