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 apifor REST endpoints, GraphQL for multi-resource queries - Output shaping:
--json,--templateandjqpatterns 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
ghflags - 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
- "Open a PR from my current branch with a title summarizing the diff" → Claude runs
gh pr createwith a generated title and body - "Show open PRs whose checks are failing" →
gh pr list --jsonpiped throughjq - "Watch the workflow I just triggered and tell me why it failed" →
gh run watchplusgh run downloadfor logs and artifacts

Try it now, no install
Paste this into Claude to use the skill without installing anything.
Read the instructions in this file and follow them to help me: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/daymade/claude-code-skills/HEAD/github-ops/SKILL.md What I want: (describe your task here)
If Claude can't open the link, open it yourself and paste the contents instead.
↓ If it works for you, download the ZIP below and install it. Then it runs on its own — no pasting each time.
Install in the Claude app (no terminal)
- Download the ZIP with the button below.
- In Claude, open Settings → Capabilities and turn on 'Code execution and file creation'. (one time)
- Go to Customize → Skills → + → 'Upload a skill' and upload the ZIP.
Install in Claude Code
Let Claude do it — paste this into Claude Code
Install the skill I found on Claude 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.
- Install GitHub CLI:
brew install gh(macOS),winget install GitHub.cli(Windows), orsudo apt install gh(Ubuntu). - Authenticate: run
gh auth loginand follow the prompts. For Enterprise:gh auth login --hostname github.your-company.com. - Clone the repo:
git clone https://github.com/daymade/claude-code-skills.git - Copy the skill:
mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills && cp -r claude-code-skills/github-ops ~/.claude/skills/ - Verify: restart Claude Code and ask something like "list my open pull requests" — the skill should activate automatically.
- Optional: the
NOJIRA:PR title convention is organization-specific; edit SKILL.md to match your team's rules.
