Github

Overview

Github is a developer & devops skill that extends your AI assistant with powerful new capabilities. 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.

Install it in seconds and start using it immediately within your AI workflow.

What Github Does

Github integrates directly with Claude, Cursor, OpenClaw via the Model Context Protocol (MCP), giving your AI agent access to specialized tools it wouldn't have by default.

Once installed, you can invoke its capabilities naturally in conversation — just describe what you want to do and your AI assistant will use Github to get it done.

Use Cases

• Automate repetitive developer & devops tasks without leaving your AI chat
• Combine Github with other skills to build powerful multi-step workflows
• Access real-time data and external services directly from your AI assistant
• Extend Claude's capabilities beyond conversation

How to Install

Installing Github takes seconds. Place the skill folder in the right directory for your setup:

# Personal (available across all projects)
~/.claude/skills/github/

# Project-specific
.claude/skills/github/

After placing the skill folder, restart your AI client (Claude Code, Cursor, Gemini CLI, OpenClaw, etc.). You can then invoke it with /github or let the AI discover it automatically based on context.

Compatibility

Github is compatible with Claude, Cursor, OpenClaw. It follows the open MCP (Model Context Protocol) standard, which means it works across all MCP-compatible AI clients without modification.
