GitHub CLI skill for interacting with GitHub via the gh command line tool. Use when Bub needs to (1) Create, view, or manage GitHub repositories, (2) Work with issues and pull requests, (3) Create and manage releases, (4) Run and monitor GitHub Actions workflows, (5) Create and manage gists, (6) Install and manage agent skills, or (7) Perform any GitHub operations via command line.

Markdown instructions
A SKILL.md file the model loads on demand, so it only costs tokens when a request actually matches.
Works with any LLM
AI skills are plain Markdown, not provider-specific code, so this works with GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model.
Self-contained
Everything the model needs lives in the instructions — no extra files to sync.
Open source
Published by bubbuild on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

Install the Gh AI skill in TypingMind to use it with any LLM, or drop it into another agent that reads SKILL.md.

Install in TypingMind

TypingMind installs a skill straight from its GitHub folder — it reads SKILL.md, bundles the resource files, and stores the result locally.

Open the app and go to Plugins → Skills.
Choose "Install from GitHub".
Paste the skill folder URL below and confirm.
https://github.com/bubbuild/bub/tree/main/src/skills/gh
Enable the skill in any chat where you want it available.

Plugins → Skills → Add skill → From GitHub URL, then paste the folder URL and press Continue.

Install in another agent

Any agent that reads the Agent Skills format can use this skill — copy the folder into that agent's skills directory.

Claude Code — .claude/skills

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/bubbuild/bub.git /tmp/bub
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/bub/src/skills/gh .claude/skills/gh

Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Gh in any TypingMind chat and the model takes it from there. Its name and description sit in the system prompt, and the moment a request matches, the model loads the full instructions itself — you never invoke it by hand, and it costs no tokens until it is actually used.

The model loads Gh on its own as soon as a request matches it.

Works with any AI model

AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so Gh is not tied to the model it was written for. Install it once in TypingMind and use it with GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama, or a local model you run yourself — all on your own API keys.

Loaded only when it is needed
The system prompt carries just the name and description. The instructions are fetched on the first matching request, so an idle skill costs nothing.
Switch models mid-chat
Because the skill is instructions rather than code, changing model does not break it — the next model reads the same SKILL.md.

Skill instructions

This is the SKILL.md content the model loads. Read it before installing — a skill is instructions your model will follow.

GitHub CLI (gh) Skill

Interact with GitHub using the gh command line tool.

Run commands with Bub's bash tool, setting cwd to the target checkout when using local repository context. If it returns a running shell ID, collect the result with bash.output before retrying the command.

Prerequisites

Use the authentication source specified by the user or workspace. For github.com, GH_TOKEN takes precedence over GITHUB_TOKEN, and both override stored gh credentials.

Check authentication:

bash
gh auth status

If not authenticated, report the blocker; do not silently switch credentials. Run interactive login only when the user requests authentication setup:

bash
gh auth login

Repository Operations

bash
gh repo create <name> [--public|--private]
gh repo clone <owner/repo>
gh repo fork <owner/repo>
gh repo view [owner/repo]
gh repo list [owner]

Issue Operations

bash
gh issue create --title "Title" --body "Body"
gh issue list [--state open|closed]
gh issue view <number>
gh issue close <number>
gh issue comment <number> --body "Comment"

Pull Request Operations

bash
gh pr create --title "Title" --body "Body"
gh pr list [--state open|closed]
gh pr view <number>
gh pr checkout <number>
gh pr merge <number>
gh pr review <number> --approve

Release Operations

bash
gh release create <tag> --generate-notes
gh release list
gh release download <tag>
gh release upload <tag> <file>

Workflow Operations

bash
gh workflow list
gh workflow run <name>
gh run list
gh run view <run-id>
gh run watch <run-id>

Gist Operations

bash
gh gist create <file>
gh gist list
gh gist view <id>

Skill Operations

bash
gh skill search <query>
gh skill preview <owner/repo> <skill>
gh skill install <owner/repo> <skill> --dir .agents/skills
gh skill list --dir .agents/skills
gh skill update <skill> --dir .agents/skills --dry-run
gh skill update <skill> --dir .agents/skills --all

gh skill is in preview; check gh skill --help for availability. Run project-scoped commands from Bub's workspace and use --dir .agents/skills; use --dir "$HOME/.agents/skills" for user-scoped skills. Keep gh's source-tracking metadata so installed skills can be updated.

Tips

Use --web to open in browser
Use -R owner/repo to specify repository
Use --json with --jq for scripting
Use GH_PROMPT_DISABLED=1 and supply required flags for unattended execution.
Write issue, PR, and comment body files as UTF-8 Markdown with real newlines. Pass them with --body-file, or use --body-file - with a quoted heredoc to preserve shell-sensitive text.
Use an explicit --head with gh pr create to avoid implicit pushes or forks; the head branch must already exist remotely.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Gh AI skill do?

Why use Gh on TypingMind?

Because you install it once and use it with any model. Gh is plain Markdown rather than provider-specific code, so the same skill runs on GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model — and you can switch model mid-chat without it breaking. TypingMind runs on your own API keys, so you pay providers directly instead of a per-seat subscription, and your skills and chats stay in your own storage.

How do I install Gh in TypingMind?

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/bubbuild/bub/tree/main/src/skills/gh. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.

Which AI models can use Gh?

Any model you connect in TypingMind. AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, and local models can all load this skill when a request matches it.

How many AI models can I use with Gh?

As many as you like. As long as a model supports skills, you can use Gh with it — GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama and more — all on TypingMind with your own API keys.

Is the Gh AI skill free?

Yes. It is published on GitHub by bubbuild under the Apache-2.0 license. You only pay your own AI provider for the tokens you use.

What are AI skills?

An AI skill is a reusable instruction bundle that teaches an AI model how to do one specific task. It follows the open Agent Skills format: a SKILL.md file with a name and description, plus any scripts, templates or reference files the model may need. The model reads the instructions only when your request matches the skill, so an installed skill costs nothing until it is used.

How are AI skills different from plugins or MCP servers?

A plugin or MCP server gives a model new tools to call — code that runs somewhere and returns a result. An AI skill gives the model knowledge and process instead: how to approach a task, which steps to follow, what good output looks like. Skills are plain Markdown, so they need no server, no API key and no runtime, and they work with any model.
