GitHub
Use this skill as the entrypoint for general GitHub work. It combines structured remote GitHub data from the iPolloWork GitHub service with the current local checkout.
Service boundary
- Call
ipollowork_extension_list_actionswithextensionId: "github"before using the service. - Use
ipollowork_extension_callonly with the declared GitHub actions and explicitownerandrepovalues. - Use local
gitfor branch, status, diff, commit, and push operations. - Never request, print, or place the GitHub token in a prompt, command, file, or environment variable. iPolloWork owns the credential.
Routing
- Resolve the repository from the user's URL or request. For requests about the current checkout, inspect the local remote and branch first.
- Classify the job:
- General repository, PR, or Issue understanding stays here.
- Unresolved review feedback uses
github-review-follow-up. - Failing GitHub Actions uses
github-ci-debug. - Commit, push, and Draft PR creation uses
github-publish-changes.
- Switch to the specialist workflow immediately once the intent is clear.
General workflow
- Use
repository-contextto confirm the target and default branch. - Use
list-pull-requests,pull-request-detail,list-issues, orissue-detailfor the requested scope. - Summarize current state, important evidence, and the smallest useful next action.
- Before a write action, restate the exact repository and target. iPolloWork will request confirmation for service writes.
Do not invent repository search results. If the repository cannot be derived from the request or current checkout, ask for owner/repo.
