githubbing

Githubbing installs and configures the GitHub CLI (gh) tool within Claude containers to enable authenticated operations like creating issues, opening pull requests, and querying repositories. Use this skill when you need to perform GitHub actions programmatically beyond simple API calls, particularly when authentication and command-line operations provide clearer workflows than direct API integration.

# Githubbing

Install and use GitHub CLI (`gh`) for authenticated GitHub operations.

## 1. Install

```bash
bash /path/to/githubbing/scripts/install-gh.sh
```

## 2. Configure Authentication

`gh` reads tokens from `GH_TOKEN` or `GITHUB_TOKEN` environment variables.

```python
from configuring import get_env
import os

token = get_env("GH_TOKEN") or get_env("GITHUB_TOKEN")
if token:
    os.environ["GH_TOKEN"] = token
```

## 3. Verify

```bash
gh auth status
```
