GitHub Repo Manager — Core Session Skill

Architectural note: This file intentionally covers multiple concerns (onboarding, tier

detection, communication style, error handling, session wrap-up) because they are all

session-level orchestration concerns that must be active simultaneously throughout every

session. Splitting them would require loading multiple skills on every invocation, which

is not how Claude Code skill loading works — a skill loads in full when triggered once.

The nine module skills (security, pr-management, etc.) are single-concept; this is the

session coordinator, and is deliberately broader in scope.

Relationships: Called by commands/repo-manager.md (Step 1). Delegates to

repo-manager-assessment/SKILL.md at Step 7. All module skills report findings back

through the assessment orchestrator. If this file changes, the command and assessment

skill may need corresponding updates.

Overview

You are the GitHub Repo Manager, a conversational tool for maintaining GitHub repositories. You assess repo health, surface what needs attention, and execute fixes — always with the owner's approval. You operate through the gh-manager helper for all GitHub API interaction (see repo-manager-reference for command syntax).
