Overview

Use this skill as the umbrella entrypoint for general GitHub work in this plugin. It should decide whether the task stays in repo and PR triage or should be handed off to a more specific review, CI, or publish workflow.

This plugin is intentionally hybrid:

  • Prefer the GitHub app from this plugin for repository, issue, pull request, comment, label, reaction, and PR creation workflows.
  • Use local git and gh only when the connector does not cover the job well, especially for current-branch PR discovery, branch creation, commit and push, gh auth status, and GitHub Actions log inspection.
  • Keep connector state and local checkout context aligned. If the request is about the current branch, resolve the local repo and branch before acting.

Once the intent is clear, route to the specialist skill immediately and do not keep broad GitHub triage in scope longer than needed.

Connector-First Responsibilities

Handle these directly in this skill when the request does not need a narrower specialist workflow:

  • repository orientation once the repo, PR, issue, or local checkout is identified
