What its author says it does

Copied from the file, not written here

Manage GitHub via GitHub CLI (gh): repos, issues, pull requests, Actions, releases, secrets/variables, projects, gists, searches, and API access. Auto-activates on: "gh", "github cli", "github issue", "github pr", "pull request", "github actions", "workflow", "run", "github release", "release", "gh api", "github repo", "github secret", "github variable", "ci status", "monitor ci", "check ci", "watch ci", "pr dashboard", "pr overview", "open prs", "my prs", "pr status".

The file declares its own license as MIT. That is the author’s claim about this one file, and it is not the same thing as the license GitHub reports for the repository, which is listed with the other numbers below.

Safety Rules

Confirm before any state-changing operation (create/edit/delete/merge/close).
Never upload secrets as assets.
Treat gh api as powerful: confirm before any write operation.
Never delete or move published releases/tags unless explicitly requested.
When creating PRs, always set an assignee: default to @me unless the user explicitly names someone else.
When creating PRs, apply relevant existing labels when possible; auto-pick from PR context (title/body/branch + changed paths) and avoid creating new labels unless truly necessary.
If labels must be created, retrieve existing labels first (gh label list), propose the minimal set consistent with repo naming, and confirm before gh label create.

Confirmation Policy

Read-only commands are always OK.

Require confirmation:

gh issue create/edit/close/reopen/delete
gh pr create/edit/close/merge/review
gh repo create/edit/rename/archive/delete/sync
gh release create/edit/delete, gh release upload, gh release delete-asset
gh secret set/delete, gh variable set/delete
gh run rerun, gh run cancel
gh api calls that mutate state (POST/PATCH/PUT/DELETE)

Read-Only (No Confirmation Needed)
