GitHub Data Retrieval

This skill focuses on using the gh CLI to efficiently fetch data for repository analysis.

Key Commands

Searching Pull Requests

To find PRs created in a specific timeframe:

gh search prs --repo OWNER/REPO --created "YYYY-MM-DD..YYYY-MM-DD" --json number,author,createdAt,mergedAt,state

Searching Issues

To find issues created in a specific timeframe:

gh search issues --repo OWNER/REPO --created "YYYY-MM-DD..YYYY-MM-DD" --json number,labels,createdAt,closedAt,state

Filtering by Labels

To find bug reports (labels containing "bug"):

gh search issues --repo OWNER/REPO --label "bug" --created "YYYY-MM-DD..YYYY-MM-DD" --json number

Tips for Analysis

Use --limit to ensure you get all results if there are many (default is 30).
Use --json to specify only the fields you need to keep the payload small.
Date ranges use the YYYY-MM-DD..YYYY-MM-DD syntax.
