GitHub CLI (gh)

Overview

Provides specialized utilities for GitHub CLI operations with three powerful Python tools for common workflows, plus general guidance for effective gh command usage.

Core Capabilities

1. Enhanced Code Search

Use scripts/gh_code_search.py for advanced GitHub code search with filtering, formatting, and sorting capabilities.

Key features: Multiple output formats, rate limiting handling, fork/private repo filtering, match count filtering

Documentation: references/README_gh_code_search.md

2. Workflow Failure Analysis

Use scripts/gh_failed_run.py to analyze GitHub Actions workflow failures and extract detailed error information.

Key features: Finds most recent failed run, extracts error patterns from logs, outputs structured JSON with run info and failed jobs

Documentation: references/README_gh_failed_run.md

3. GitHub Pages Management

Use scripts/gh_pages_deploy.py for GitHub Pages deployment automation including enabling Pages, status checks, and workflow generation.

Key features: Enable/configure Pages, check deployment status, trigger rebuilds, generate workflow templates

Documentation: references/README_pages.md

General GitHub CLI Best Practices

When working with GitHub CLI:

Prefer gh commands over raw git commands for GitHub-specific operations (issues, PRs, releases)
Use gh repo view to quickly inspect repository details
Leverage gh pr create --web or gh issue create --web for interactive workflows
Check gh --help for discovering subcommands and capabilities
Use gh alias to create shortcuts for frequently used command patterns

Using the Python Utilities

All scripts accept --help for detailed usage information. Run them directly with Python 3:

python3 scripts/gh_code_search.py --help
python3 scripts/gh_failed_run.py --help
python3 scripts/gh_pages_deploy.py --help

Refer to the respective README files in references/ for comprehensive documentation, examples, and troubleshooting guidance.
