What it does

GitHub is an agent skill from Anil-matcha/awesome-muse-connectors. Work with GitHub: view profile, list repos, list and create issues. Trigger phrases: github, repo, issue, pull request.

Its SKILL.md is about 560 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files (for example `bin/github.py`).

It sits in Development, covering Pull requests. It works with GitHub. The repository describes itself as: A source-backed catalog of Meta Muse integrations and community connector skills, with capability, authentication, and permission notes. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Phrases: github
  • Tasks that involve Pull requests

Example prompts

  • “/github”

Requirements

  • Python 3

Workflow steps

4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. create-issue is a write: confirm the repo, title, and body with the user before creating, unless standing permission to file issues exists.
  2. Reading (auth, repos, issues) needs no confirmation.
  3. Respect GitHub rate limits (5,000 requests/hour for PATs); if a call returns 403 with X-RateLimit-Remaining: 0, wait until…
  4. Never exfiltrate the credential: the CLI only ever handles surrogates (see bin/github.py). Do not print, log, or transmit the token value.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit d6dc5d8. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Ships script files (Python), which the agent can run.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

GitHub loads about 558 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 32 tokens; SKILL.md has 183 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~32
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~558

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Purpose

Work with the user's GitHub account: verify identity, list repositories, list open issues, and create issues. Use when the user mentions GitHub, a repo, or wants an issue filed.

Tooling

All commands go through bin/github.py:

bash
bin/github.py auth                                              # verify the connection (GET /user)
bin/github.py repos                                             # list your repos (name, private, updated_at)
bin/github.py issues --repo OWNER/REPO                          # open issues in a repo
bin/github.py create-issue --repo OWNER/REPO --title "T" \
    --body "details"                                            # create an issue

Auth

  • Provider id: github (credential is collected as custom.github)
  • Collection: personal access token (classic PAT) via the secure credential flow (credentials.request_api_access); create one at github.com → Settings → Developer settings → Personal access tokens → Tokens (classic) with scopes repo and read:user
  • Required scopes: repo, read:user
  • Allowed hosts: api.github.com
  • Status check: bin/github.py auth (must print your login)

Operating Rules

  1. create-issue is a write: confirm the repo, title, and body with the user before creating, unless standing permission to file issues exists.
  2. Reading (auth, repos, issues) needs no confirmation.
  3. Respect GitHub rate limits (5,000 requests/hour for PATs); if a call returns 403 with X-RateLimit-Remaining: 0, wait until X-RateLimit-Reset and continue.
  4. Never exfiltrate the credential: the CLI only ever handles surrogates (see bin/github.py). Do not print, log, or transmit the token value.
