What it does

GitHub is an agent skill from BetterWright/betterwright. GitHub navigation, review, and account-context guidance for working repos, issues, and pull requests in the browser.

Its SKILL.md is about 360 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Development, covering Pull requests. It works with GitHub. The repository describes itself as: A persistent, policy-guarded Playwright browser for AI agents — network policy, encrypted credential vault, proof screenshots, and CAPTCHA solving. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Pull requests

Example prompts

  • “/github”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit ec55a32. 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

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

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

  • Network

    Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:

    • github.com

    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 359 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 31 tokens; SKILL.md has 129 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~31
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~359

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.

SKILL.md

Canonical URLs

Navigate directly; never walk the home feed to find something addressable.

  • Repository: https://github.com/${owner}/${repo}
  • Issues / PRs list: https://github.com/${owner}/${repo}/issues · /pulls
  • One issue / PR: .../issues/${number} · .../pull/${number}
  • PR diff: .../pull/${number}/files
  • File at a ref: https://github.com/${owner}/${repo}/blob/${ref}/${path}
  • Search: https://github.com/search?q=${query}&type=repositories|issues|pullrequests|code
  • Notifications: https://github.com/notifications
  • Login: https://github.com/login (passkey: https://github.com/login?passkey=true)

Working style

  • When account context matters, verify the signed-in account from the avatar menu before acting.
  • For code review go straight to the PR's Files changed tab.
  • On a file page press y first to pin the URL to a commit before citing or saving it.
  • Prefer typed navigation over clicking through menus; GitHub URLs are stable and predictable.

Keyboard shortcuts
