What it does

C GitHub is an agent skill from daxaur/openpaw. Interact with GitHub using the gh CLI and jq. Manage PRs, issues, repositories, and Actions workflows. Make raw API calls with gh api for anything not covered by built-in commands.

Its SKILL.md is about 450 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 CI/CD. It works with GitHub. The repository describes itself as: Personal Assistant Wizard for Claude Code — npx pawmode. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

Tasks that involve CI/CD

Example prompts

“/c-github”

Workflow steps

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

Default to the current repo context when no --repo flag is specified.
Use jq to filter and format gh api JSON output for readability.
For bulk operations, pipe gh issue list --json number,title into jq.
Always confirm before closing issues or merging PRs.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit a2562d1. 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
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
- gh
- jq
- brew
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use gh, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.
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

C GitHub loads about 445 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 49 tokens; SKILL.md has 108 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it: ~49
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches: ~445

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.

gh run watch                        # Watch current run live
gh workflow run deploy.yml

API Calls with `jq`

bash

gh api repos/{owner}/{repo}/pulls | jq '.[].title'
gh api /user/repos | jq '.[].full_name'
gh api graphql -f query='{ viewer { login } }'

Usage Guidelines
