# gh-read-inspector

Use this skill for GitHub metadata lookup only. No write operations.

## Guardrails

- Use only `python3 .codex/skills/gh-read-inspector/scripts/gh_read_inspector.py ...`.
- Do not run ad-hoc `gh` commands from this skill.
- If `gh` is missing, stop and ask the user to install GitHub CLI (`https://cli.github.com/`).
