At a glance

Create a GitHub issue following project guidelines. An agent skill from gittower/git-flow-next.

  • Development work in your project
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

Gh Issue is an agent skill from gittower/git-flow-next. Create a GitHub issue following project guidelines

Its SKILL.md is about 320 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. It works with GitHub. The repository describes itself as: A modern reimplementation of git-flow in Go that offers greater flexibility while maintaining backward compatibility with the original git-flow and git-flow-avh.

When your agent uses it

  • Development work in your project

Example prompts

  • “/gh-issue”

Requirements

  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Read, Grep, Glob, mcp__github__create_issue, mcp__github__list_issues, mcp__github__search_issues

Workflow steps

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

  1. Read ISSUE_GUIDELINES.md for all formatting rules and conventions
  2. Gather Information
  3. Check for Duplicates
  4. Create the Issue
  5. Report Result

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 00d1b4b. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:

    • Read
    • Grep
    • Glob
    • mcp__github__create_issue
    • mcp__github__list_issues
    • mcp__github__search_issues

    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

    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

Gh Issue loads about 321 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 15 tokens; SKILL.md has 131 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~15
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~321

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

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 131 words (~321 tokens).

“Create a new GitHub issue for the gittower/git-flow-next repository.”
