What it does
Gh Issue Sync is an agent skill from mitsuhiko/gh-issue-sync. Manage GitHub issues locally as Markdown files. Use for triaging, searching, editing, and creating issues without leaving your editor or terminal.
Its SKILL.md is about 480 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 1 other file.
It works with GitHub. The repository describes itself as: A github issue sync tool for working with issues locally. The licence is Apache-2.0.
When your agent uses it
- Creating issues without leaving your editor
Example prompts
- “/gh-issue-sync”
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 955fe4c. 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 (Go), 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
Gh Issue Sync loads about 484 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 40 tokens; SKILL.md has 110 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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

Issue body in Markdown.Issue number is derived from the filename, not stored in frontmatter.
Temporary Issues
New issues get a T-prefixed ID (e.g., T1a2b3c). The filename must start with T:
.issues/open/T1a2b3c-my-new-issue.mdOn push, the file is renamed to the real issue number (e.g., 42-my-new-issue.md) and number: in frontmatter is updated. Any #T1a2b3c references in other issues are also updated to #42.
Comments
To post a comment when pushing, create a .comment.md file next to the issue:
.issues/open/42.comment.md
.issues/open/42-fix-login-bug.comment.mdContent is plain Markdown. The file is deleted after the comment is posted.
