Is this skill suitable for remote development environments?

Yes, it includes a session-start hook specifically designed to configure authentication tokens for remote environments automatically.

How do I handle authentication for this skill?

The skill prefers a GITHUB_TOKEN defined in your .env file. If that is not available, it will attempt to use your existing gh CLI authentication status.

What pull request actions are supported?

Claude can list pull requests (including filtering by state), view specific PR details, and create new pull requests with custom titles, bodies, and base branches.

Can I manage issues in repositories other than the current project?

Yes, this skill is designed for cross-repository operations. You can target any repository using the -R or --repo flag followed by the owner/repo name.

Does this skill require the GitHub CLI to be installed?

While the GitHub CLI (gh) is supported as a fallback, the skill can operate using only curl and a GITHUB_TOKEN, making it functional even when the CLI is unavailable.
