Does it support GitHub Actions?

Yes, it automatically sets up workflows for syncing labels and running the GitHub Labeler to categorize PRs based on changed files.

Is the generated configuration customizable?

Yes. The skill asks for project details like the name and project type (Web, Backend, CLI, etc.) to customize the templates, and you are encouraged to manually adjust the files after generation.

What files does the GitHub Setup skill create?

It generates Issue templates (bug, feature, improvement), a PR template, Copilot instructions, label definitions (labels.yml), and GitHub Action workflows for labeling and synchronization.

Will this skill overwrite my existing .github configurations?

The skill performs a check for existing files. It will prompt you for confirmation before overwriting anything unless you explicitly use the --force flag.

Can I preview the files before they are created?

Yes, you can use the --dry-run argument to see exactly which files will be generated and where they will be placed without actually writing them to disk.
