skills/platform/gh-cli/SKILL.md
Use when you need gh CLI patterns beyond the basics — debugging failed workflow runs, bulk PR operations, release automation, or repo health checks. Provides composable gh invocations for power users. NOT for simple git commands (use Bash) or GitLab (use the glab-cli skill).

GitHub CLI Power Utilities
Intelligent wrappers and patterns for GitHub CLI that go beyond basic commands.
When to Use
- Debugging failed GitHub Actions (get actionable errors, not walls of logs)
- Managing PRs across multiple repos
- Automating releases with proper changelogs
- Bulk operations on issues/PRs
- Repository health checks
Prerequisites
brew install gh && gh auth login # macOS
Core Capabilities
1. Smart Failure Analysis
Don't wade through logs - get the actual errors.
# Get actionable error summary
sh "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/_python.sh" "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/platform/gh-cli/scripts/gh_ops.py" diagnose
# Specific repo
sh "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/_python.sh" "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/platform/gh-cli/scripts/gh_ops.py" diagnose --repo owner/repo
# With suggested fixes
sh "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/_python.sh" "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/platform/gh-cli/scripts/gh_ops.py" diagnose --suggest-fixes
Output: Structured error summary with job timelines, extracted failures, and fix suggestions based on common patterns.
2. PR Operations
Bulk PR management that scales.
# List PRs needing review across your repos
sh "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/_python.sh" "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/platform/gh-cli/scripts/gh_ops.py" pr-review-queue
# Merge all approved PRs (with safety checks)
sh "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/_python.sh" "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/platform/gh-cli/scripts/gh_ops.py" pr-merge-ready --dry-run
# PR health check (conflicts, checks, reviews)
sh "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/_python.sh" "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/platform/gh-cli/scripts/gh_ops.py" pr-status 123
3. Release Automation
Generate releases with proper changelogs.
# Create release from unreleased commits
sh "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/_python.sh" "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/platform/gh-cli/scripts/gh_ops.py" release --bump minor
# Preview changelog without releasing
sh "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/_python.sh" "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/platform/gh-cli/scripts/gh_ops.py" release --dry-run
# Release with custom notes
sh "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/_python.sh" "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/platform/gh-cli/scripts/gh_ops.py" release --notes "Breaking: API v2"
4. Repo Health
Quick health check for repositories.
sh "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/_python.sh" "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/platform/gh-cli/scripts/gh_ops.py" health
Checks: Branch protection, required reviews, CI status, security advisories, dependency alerts.
Quick Patterns
# Watch CI and notify on completion
gh run watch && osascript -e 'display notification "CI Done"'
# Open PR for current branch
gh pr create --fill --web
# Checkout PR locally
gh pr checkout 123
# View PR diff in terminal
gh pr diff 123
# Re-run failed jobs only
gh run rerun --failed
# List your open PRs across all repos
gh search prs --author=@me --state=open
Integration with Other Tools
Works well with:
- wicked-garden:search: Find code patterns, then use gh to create issues
- Native tasks: Track PR status alongside tasks via TaskUpdate description appends

mikeparcewski/wicked-garden:classify
testing
VerifiedTrustedCommunity
v11 LLM-based work-shape classifier. Replaces the regex archetype detector with the model's own reasoning. Reads the user's prompt, picks the right archetype(s) from the catalog, identifies signals (blast_radius, novelty, reversibility, etc.), and persists to SessionState so subsequent turns steer correctly. Use when: the prompt_submit hook emitted a `<wg classify-due />` directive, OR explicitly invoked at session start, OR when re-classifying after the user changes scope mid-session.

mikeparcewski/wicked-garden:archetype

VerifiedTrustedCommunity
v11 work-shape archetype runner. When a prompt has been routed to one of the 9 archetypes (triage, explore, specify, decide, ship, review, incident, build, migrate), this skill is the entry point. It picks the right per-archetype playbook from refs/ and executes the phase shape declared in `.claude-plugin/archetypes.json`. Use when: a `<wg archetype="X">` or `<wg archetypes>` system-reminder tag appears, an explicit "let's run the X archetype" request, or when one of the per-archetype slash commands resolves to this skill.

mikeparcewski/intent
development
VerifiedTrustedCommunity
Show or set the session intent variable. Intent gates how loud the framework is — simple-edit (silent), feature/research (synthesis directive), rigor (full crew context). Auto-detected on turn 1; this skill overrides explicitly. Sticky for the session. Use when: "set intent", "intent override", "/wicked-garden:intent", "make the framework quiet", "force rigor", "what's my intent".
