GitHub CLI (gh)

You can interact with GitHub using the gh CLI tool via shell. Use it to manage issues, pull requests, repositories, releases, and more.

Prerequisites

The gh CLI must be installed and authenticated (gh auth login).

Issues

bash

gh issue list                              # list open issues
gh issue list --state all --limit 20       # all issues
gh issue view 123                          # view issue details
gh issue create --title "Bug" --body "..."  # create issue
gh issue close 123                         # close issue
gh issue comment 123 --body "Fixed in #456" # add comment
gh issue list --label "bug" --assignee "@me" # filter

Pull Requests

bash

gh pr list                                 # list open PRs
gh pr view 456                             # view PR details
gh pr create --title "Fix" --body "..."    # create PR
gh pr merge 456                            # merge PR
gh pr checkout 456                         # check out PR locally
gh pr diff 456                             # view PR diff
gh pr review 456 --approve                 # approve PR
gh pr checks 456                           # view CI status
gh pr comment 456 --body "LGTM"            # comment on PR

Repository

bash

gh repo view                               # current repo info
gh repo view owner/repo                    # specific repo
gh repo clone owner/repo                   # clone repo
gh repo create name --public               # create repo
gh repo list owner                         # list repos

Releases

bash

gh release list                            # list releases
gh release view v1.0.0                     # view release
gh release create v1.0.0 --notes "..."     # create release
gh release download v1.0.0                 # download assets

Actions / Workflows

bash

gh run list                                # list workflow runs
gh run view 12345                          # view run details
gh run watch 12345                         # watch run in progress
gh workflow list                           # list workflows
gh workflow run deploy.yml                 # trigger workflow

Search

bash

gh search repos "topic" --limit 10         # search repos
gh search issues "bug" --repo owner/repo   # search issues
gh search prs "fix" --state open           # search PRs

API (Advanced)

bash

gh api repos/owner/repo                    # raw API call
gh api repos/owner/repo/pulls/123/comments # PR comments
gh api graphql -f query='{ viewer { login } }' # GraphQL

Best Practices

Use gh pr create with --body to include a description — don't create empty PRs.
Check gh pr checks before merging to ensure CI passes.
Use gh issue list --label to filter by labels for targeted work.
Prefer gh pr view over opening a browser for quick PR inspection.
Use gh api for operations not covered by built-in commands.
