# GitHub CLI

Help Claude use the GitHub command line the right way

## What this does

When you ask Claude to look things up or act on GitHub through the gh command line tool, there are easy ways to get it wrong. This gives Claude working patterns for structured output, paging through results, choosing the right repository, and knowing when to search versus list.

### Top 3 things it does for you

- Get GitHub results back in a structured form
- Page through long GitHub result lists
- Point commands at the right repository

A scan is named by the exact content it read, not by a version number. A different version is a different artifact, and nothing here applies to a version AIR has not scanned.

## Questions

### Is GitHub CLI safe to install?

AIR scanned this exact version of GitHub CLI and flagged nothing. AIR's verdict: safe. The verdict is named by the content that was read, at commit b9f99e852546, so it cannot drift onto a version nobody scanned. The full report is at https://airmarket.ai/security/gh.

### How do I install GitHub CLI?

Open https://airmarket.ai/app/gh on Air Market and use the install action: Air Market hands Claude a prompt naming this exact skill, and Claude sets it up. Source, pinned to the exact commit this listing describes: https://github.com/cli/cli/tree/b9f99e85254629a7771a43bfa73b423d3b3e3836/skills/gh. Install from that link, not the branch.
