# GitHub Issues Dump

## What it does
- Reads `GITHUB_TOKEN` from a `.env` file.
- Fetches all issues from a repo (excluding pull requests).
- Writes two files into an output folder:
  - `open.md`
  - `closed.md`
- Each issue includes: title, number, URL, author, created/updated, body, and all comments.

## Usage
Run:
- `python .cursor/skills/github-issues-dump/scripts/export_issues.py --repo OWNER/REPO --out issues_dump`

Optional:
- `--env .env`
- `--since 2025-01-01` (ISO date)
- `--include-labels` (prints labels)
- `--max-comments 0` (0 = all, otherwise limit)

## Required .env
Create `.env` with:
- `GITHUB_TOKEN=ghp_...`
