Github

GitHub

Use gh for GitHub. Use git for local commits/branches/push/pull. Use code-reading tools for deep reviews.

Auth

gh auth status
gh auth login

Gateway HOME can differ from operator HOME. If gh auth exists elsewhere, set GH_CONFIG_DIR in the gateway service env and restart.

PRs

gh pr list --repo owner/repo --json number,title,state,author,url
gh pr view 55 --repo owner/repo --json title,body,author,files,commits,reviews,reviewDecision
gh pr checks 55 --repo owner/repo
gh pr diff 55 --repo owner/repo
gh pr create --repo owner/repo --title "feat: title" --body-file /tmp/pr.md
gh pr merge 55 --repo owner/repo --squash

URLs work directly: gh pr view https://github.com/owner/repo/pull/55.
