Add Comment to Discussion

Get discussion ID first, then add comment using variables to avoid escaping:

# Get discussion ID
gh api graphql -f query='
{
  repository(owner: "carlos-algms", name: "agentic.nvim") {
    discussion(number: 108) {
      id
    }
  }
}' --jq '.data.repository.discussion.id'

# Add comment using file for complex content
COMMENT_BODY=$(cat comment.md)
gh api graphql -F discussionId="D_kwDOQXqKi84..." -F body="$COMMENT_BODY" -f query='
mutation($discussionId: ID!, $body: String!) {
  addDiscussionComment(input: {
    discussionId: $discussionId,
    body: $body
  }) {
    comment {
      id
      url
    }
  }
}'

Update Discussion Comment

Requires comment ID (starts with DC_):

gh api graphql -f query='
mutation {
  updateDiscussionComment(input: {
    commentId: "DC_kwDOQXqKi84...",
    body: "Updated comment body"
  }) {
    comment {
      id
      url
    }
  }
}'

Critical Notes

• Escape quotes in body: use \" for literal quotes
• No native command: gh discussion doesn't exist
• Repo owner: carlos-algms (not carlos.gomes)
• Return the discussion URL when done
