Gh Issue Replier

Overview

The gh-issue-replier skill enables Gemini CLI to interact with GitHub issues professionally. It enforces English for all communications and leverages the gh CLI to post comments.

Workflow

  1. Identify the Issue: Find the issue number (e.g., #49).
  2. Check Star Status: Run the bundled script to check if the author has starred the repo.
    • Command: bash scripts/check_star.sh <issue-number>
    • Interpretation:
      • Exit code 0: User has starred. Use "Already Starred" templates.
      • Exit code 1: User has NOT starred. Include "Star Request" in the reply.
  3. Select a Template: Load templates.md to choose a suitable English response pattern.
  4. Draft the Reply: Compose a concise message based on the star status.
  5. Post the Comment: Use the gh tool to submit the reply.

Tool Integration

Check Star Status

bash scripts/check_star.sh <issue-number>

Post Comment

gh issue comment <issue-number> --body "<message-body>"

Example (if user has NOT starred):

gh issue comment 49 --body "This has been fixed in v1.2.7. If you find this helpful, a star on the repo would be much appreciated! ⭐"

Example (if user HAS starred):

gh issue comment 49 --body "This has been fixed in v1.2.7. Thanks for your support!"

Guidelines

  • Language: ALWAYS use English for the comment body, even if the system prompt or user conversation is in another language.
  • Tone: Professional, helpful, and appreciative.
  • Precision: When announcing a fix, mention the specific version or the logic change (e.g., "Updated regex pattern").
  • Closing: If the issue is resolved and you have permission, you can also use gh issue close <number>.
