Work with GitHub repositories, source code, branches, commits, pushes, pull requests, reviews, diffs, and CI runs. Use for repo implementation tasks, source-code investigation, cloning/fetching, branch and push workflows, PR creation, PR updates, PR review feedback, and GitHub Actions checks. Prefer this skill for repository and code tasks even when the repo concerns Sentry products.

🧰 Not standalone. This skill ships with getsentry/junior and only works together with that tool — install the tool first, then add this skill.

This is the playbook your agent receives when the skill activates — you don't need to read it to use the skill, but it's here to audit before installing.

GitHub code

Use git and gh for repository work.

Always

  • Use the requested repo. Otherwise read github.repo with standalone jr-rpc config get github.repo.
  • Pass --repo owner/repo to gh. Use git -C PATH for local repos.
  • Read each applicable AGENTS.md before edits.
  • Keep unrelated work. Never force-push, delete refs, or make destructive merges.
  • Use repository evidence. Report only checks you ran.
  • Push before github_createPullRequest. Never ask for a token for bot pushes.
  • When an error names a tool, use it. Change permissions only when GitHub rejected the request.
  • Stop for an unclear target, missing access, destructive work, or a GitHub permission failure.
  • Unless the user opts out, push completed work and open a draft PR.
  • Report repo, branch, PR, checks, and skipped checks.

Do not install or repair the GitHub plugin from this skill.
