Search GitHub Issues

Search for issues in any GitHub repository using the github-issues skill.

Usage

/git:search-issues anthropics/claude-code path doubling
/git:search-issues owner/repo "error message" --label bug
/git:search-issues owner/repo feature request --state open

Arguments

  • First argument: Repository in owner/repo format (required)
  • Remaining arguments: Search terms (required)
  • --label: Filter by label (optional, can be repeated)
  • --state: Filter by state: open, closed, or all (default: all)
  • --format: Output format: compact, table, or detailed (default: compact)
  • --limit: Maximum results (default: 15)

Workflow

  1. Parse arguments - Extract repo, search terms, and options

  3. Check gh CLI availability - Fall back to web if unavailable
  4. Execute search - Run appropriate search command
  5. Format results - Apply requested output format
  6. Report findings - Display results to user

Detailed

**State:** open | **Labels:** bug, hooks | **Created:** 2024-12-01
**URL:** https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code/issues/11984

When using cd && in PowerShell, paths get doubled causing script failures...

**Workaround:** Use absolute paths instead of cd &&

  • Prefers gh CLI when available, falls back to web search
