GitHub Ecosystem Configuration Generator

Generates production-ready GitHub configuration for any project.

Quick Start

Run in a project directory to auto-detect language and generate configuration:

python scripts/generate_github_config.py --project-path .

Supported Languages

| Language | Detection Files | CI Tools | |------------|-------------------------------|------------------------------------| | Python | pyproject.toml, setup.py | ruff, mypy, bandit, pytest | | Go | go.mod | golangci-lint, go test | | TypeScript | package.json + tsconfig.json | eslint, prettier, tsc, vitest/jest |

Components

GitHub Actions Workflows

ci.yml - Continuous Integration

  • Multi-version test matrix
  • Code quality checks (lint, format, typecheck)
  • Security scanning
  • Coverage reporting
  • Build verification

release.yml (optional) - Release Automation

  • Version bumping
  • GitHub Release creation
  • Package publishing
  • Changelog generation

docker.yml (optional) - Container Builds

  • Multi-platform builds (amd64, arm64)
  • GHCR publishing
  • Caching optimization

Issue Templates

  • bug_report.md - Structured bug reporting
  • feature_request.md - Feature proposals with API examples
  • config.yml - Template chooser configuration

Other Templates

  • PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE.md - PR checklist with change types
  • CODEOWNERS - Code ownership definitions
  • dependabot.yml - Automated dependency updates
  • copilot-instructions.md - GitHub Copilot context

Configuration Options

| Option | Default | Description | |--------|---------|-------------| | --project-path | . | Project directory | | --language | (auto) | Force language: python, go, typescript | | --components | all | Comma-separated: workflows,templates,dependabot,codeowners,copilot | | --include-release | false | Include release workflow | | --include-docker | false | Include docker workflow | | --codeowners | (optional) | CODEOWNERS entries (e.g., "* @team") | | --overwrite | false | Overwrite existing files |

Enhancement Mode

When .github/ already exists, the skill enters enhancement mode:

  • Detects existing configuration
  • Shows what will be added/modified
  • Merges without overwriting (unless --overwrite)
  • Preserves custom modifications

Language-Specific Details

See reference files for detailed workflow patterns:

  • references/python-workflow.md - Python CI/CD patterns
  • references/go-workflow.md - Go CI/CD patterns
  • references/typescript-workflow.md - TypeScript CI/CD patterns

Post-Generation

After generation:

  1. Review generated workflows for your needs
  2. Add any required secrets (e.g., PYPI_API_TOKEN for publishing)
  3. Customize version matrices if needed
  4. Update CODEOWNERS with actual team handles
