description: Load comprehensive GitHub issue information including title, description, comments, labels, assignees, milestones, and related items (linked PRs and cross-references). This skill should be used when planning to fix an issue, when detailed issue context is needed for implementation work, or when a plan command needs to understand the full scope of an issue.

GitHub Issue Reader

Overview

Fetch complete GitHub issue information to provide context for planning and implementation. This skill retrieves all relevant data from a GitHub issue including the description, all comments and discussion, metadata (labels, assignees, milestones), and related items (linked pull requests and cross-referenced issues).

When to Use This Skill

Use this skill when:

  • •Creating a plan to fix or implement an issue
  • •Understanding the full context and discussion around an issue
  • •Gathering requirements from an issue before starting work
  • •Reviewing an issue's history and related work
  • •Analyzing cross-references and linked pull requests

Quick Start

Fetch issue information using the fetch_issue.py script with any of these formats:

bash
# Current repository issue by number
scripts/fetch_issue.py 123

# Specific repository issue
scripts/fetch_issue.py owner/repo#456

# Issue by full URL
scripts/fetch_issue.py https://github.com/owner/repo/issues/789

The script outputs formatted markdown containing all issue information.

Usage Instructions

Prerequisites

Ensure the GitHub CLI (gh) is installed and authenticated:

bash
gh auth status

If not authenticated, run:

bash
gh auth login

Fetching Issue Information

  1. •Issue number (for current repository): 123
  2. •Owner/repo format: owner/repo#123

The script will fetch and output:

  • •Issue number, title, and URL

  • •Author and timestamps (created, updated, closed)
  • •Labels, assignees, and milestone
  • •Full issue description
