Script Reference

PR Operations (scripts/pr/)

Issue Operations (scripts/issue/)

Milestone Operations (scripts/milestone/)

Reactions (scripts/reactions/)

Output Format

All scripts output structured JSON with Success boolean:

$result = pwsh -NoProfile scripts/pr/Get-PRContext.ps1 -PullRequest 50 | ConvertFrom-Json
if ($result.Success) { ... }

Process

This skill provides a toolkit of PowerShell scripts for GitHub operations. Use scripts directly or compose them into workflows.

Basic Usage:

1. Identify the operation needed using the Decision Tree
2. Find the corresponding script in the Script Reference
3. Call the script with required parameters
4. Parse the JSON output and check Success field

Example Flow:

# Get PR context
$pr = pwsh scripts/pr/Get-PRContext.ps1 -PullRequest 123 | ConvertFrom-Json

# Check CI status
$checks = pwsh scripts/pr/Get-PRChecks.ps1 -PullRequest 123 | ConvertFrom-Json

# Add comment if needed
if ($checks.FailedCount -gt 0) {
    pwsh scripts/pr/Post-PRCommentReply.ps1 -PullRequest 123 -Body "CI failures detected"
}

Verification

Before completing a GitHub operation:

• Correct script selected from Decision Tree
• Required parameters provided (PR/issue number)
• Response JSON parsed successfully
• Success: true in response
• State change verified (for mutating operations)
