GitHub CLI for remote repository analysis, file fetching, codebase comparison, and discovering trending code/repos. Use when analyzing repos without cloning, comparing codebases, or searching for popular GitHub projects.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# GitHub CLI - Remote Analysis & Discovery
Remote repository operations, codebase comparison, and code discovery without cloning.
## When to Use
- Analyze repositories without cloning
- Compare codebases side-by-side
- Fetch specific files from any repo
- Find trending repositories and code patterns
- Search code across GitHub
## Quick Operations
### Fetch a file remotely
```bash
gh repo read-file path/file.ts --repo OWNER/REPO
```
`gh repo read-file` (preview) is the preferred path: it prints raw content, takes `--ref` for any branch/tag/commit, and handles large files. `--output PATH` writes to disk (`--clobber` to overwrite); `--json` returns metadata (`content, downloadUrl, encoding, gitSHA, gitUrl, htmlUrl, name, path, size, type, url`). Fall back to `gh api` where the command is unavailable:
```bash
gh api repos/OWNER/REPO/contents/path/file.ts -H "Accept: application/vnd.github.raw"
```
There is **no `base64decode` template function** - `--template '{{.content | base64decode}}'` fails with `function "base64decode" not defined`. To decode the default JSON response, pipe it:
```bash
gh api repos/OWNER/REPO/contents/path/file.ts --jq '.content' | base64 -d
```
…Read the whole file at its exact version.
How to install
mdr add tenequm/skills/gh-cli@sha256:a9c03bbb88f0c13aThe line at the top of this page pins the label v1.4.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
