Safely manage multiple GitHub identities (EMU + personal) in agent workflows.
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
## Context Many developers use GitHub through an Enterprise Managed User (EMU) account at work while maintaining a personal GitHub account for open-source contributions. AI agents spawned by Squad inherit the shell's default `gh` authentication — which is usually the EMU account. This causes failures when agents try to push to personal repos, create PRs on forks, or interact with resources outside the enterprise org. This skill teaches agents how to detect the active identity, switch contexts safely, and avoid mixing credentials across operations. ## Patterns ### Detect Current Identity Before any GitHub operation, check which account is active: ```bash gh auth status ``` Look for: - `Logged in to github.com as USERNAME` — the active account - `Token scopes: ...` — what permissions are available - Multiple accounts will show separate entries ### Extract a Specific Account's Token When you need to operate as a specific user (not the default): ```bash # Get the personal account token (by username) gh auth token --user personaluser # Get the EMU account token gh auth token --user corpalias_enterprise ``` …

How to install
mdr add bradygaster/squad/gh-auth-isolation@sha256:813f70bbad2b8b4bThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260405.a722c39, 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.
