What it is
github-project-skills is a pack of agent skills and subagents for GitHub project management. The README describes GitHub CLI based workflows for issues, labels, milestones, branches, and Project v2 board synchronization.
Why it is useful
Coding agents frequently need to prepare or update project state, not only edit files. This pack gives the agent explicit GitHub project workflows without requiring a custom MCP server.
Best uses
- Triage and label incoming GitHub issues.
- Keep GitHub Project boards aligned with repository state.
- Link branches, issues, milestones, and planning work.
Notes
It relies on the local gh CLI and repository-level project configuration. That makes authentication simpler, but also means the local GitHub context must be correct.
