# gh-issues — Auto-fix GitHub Issues with Parallel Sub-agents

You are an orchestrator. Follow these 6 phases exactly. Do not skip phases.

IMPORTANT — No `gh` CLI dependency. This skill uses curl + the GitHub REST API exclusively. The GH_TOKEN env var is already injected by OpenClaw. Pass it as a Bearer token in all API calls:

```
curl -s -H "Authorization: Bearer $GH_TOKEN" -H "Accept: application/vnd.github+json" ...
```

---

## Phase 1 — Parse Arguments

Parse the arguments string provided after /gh-issues.

Positional:

- owner/repo — optional. This is the source repo to fetch issues from. If omitted, detect from the current git remote:
  `git remote get-url origin`
  Extract owner/repo from the URL (handles both HTTPS and SSH formats).
  - HTTPS: https://github.com/owner/repo.git → owner/repo
  - SSH: git@github.com:owner/repo.git → owner/repo
    If not in a git repo or no remote found, stop with an error asking the user to specify owner/repo.

Flags (all optional):
| Flag | Default | Description |
|------|---------|-------------|
| --label | _(none)_ | Filter by label (e.g. bug, `enhancement`) |
| --limit | 10 | Max issues to fetch per poll |
| --milestone | _(none)_ | Filter by milestone title |
| --assignee | _(none)_ | Filter by assignee (`@me` for self) |
| --state | open | Issue state: open, closed, all |
| --fork | _(none)_ | Your fork (`user/repo`) to push branches and open PRs from. Issues are fetched from the source repo; code is pushed to the fork; PRs are opened from the fork to the source repo. |
| --watch | false | Keep polling for new issues and PR reviews after each batch |
| --interval | 5 | Minutes between polls (only with `--watch`) |
| --dry-run | false | Fetch and display only — no sub-agents |
| --yes | false | Skip confirmation and auto-process all filtered issues |
| --reviews-only | false | Skip issue processing (Phases 2-5). Only run Phase 6 — check open PRs for review comments and address them. |
| --cron | false | Cron-safe mode: fetch issues and spawn sub-agents, exit without waiting for results. |
| --model | _(none)_ | Model to use for sub-agents (e.g. `glm-5`, `zai/glm-5`). If not specified, uses the agent's default model. |
| --notify-channel | _(none)_ | Telegram channel ID to send final PR summary to (e.g. -1002381931352). Only the final result with PR links is sent, not status updates. |

Store parsed values for use in subsequent phases.

Derived values:

- SOURCE_REPO = the positional owner/repo (where issues live)
- PUSH_REPO = --fork value if provided, otherwise same as SOURCE_REPO
- FORK_MODE = true if --fork was provided, false otherwise

**If `--reviews-only` is set:** Skip directly to Phase 6. Run token resolution (from Phase 2) first, then jump to Phase 6.

**If `--cron` is set:**

- Force `--yes` (skip confirmation)
- If `--reviews-only` is also set, run token resolution then jump to Phase 6 (cron review mode)
- Otherwise, proceed normally through Phases 2-5 with cron-mode behavior active

## Phase 2 — Fetch Issues

**Token Resolution:**
First, ensure GH_TOKEN is available. Check environment:

```
echo $GH_TOKEN
```

If empty, read from config:

```
cat ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json | jq -r '.skills.entries["gh-issues"].apiKey // empty'
```

If still empty, check `/data/.clawdbot/openclaw.json`:

```
cat /data/.clawdbot/openclaw.json | jq -r '.skills.entries["gh-issues"].apiKey // empty'
```

Export as GH_TOKEN for subsequent commands:

```
export GH_TOKEN="<token>"
```

Build and run a curl request to the GitHub Issues API via exec:

```
curl -s -H "Authorization: Bearer $GH_TOKEN" -H "Accept: application/vnd.github+json" \
  "https://api.github.com/repos/{SOURCE_REPO}/issues?per_page={limit}&state={state}&{query_params}"
```

Where {query_params} is built from:

- labels={label} if --label was provided
- milestone={milestone} if --milestone was provided (note: API expects milestone _number_, so if user provides a title, first resolve it via GET /repos/{SOURCE_REPO}/milestones and match by title)
- assignee={assignee} if --assignee was provided (if @me, first resolve your username via `GET /user`)

IMPORTANT: The GitHub Issues API also returns pull requests. Filter them out — exclude any item where pull_request key exists in the response object.

If in watch mode: Also filter out any issue numbers already in the PROCESSED_ISSUES set from previous batches.

Error handling:

- If curl returns an HTTP 401 or 403 → stop and tell the user:
  > "GitHub authentication failed. Please check your apiKey in the OpenClaw dashboard or in ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json under skills.entries.gh-issues."
- If the response is an empty array (after filtering) → report "No issues found matching filters" and stop (or loop back if in watch mode).
- If curl fails or returns any other error → report the error verbatim and stop.

Parse the JSON response. For each issue, extract: number, title, body, labels (array of label names), assignees, html_url.
