Instructions

# GitHub CLI Setup

Configure `gh` CLI for GitHub access.

## Quick Setup

```bash
gh auth login
```

Select: GitHub.com → HTTPS → Login with browser

## Verify Authentication

```bash
gh auth status
gh api user --jq '.login'
```

## Troubleshooting

If `gh` commands fail:

1. **Check authentication** - `gh auth status`
2. **Re-login if needed** - `gh auth login`
3. **Check scopes** - Ensure token has repo access
4. **Update gh** - `brew upgrade gh` or equivalent
