GitHub CLI

GitHub CLI is a command-line tool that brings pull requests, issues, GitHub Actions, and other GitHub features to your terminal, so you can do all your work in one place.

GitHub CLI is an open source tool for using GitHub from your computer's command line. When you're working from the command line, you can use the GitHub CLI to save time and avoid switching context.

GitHub CLI includes GitHub features such as:

  • View, create, clone, and fork repositories
  • Create, close, edit, and view issues and pull requests
  • Review, diff, and merge pull requests
  • Run, view, and list workflows
  • Create, list, view, and delete releases
  • Create, edit, list, view, and delete gists
  • List, create, delete, and connect to a codespace
