GitHub Operations
MANDATORY: Always use gh CLI for all GitHub operations. Verify gh auth status before starting.
Critical Patterns
- Use
--draftfor WIP,gh pr readywhen done - Keep PRs <400 lines
- Include Summary + Test plan in PR body
- PR titles: Match branch format with JIRA ticket if present (e.g.,
TICKET-123: Add user authentication) - Provide context in descriptions
- Never commit secrets (use
gh secret set NAME --body "value")
