# GitHub CLI

GitHub CLI, or the gh CLI, is GitHub on the command line. It brings pull requests, issues, and other GitHub concepts to the terminal next to where you are already working with `git` and your code.

> [!IMPORTANT]
> GitHub CLI's PGP signing key rotation for Linux package repositories is effective September 5, 2026; users experiencing package installation or update problems can find solutions in the [public announcement](https://github.com/cli/cli/issues/13118).

GitHub CLI is supported for users on GitHub.com, GitHub Enterprise Cloud, and [supported GitHub Enterprise Server versions](https://docs.github.com/en/enterprise-server/admin/all-releases), with support for macOS, Windows, and Linux.

## Documentation

For [installation options see below](#installation), for usage instructions [see the manual](https://cli.github.com/manual/).

## Agent skills

An [agent skill](https://agentskills.io) is available for driving `gh` from coding agents. Install or update it with the built-in `gh skill` command:

```shell
# Install the skill (user scope recommended)
gh skill install cli/cli gh --scope user

# Update the skill after a `gh` release
gh skill update gh
```

## Contributing

If anything feels off or if you feel that some functionality is missing, please check out the [contributing page](https://github.com/cli/cli/blob/HEAD/.github/CONTRIBUTING.md). There you will find instructions for sharing your feedback, building the tool locally, and submitting pull requests to the project.

If you are a hubber and are interested in shipping new commands for the CLI, check out our [doc on internal contributions](https://github.com/cli/cli/blob/HEAD/docs/working-with-us.md)

### Build from source

See here on how to [build GitHub CLI from source](https://github.com/cli/cli/blob/HEAD/docs/install_source.md).

### GitHub Codespaces

To add GitHub CLI to your codespace, add the following to your [devcontainer file](https://docs.github.com/en/codespaces/setting-up-your-project-for-codespaces/adding-features-to-a-devcontainer-file):

```json
"features": {
  "ghcr.io/devcontainers/features/github-cli:1": {}
}
```

### GitHub Actions

[GitHub-hosted runners](https://docs.github.com/en/actions/using-github-hosted-runners/about-github-hosted-runners) have the GitHub CLI pre-installed, which is updated weekly.

If a specific version is needed, your GitHub Actions workflow will need to install it based on the [macOS](#macos), [Linux & Unix](#linux--unix), or [Windows](#windows) instructions above.

For information on all pre-installed tools, see [`actions/runner-images`](https://github.com/actions/runner-images)

### Verification of binaries

Starting with v2.93.0, releases of `gh` are published as immutable releases. For more information, see [Immutable releases](https://docs.github.com/en/code-security/concepts/supply-chain-security/immutable-releases).

Since version 2.50.0, `gh` has been producing [Build Provenance Attestation](https://github.blog/changelog/2024-06-25-artifact-attestations-is-generally-available/), enabling a cryptographically verifiable paper-trail back to the origin GitHub repository, git revision, and build instructions used. The build provenance attestations are signed and rely on Public Good [Sigstore](https://www.sigstore.dev/) for PKI.

There are two common ways to verify a downloaded release, depending on whether `gh` is already installed or not. If `gh` is installed, it's trivial to verify a new release:

- **Option 1: Using `gh` if already installed:**

  ```shell
  $ gh at verify -R cli/cli gh_2.62.0_macOS_arm64.zip
  Loaded digest sha256:fdb77f31b8a6dd23c3fd858758d692a45f7fc76383e37d475bdcae038df92afc for file://gh_2.62.0_macOS_arm64.zip
  Loaded 1 attestation from GitHub API
  ✓ Verification succeeded!

  sha256:fdb77f31b8a6dd23c3fd858758d692a45f7fc76383e37d475bdcae038df92afc was attested by:
  REPO     PREDICATE_TYPE                  WORKFLOW
  cli/cli  https://slsa.dev/provenance/v1  .github/workflows/deployment.yml@refs/heads/trunk
  ```

- **Option 2: Using Sigstore [`cosign`](https://github.com/sigstore/cosign):**

  To perform this, download the [attestation](https://github.com/cli/cli/attestations) for the downloaded release and use cosign to verify the authenticity of the downloaded release:

  ```shell
  $ cosign verify-blob-attestation --bundle cli-cli-attestation-3120304.sigstore.json \
        --new-bundle-format \
        --certificate-oidc-issuer="https://token.actions.githubusercontent.com" \
        --certificate-identity="https://github.com/cli/cli/.github/workflows/deployment.yml@refs/heads/trunk" \
        gh_2.62.0_macOS_arm64.zip
  Verified OK
  ```

## Comparison with hub

For many years, [hub](https://github.com/github/hub) was the unofficial GitHub CLI tool. `gh` is a new project that helps us explore
what an official GitHub CLI tool can look like with a fundamentally different design. While both
tools bring GitHub to the terminal, `hub` behaves as a proxy to `git`, and `gh` is a standalone
tool. Check out our [more detailed explanation](https://github.com/cli/cli/blob/HEAD/docs/gh-vs-hub.md) to learn more.
