# GitHub Activity Reporter
This skill reports your GitHub activity for a specific day using the `gh` CLI.
## Usage
Run the script with an optional date argument (defaults to today):
```bash
# Get today's activity
bash gh-activity.sh
# Get activity for a specific date
bash gh-activity.sh 2025-12-15
```
The date format must be `YYYY-MM-DD`.
## Requirements
- `gh` (GitHub CLI) - must be authenticated with your GitHub account
- `jq` - for JSON processing
## What It Reports
**Commits**: Lists all commits you made with their actual commit messages, grouped by repository and branch.
**Issues**: Shows all issues you created, commented on, or interacted with, including issue titles and the type of interaction.
**Activity Timeline**: A chronological view of all your GitHub events for the day (pushes, PRs, issue comments, etc.).
## How It Works
1. Verifies you're authenticated with GitHub CLI
2. Fetches your events using `gh api /users/{username}/events`
3. Filters events to the specified date
4. For each push event, fetches actual commits using `gh api /repos/{repo}/compare/{before}...{head}`
5. Extracts and displays issue information from issue events
6. Formats everything into a clear, organized report
