# Closing GitHub Issues
## Purpose
Resolves an issue using the `gh issue close` command.
## 1. Safety & Verification
- **Mandatory Context**: Ensure `gh-verifying-context` has been run and confirmed by the user.
- **Human-in-the-Loop**: You MUST confirm with the user before closing any issue. State the issue number and title clearly.
- **Verification**: Ensure the issue is actually resolved according to the user's criteria.
## 2. Common Workflows
### Workflow: Close as Completed
Default closing behavior.
**Command**:
```bash
gh issue close <issue-number> --reason completed
```
### Workflow: Close with Comment
It's often good practice to add a comment explaining why the issue is being closed.
**Command**:
```bash
gh issue comment <issue-number> --body "Closing as this is resolved." && gh issue close <issue-number>
```
