What problem does it solve?
This Skill automates management of GitHub App installation tokens in Claude Code sessions to prevent auth failures from expired tokens, simplify initial setup, and enable shared access for agent teams.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Automatic Token Generation & Refresh: Generates JWTs from a PEM private key, exchanges them for one-hour installation tokens, and refreshes tokens when nearing expiry.
- Session Integration & Hooks: Provides a SessionStart hook to initialize credentials and a debounced PreToolUse hook to synchronously or asynchronously check and refresh tokens with retry/backoff logic.
- Secure Local Storage & Team Sharing: Writes tokens to a secured file with proper permissions, supports file-based locking to avoid race conditions, and allows multiple agents to read the same token file for coordinated access.
Quick Start
Source the plugin environment and ask the assistant to refresh or check the GitHub App installation token for the current session.
