What it does, in the publisher's words

Help address review/issue comments on the open GitHub PR for the current branch using gh CLI; verify gh auth first and prompt the user to authenticate if not logged in.

The description field of the SKILL.md. The agent reads only this at startup and decides from it when to load the full skill.

Install GitHub: Address PR Comments

The skills CLI copies the skill into the folder of each agent you pick (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, OpenCode, Windsurf...). Add -g for all projects. Needs Node.js 22.20+. docs

npx skills add openai/skills --skill gh-address-comments

Copy the skill folder into ~/.claude/skills (all projects) or .claude/skills (this repo). Claude Code picks it up without a restart. docs

npx skills add openai/skills --skill gh-address-comments -a claude-code

# or by hand:
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/openai/skills.git /tmp/gh-address-comments-src
cp -r /tmp/gh-address-comments-src/skills/.curated/gh-address-comments ~/.claude/skills/gh-address-comments

Download the skill folder, zip it, then Customize > Skills > + > Create skill > Upload a skill. Code execution must be on (Settings > Capabilities). docs

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/openai/skills.git /tmp/gh-address-comments-src
cp -r /tmp/gh-address-comments-src/skills/.curated/gh-address-comments ./gh-address-comments
zip -r gh-address-comments.zip gh-address-comments

It's in OpenAI's own catalog: ask Codex for $skill-installer gh-address-comments, or use the skills CLI. docs

$skill-installer gh-address-comments

gh skill (GitHub CLI 2.90+, preview) installs it for Copilot in VS Code, the CLI and the cloud agent. Copilot also reads .github/skills and ~/.copilot/skills. docs

gh skill install openai/skills gh-address-comments

Cursor reads .cursor/skills, .agents/skills and ~/.cursor/skills (and .claude/skills). It does not install loose skills from a GitHub URL, so copy it in. docs

npx skills add openai/skills --skill gh-address-comments -a cursor

Installs from the GitHub repo; --path picks this skill out of the repo. Default scope is user (all projects). docs

gemini skills install https://github.com/openai/skills.git --path skills/.curated/gh-address-comments

OpenCode reads .opencode/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills and the Claude and .agents folders. docs

npx skills add openai/skills --skill gh-address-comments -a opencode

Windsurf (now Devin Desktop) reads .devin/skills, .windsurf/skills and ~/.codeium/windsurf/skills. docs

npx skills add openai/skills --skill gh-address-comments -a windsurf

Works with

Claude Code, Claude.ai and Claude Desktop, Codex, GitHub Copilot, Cursor, Gemini CLI, OpenCode, Windsurf and other agents that read the open Agent Skills format.

Bundles 1 Python script the agent can run, so it needs Python on the machine. In the Claude apps, code execution must be on.
