GitHub CLI 2.91.0

GitHub CLI now collects pseudoanonymous telemetry

To better understand how features are used in practice, especially as agentic adoption grows, GitHub CLI now sends pseudoanonymous telemetry.

See Telemetry for more details on what's collected, why, and how to opt out.

Support more agents in gh skill

Thanks to community feedback, gh now supports a large number of agent hosts. Run gh skill install --help for the list of available agents.

Improve skill discovery

gh skill install now adds the --allow-hidden-dirs flag to support discovering skills in hidden (dot-prefixed) directories such as .claude/skills/, .agents/skills/, and .github/skills/.

Detect skills re-published from other sources

GitHut CLI now detects if the skill to be installed is re-published from an upstream source and offers the option to install it from there. The --upstream flag is also added for non-interactive use cases.
