GH-EXTENSION(1) GitHub CLI manual GH-EXTENSION(1) NAME gh-extension - Manage gh extensions SYNOPSIS gh extension [flags] DESCRIPTION GitHub CLI extensions are repositories that provide additional gh commands. The name of the extension repository must start with gh- and it must con- tain an executable of the same name. All arguments passed to the gh <extname> invocation will be forwarded to the gh-<extname> executable of the extension. An extension cannot override any of the core gh commands. If an extension name conflicts with a core gh command, you can use gh extension exec <extname>. When an extension is executed, gh will check for new versions once every 24 hours and display an upgrade notice. See gh help environment for informa- tion on disabling extension notices. For the list of available extensions, see <https://github.com/topics/gh-ex- tension>.
