Is this agent skill safe to install?

Gen Agent Trust Hubpass
The skill provides workflows for managing GitHub pull requests and branches using the git and gh command-line tools. While generally safe, it presents a low risk of indirect prompt injection if untrusted pull request metadata, such as titles or branch names, is incorporated into shell commands without sanitization.

What does this agent skill do?

GitHub Patterns

Tools

Use gh CLI for all GitHub operations. Prefer CLI over GitHub MCP servers for lower context usage.

Quick Commands

# Create a PR from the current branch
gh pr create --title "feat: add feature" --body "Description"

# Squash-merge a PR
gh pr merge <PR_NUMBER> --squash --title "feat: add feature (#<PR_NUMBER>)"

# View PR status and checks
gh pr status
gh pr checks <PR_NUMBER>

Stacked PR Workflow Summary

When merging a chain of stacked PRs (each targeting the previous branch):

Merge the first PR into main via squash merge
For each subsequent PR: rebase onto main, update base to main, then squash merge
On conflicts: stop and ask the user to resolve manually

# Rebase next PR's branch onto main, excluding already-merged commits
git rebase --onto origin/main <old-base-branch> <next-branch>
git push --force-with-lease origin <next-branch>
gh pr edit <N> --base main
gh pr merge <N> --squash --title "<PR title> (#N)"

See stacked-pr-workflow.md for full step-by-step details.
