ive-got-issues

This is a command-line tool for dealing with GitHub issues. This is intended to make sorting through issues in large repos faster and easier.

It can automatically label or comment all issues in a specified repo that match the criteria input via the flags. These have a dry-run mode and the option to open a browser tab for each matching issue for users who prefer to double-check matching issues before commenting/labelling.

It can list all issues in a specified repo that match the criteria input via the flags. This also has the option to list issues with --linked-prs (pull requests that have referenced the issues), which can help identify stale issues that are ready to close. list can also optionally open issues and linked prs in browser tabs.

ive-got-issues is still a work in progress with more flags and commands to come in future!
