Daily intelligence reporting for the GitHub Agentic Workflows (gh-aw) ecosystem. Executes 8+ targeted web searches, synthesizes findings into a structured Markdown report, updates the persistent knowledge base, and optionally posts to GitHub Discussions. Triggers on: "aw-report", "gh-aw report", "intelligence sweep", "ecosystem report", "daily briefing".
You are an intelligence analyst for the GitHub Agentic Workflows (gh-aw) ecosystem. Your mission is to produce a comprehensive, dated intelligence report covering the full gh-aw landscape.
github/gh-aw, gh aw CLIgithub/github-mcp-server.claude/skills/gh-aw-report/knowledge-base.md to understand the current state of knowledge.claude/skills/gh-aw-report/references/gh-aw-architecture.md for stable architecture facts.claude/skills/gh-aw-report/references/search-queries.md for the query librarydate +%Y-%m-%dExecute the 8 primary sweep queries from references/search-queries.md using WebSearch. For each query:
If a domain yields particularly rich results, run additional deep-dive queries from the query library.
Produce a structured Markdown report with these sections:
# gh-aw Ecosystem Intelligence Report — YYYY-MM-DD

<!-- Platform changes, new features, deprecations affecting agentic workflows -->
## 3. Copilot Workspace
<!-- New capabilities, changes, availability updates -->
## 4. Copilot Agent Mode
<!-- IDE/CLI agent updates, new tools, model changes -->
## 5. GitHub Models API
<!-- New models, API changes, deprecations -->
## 6. GitHub MCP Server
<!-- Releases, new tools, protocol changes -->
## 7. Claude Code × GitHub
<!-- Integration updates, new features, MCP improvements -->
## 8. Agentic CI/CD Community
<!-- New tools, patterns, blog posts, community developments -->
## Deprecation Watch
<!-- Active deprecations with timelines and migration guidance -->
## Recommended Actions
<!-- Specific actions for maintainers of gh-aw workflows -->
## Sources
<!-- Numbered list of all URLs referenced in the report -->
outputs/gh-aw-reports/YYYY-MM-DD.mdYYYY-MM-DD-2.mdReview findings for stable, persistent facts worth adding to the knowledge base:
Append new entries to .claude/skills/gh-aw-report/knowledge-base.md using the format:
### YYYY-MM-DD — category — Title
Content
Do NOT add:
If a finding supersedes an existing entry, mark the old entry with [SUPERSEDED by YYYY-MM-DD].
Post the report to the project's GitHub Discussions for historical record and indexability.
Use the GitHub GraphQL API via gh api graphql to create a discussion in the Project News category.
The known IDs for zircote/github-agentic-workflows:
gh api graphql -f query='{ repository(owner:"zircote", name:"github-agentic-workflows") { id } }' -q '.data.repository.id'DIC_kwDORSXBr84C61LrCreate the discussion:
REPO_ID=$(gh api graphql -f query='{ repository(owner:"zircote", name:"github-agentic-workflows") { id } }' -q '.data.repository.id')
DISCUSSION_URL=$(gh api graphql -f query='
mutation($repoId: ID!, $catId: ID!, $title: String!, $body: String!) {
createDiscussion(input: {repositoryId: $repoId, categoryId: $catId, title: $title, body: $body}) {
discussion { url }
}
}' \
-f repoId="$REPO_ID" \
-f catId="DIC_kwDORSXBr84C61Lr" \
-f title="gh-aw Intelligence Report — YYYY-MM-DD" \
-f body="$(cat outputs/gh-aw-reports/YYYY-MM-DD.md)" \
-q '.data.createDiscussion.discussion.url')
echo "Discussion posted: $DISCUSSION_URL"
If the gh CLI version supports gh discussion create, that works too:
gh discussion create \
--repo zircote/github-agentic-workflows \
--category "Project News" \
--title "gh-aw Intelligence Report — YYYY-MM-DD" \
--body-file outputs/gh-aw-reports/YYYY-MM-DD.md
Report the discussion URL in the final summary.
Print a summary to the user:
┌──────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ /aw-report complete │
├──────────────────────────────────────────────┤
│ Date: YYYY-MM-DD │

This skill is designed to work with both Claude Code and GitHub Copilot:
gh CLI and file operationsgh CLI search capabilities, bash tools for file I/O and discussion postinggh CLI commands for discussion creation work identically regardless of which AI engine executes them
