This is a reference guide for building agents that need to search GitHub intelligently. It maps user intents like "show me PRs awaiting my review" to the actual GitHub query patterns, handles date ranges and scope narrowing, and explains how to run multiple searches in parallel without serializing everything. The cross-repo intelligence section is the standout bit: it teaches agents to spot when issues reference PRs in other repos, flag merged work that hasn't shipped yet, and group related items across repositories. It also includes auto-recovery logic so you don't just return empty results when a narrow search fails. Use this when you're building workflow automation that needs to be smarter than a basic API wrapper.
