To drill down into the details of a single run, you can use gh run view, optionally going into as much detail as the individual steps of a job. Combining gh run watch with, on Ubuntu, a command like notify-send means more time to wander off from your keyboard and do something like pet a cat or gaze at a plant. We’ve made it easier to stay on top of in-progress workflow runs with gh run watch, which you can use to either follow along as a workflow run executes or combine with other tools to alert you when runs are finished. With the new gh run list, you receive an overview of all types of workflow runs whether they were triggered via a push, pull request, webhook, or manual event. It’s possible to get quick insight into what might be failing for an open pull request with gh pr checks, but this doesn’t help with understanding workflow runs across an entire repository.

Getting insight into workflow runsĭespite our best efforts to write code that is good and true, builds sometimes fail. Now, you can get insight into workflow runs and files from the comfort of your own local terminal with two new top-level commands: gh run and gh workflow. It’s already possible to make great things using gh from within GitHub Actions as Mislav shared in his recent blog post. As of 1.9.0, even more of GitHub is available in your terminal: GitHub Actions.

Gh brings GitHub to the command line by helping developers manage pull requests, issues, gists, and much more.
