What feature would you like to see?

Codex CLI is currently limited to generating code locally and does not have the ability to fetch live data from developer tools. One major gap is the lack of integration with GitHub Issues. This feature enable fetching issue context directly from GitHub, making it possible to reference, analyze, and respond to issues seamlessly in the same workflow.

Are you interested in implementing this feature?

Just tell it to use gh issue --help in AGENTS.md, it works.

This would be useful for providing Codex CLI docs hosted on the web

Thanks for the suggestion. I modified the title to more accurately represent the idea (at least as I understand it). If you think that I've failed to capture the idea, feel free to edit as you see fit.

This hasn't received any upvotes or additional posts in a couple of months, so I'm going to close it.
