Create a GitHub repository via the API using a Personal Access Token (PAT), then push your local repo over SSH with the correct git@github.com:OWNER/REPO.git remote.

• Rust toolchain and Cargo installed (https://rustup.rs)
• Git installed with working SSH auth to GitHub (e.g. ssh -T git@github.com)
• GITHUB_TOKEN in your environment with repo scope

• From this checkout: cargo install --path .
• Can also install directly from GitHub:
  • SSH: cargo install --git ssh://git@github.com/tucker-weed/gh-repo-create-cli.git
  • HTTPS: cargo install --git https://github.com/tucker-weed/gh-repo-create-cli.git The binary will be placed in ~/.cargo/bin (ensure that directory is on your PATH).

export GITHUB_TOKEN=ghp_yourtokenhere

# Public repo in your user account

# Private repo
gh-repo-create-cli prompt-graph-tools --private

# Repo under an org
gh-repo-create-cli prompt-graph-tools --org my-org-name

1. Creates a folder named after the repo and writes README.md with a header.
2. Runs git init, stages files, and commits "Initial commit".
3. Calls the GitHub API with your PAT to create the repo (user or org) and reads the returned ssh_url.
4. Adds origin using that SSH URL, renames the branch to main, and pushes main over SSH.

If anything fails, the CLI exits with the GitHub error body or the failing git command.
