Manage sub-issues, types, and dependencies from GitHub CLI
GitHub announced that GitHub CLI now includes commands to manage sub-issues, issue types, and dependencies. Users can create, list, and update sub-issues, assign types to issues, and add or remove dependencies between issues using the `gh` command-line tool. This integration enables developers to handle complex issue hierarchies and relationships directly from the terminal, reducing context switching between the CLI and web interface. The feature is part of GitHub's ongoing effort to enhance project management capabilities within the CLI, allowing for more efficient automation and scripting of issue workflows. No specific version numbers or release dates were provided beyond the changelog publication date of June 10, 2026.
Developers can now automate complex issue management tasks directly from the command line.
