git-labelmaker

Edit GitHub labels.

Source

The tool provides a command‑line interface for managing GitHub issue and pull‑request labels directly from a local repository. After installing globally with npm or yarn, users run the command inside a repo, authenticate with a personal access token (which the tool stores securely behind a user‑chosen password), and then add, remove, or list labels through interactive prompts. Labels can be created individually by specifying text and a hex color, or bulk‑added from a JSON file that defines a label package. The same JSON format can be exported from an existing repository to reuse a label set elsewhere.

It is aimed at developers who prefer terminal workflows and need to keep label schemes consistent across projects. The utility relies on the underlying `git-label` library for API interactions and supports only the public GitHub API, so it is not suited for GitHub Enterprise without custom modifications.

The project is stable, written for Node ≥ 4.0.0, and distributed under the MIT license. Development has been archived, and the README recommends newer alternatives for automated labeling.
