Repo

Create repositories using Ralph's three-tier git model:

GitHub remote repository
Bare repo at /mnt/store/git/<org>/<repo>
Local working clone

This Ikigai skill references the real script in the sibling ralph-pipeline checkout.

Script Location

Use:

From ikigai repo root: ../ralph-pipeline/scripts/repo-create
From this skill directory (share/skills/repo): ../../../../ralph-pipeline/scripts/repo-create

Usage

bash

../ralph-pipeline/scripts/repo-create --org ORG --repo REPO [--private] [--local-path PATH]

Flags

Flag	Required	Default	Description
`--org`	yes	—	GitHub organization
`--repo`	yes	—	Repository name
`--private`	no	public	Create a private GitHub repo
`--local-path`	no	`~/projects/<repo>`	Local clone path

Output

json

{"ok": true, "org": "foo", "repo": "bar", "github": "foo/bar", "bare": "/mnt/store/git/foo/bar", "local": "/home/user/projects/bar"}

Examples

bash

../ralph-pipeline/scripts/repo-create --org mgreenly --repo my-app
../ralph-pipeline/scripts/repo-create --org mgreenly --repo my-app --private
../ralph-pipeline/scripts/repo-create --org mgreenly --repo my-app --local-path ~/work/my-app

Pre-flight Expectations

The script validates before making changes, including:

gh authentication
bare repo path does not already exist
local path does not already exist
/mnt/store/git is writable

Error Handling

On failure, inspect the JSON output. It may include a completed array showing which steps already succeeded. Do not assume automatic rollback.
