# gh-attach
`gh attach` uploads a file to GitHub's internal user-attachments endpoint (no public API exists) and prints the URL, which GitHub auto-renders (image/video/file) wherever it's pasted. The URL inherits the repo's visibility, so private-repo uploads stay private.
## Prerequisites
```sh
gh extension list | grep -q 'gh attach' || gh extension install sudosubin/gh-attach
```
Uploads use a GitHub browser session cookie, not the `gh` token. By default, `gh` must be authenticated so `gh-attach` can select the matching browser account. If the wrong account is selected, add `--browser <name> --profile <name>`. For headless use, set `GH_ATTACH_SESSION_TOKEN` to the bare `user_session` cookie value. Treat it as a full account credential.
