Detect Git Remote URL

Detect the Git remote URL for integration with GitHub services (e.g., issue creation).

Prerequisites

• Check if Git is available by running git rev-parse --is-inside-work-tree 2>/dev/null
• If Git is not available, output a warning and return empty:

  [specify] Warning: Git repository not detected; cannot determine remote URL

Execution

Run the following command to get the remote URL:

git config --get remote.origin.url

Output

Parse the remote URL and determine:

1. Repository owner: Extract from the URL (e.g., github from https://github.com/github/spec-kit.git)
2. Repository name: Extract from the URL (e.g., spec-kit from https://github.com/github/spec-kit.git)
3. Is GitHub: Whether the remote points to a GitHub repository

Supported URL formats:

• HTTPS: https://github.com/<owner>/<repo>.git
• SSH: git@github.com:<owner>/<repo>.git

[!CAUTION]

ONLY report a GitHub repository if the remote URL actually points to github.com.

Do NOT assume the remote is GitHub if the URL format doesn't match.

Graceful Degradation

If Git is not installed, the directory is not a Git repository, or no remote is configured:

• Return an empty result
• Do NOT error — other workflows should continue without Git remote information
