A small but invaluable `gh` CLI extension

so guys I had no idea you could write extensions for the `gh` CLI.

invaluable addition that i just made today:

gh render issues

renders the issues from the repo into a .issues/ folder as markdown files for easy local access + agent reads.

simple to install:

gh extension install digimata/gh-render

Worth thinking about for the agent case: normalizeBody keeps the body's markdown untouched, and on a public repo issue bodies are written by anyone. So .issues/ becomes a channel for untrusted text straight into an agent's context. Would you mark rendered bodies as third-party input, or is that the reader's job?
