The command "gh api --silent ${endpoint}" is a command-line command that uses the GitHub CLI (Command Line Interface) to call the GitHub API and retrieve data from a specified endpoint.

Here's a breakdown of the command and its components:

• "gh": It is the command to invoke the GitHub CLI.
• "api": It is a subcommand of the GitHub CLI used to interact with the GitHub API.
• "--silent": It is an option or flag that can be used with the "api" subcommand to make the command output only the response body, omitting any other additional information or metadata.
• "${endpoint}": It is a placeholder for the specific endpoint of the GitHub API you want to call. You would replace it with the actual endpoint you wish to access.

So, essentially, by running this command with the appropriate endpoint, you can use the GitHub CLI to interact with the GitHub API and retrieve data from that endpoint while suppressing most of the command's output.
