gh-extension: List installed extensions.
$ gh extension list
try on your machine

The command "gh extension list" is used to list all the installed extensions in the GitHub CLI (Command Line Interface) tool.

Here's what each part of the command means:

"gh" refers to the executable command for the GitHub CLI. It is the main command that allows you to interface with GitHub from the command line.

"extension" is a subcommand under "gh". It is used specifically for managing extensions in the GitHub CLI.

"list" is an argument provided to the "extension" subcommand. It instructs the CLI to list the installed extensions.

When you run this command, the GitHub CLI will display a list of all the installed extensions along with their names, versions, and descriptions. This can be useful to check which extensions are currently installed and available for use.

This explanation was created by an AI. In most cases those are correct. But please always be careful and never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
