Hi @corani! 👋 I understand your use case, but note that config params meant to be cross-cutting/common tweaks among
ghcommands.I believe, in your case, it's better to use
ghaliases. For example you can definepr-checkswith this:gh alias set prc 'pr checks --watch --interval 30'
And then use it as
gh prc. Does this help with your use case?Reacted by Kynan WareAs a workaround, yes (thanks for the suggestion!). But I think the interval is a cross-cutting concern that could apply to all commands that allow setting an interval, as I'd suspect they'd all be subjected to rate-limiting.
No worries! 🍻
As for interval, it's not a common option within
ghcommands with only two instances. Also, it's more about polling practices, and user experience. Definitely it helps avoiding rate-limit issues, but that a fortunate byproduct.Reacted by Daniel BosThis issue has been automatically marked as stale because it has not had any activity in the last 30 days,

Describe the feature or problem you’d like to solve
With the default interval of 10 seconds I regularly get secondary rate limit errors when using e.g.
gh pr checks --watch. I can change the interval by providing a--interval 30parameter, but having to provide that each time is annoying.Proposed solution
Add an option to the config file to specify the default interval value.
