# FAQ
##### "Invalid value reference" in Chat Agent mode
I fixed this by toggling the `chat.agent.enabled` setting in [VS Code](/notes/vscode) settings.
## Search all of an org's code for a string
```shell
gh search code 'SEARCH_STRING' --owner ORG_NAME
```
## Create issue using CLI
```bash
gh issue create --repo OWNER/REPO
```

Running it without pre-filling `--title` and `--body` will launch the interactive prompts for title, body, labels, assignees, etc.
## What is the base branch the current PR is targeting?
```shell
gh pr view --json baseRefName --jq '.baseRefName'
```
