interface InitPortfolioArgs { repository_name?: string; private?: boolean; description?: string; } - Core implementation logic for creating the GitHub portfolio repository. Handles consent validation, existence checks, API calls to GitHub, error handling with specific codes, and initializes repository structure with README.md and element directories. This is the primary execution logic called by init_portfolio.
