Oh cool. This is exactly what I needed:
I was able to build this:
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(defun get-gh-item-title (uri &optional include-number?)
"Based on given github URI for (pull request or an issue),
returns its title"
(when (string-match "\\(github.com\\).*\\(issues\\|pull\\)" uri) ; either PR
or issue
(pcase-let* ((`(_ _ ,owner ,repo ,type ,number) (remove "" (split-string uri
"/")))
(gh-resource (format "/repos/%s/%s/%s/%s"
owner
repo
(if (string= type "pull") "pulls" type)
number))
(resp (ghub-get gh-resource nil :auth 'forge)))
(when resp
(format "%s%s" (alist-get 'title resp)
(when include-number? (format " #%s" number)))))))
(defun org-link-make-description-function* (link desc)
(cond ((string-match "\\(github.com\\).*\\(issues\\|pull\\)" link)
(get-gh-item-title link :with-number))
(t desc)))
(setq org-link-make-description-function 'org-link-make-description-function*)
#+end_src

Whenever I I use org-insert-link and it turns out to be a URI that
starts with "https://github.com"; I would like it to be processed
differently than any other link, one example - if it is a PR or a
Github Issue, I'd like it to fetch summary(title) of it and create a
link that looks like this:
[[https://github.com/user/repo/issues/3899][This issue needs to be fixed #3899]]
Do we have any "built-in" mechanism for doing something like this? Can
someone suggest how I can make it. Thank you!
You can set org-link-make-description-function to a function that
detects links of interest and generates a custom description.
