SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Enables end-to-end automation of issue-driven software delivery, orchestrating discovery, specification, coding, review, merging, and verification through a deterministic, script-driven workflow.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • End-to-end workflow orchestration: manage XS to XL routes with size-aware routing, including patch, pr, and batch modes.
  • Phase-based automation: execute spec, code, review, merge, and verify phases in sequence with automated preconditions, execution, and post-checks.
  • Auto-resolution & recovery: detects anomalies, applies recoveries, and supports multi-tier failure handling with optional auto retrospective.

Quick Start

Start the workflow by providing an issue number to /auto and optional flags to customize routing.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate issue-driven development workflows on GitHub end-to-end?

Automate issue-driven development by driving discovery, specification, coding, review, merging, and verification through scripted phases. Provide an issue number to start the workflow, which routes work based on size and executes phases sequentially with automated checks.

What is size-aware routing for GitHub issue automation?

Size-aware routing categorizes GitHub issues from XS to XL, directing them through patch, pr, or batch backlog routes. It matches the issue scale to the appropriate execution path, ensuring automated spec execution and review guardrails fit the workload.

Can I automate code review and merging phases using Claude Code?

Yes, you can automate code review and merging phases by executing them in sequence through script-driven workflows. The process includes automated preconditions, execution, post-checks, and label transitions to enforce guardrails.

How do GitHub workflow orchestration scripts handle automation failures and recovery?

Workflow orchestration scripts handle failures by detecting anomalies, applying recoveries, and supporting multi-tier failure handling. They provide recoverable failure modes and optional auto retrospectives to diagnose and resolve issues autonomously.

Does issue-driven automation support batch backlog processing?

Yes, issue-driven automation supports batch backlog processing alongside patch and pr routes. It manages large workloads by routing issues through size-aware paths and executing automated specifications across the batch.

What are the limitations of script-driven workflow orchestration for code review?

Script-driven workflow orchestration requires configurable scripts, label transitions, and cross-cutting checks to enforce guardrails. It is limited to software teams using GitHub issues for work intake and depends on deterministic, script-based phase execution.
