SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill automates tracking and enforcing sequential dependencies between GitHub issues. It prevents work from starting on blocked tasks before their prerequisites are met, streamlining project flow and reducing wasted effort.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Blocking Relationships: Create explicit "blocked-by" and "blocks" relationships between issues, ensuring tasks are completed in the correct order.
  • Dependency Visualization: List all dependencies for an issue, showing what it's waiting on and what it's holding up, providing clear project visibility.
  • Use Case: Ensure that "Phase 3: Implementation" (issue #92) cannot proceed until "Phase 2: Design" (issue #91) is completed by marking #92 as blocked by #91.

Quick Start

Mark issue #92 as blocked by issue #91 in the current GitHub repository.
