SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill streamlines the end-to-end workflow of finding GitHub issues, fixing them automatically via sub-agents, and opening pull requests while also handling follow-up review comments.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Fetch & filter issues via REST API: Pulls issues (optionally filtered by label, milestone, assignee, and state) while excluding PRs masquerading in the issues endpoint.
  • Parallelized auto-fixing with orchestration: Spawns multiple sub-agents to implement focused fixes on per-issue branches and open PRs without using the gh CLI.
  • Fork-safe PR workflow: Optionally pushes branches to a fork and opens PRs targeting the upstream repository.
  • Review-comment remediation: Monitors open fix/issue-* PRs and spawns targeted review-fix agents for actionable feedback.
  • Collision avoidance & reliability controls: Skips issues when PRs or branches already exist and uses token-guarded claim tracking to prevent duplicate work across cron/watch cycles.
  • Optional Telegram summary: Sends only the final PR links summary to a provided channel ID.

Quick Start

Run gh-issues for your repository and only issues labeled bug by executing: /gh-issues owner/repo --label bug --limit 5 --yes

FAQPage Schema
How do I automatically fix GitHub issues and open pull requests?

Automated GitHub issue fixing is handled by fetching issues via the REST API and spawning parallel sub-agents to implement code fixes on branches, then opening pull requests. It filters issues by label, milestone, or assignee and manages PR creation without needing the gh CLI.

Does this GitHub issue auto-fix tool work with forked repositories?

Yes, forked repository workflows are fully supported. The tool optionally pushes fix branches to your fork and opens pull requests targeting the upstream repository using GitHub REST API authentication.

How do I handle automated follow-up on GitHub pull request review comments?

Automated review-comment remediation monitors open fix PRs and spawns targeted sub-agents to implement fixes for actionable feedback. It tracks pull requests matching the fix pattern and applies changes based on reviewer comments.

Do I need the GitHub CLI installed to automate issue triage and PR creation?

No, the GitHub CLI is not required. The tool relies on curl-based REST API calls authenticated with a valid GH_TOKEN, bypassing the need for gh CLI installation while supporting concurrency controls and preflight git checks.

How can I prevent duplicate PRs when running automated issue fixing on a schedule?

Duplicate processing is prevented using token-guarded claim tracking and collision avoidance logic. The system skips issues when branches or pull requests already exist, ensuring safe execution across cron or watch cycles.
