SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires gh, jq, base64, and includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Managing GitHub projects at scale is complex; this Skill standardizes labels, issue hierarchies, and PR workflows via MCP tools and gh CLI to streamline governance for Swaralipi projects.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Label taxonomy management (epic → feature → story → task / bug) with project field integration.
  • End-to-end issue hierarchy support (epic, feature, story, task, bug) with sub-issue linking.
  • PR workflow automation (branch naming, draft PR creation, merge strategies) and GraphQL for sub-issue creation.
  • GH CLI automation and can be extended to GitHub Actions for repo scaffolding and governance.
  • Use when creating or organizing Swaralipi repo issues, labels, and PRs.

Quick Start

Create an initial epic and a few linked stories using MCP and gh CLI to bootstrap your Swaralipi project workflow.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate GitHub project management and issue hierarchy creation with gh CLI?

You can automate GitHub project management by using gh CLI and MCP tools to structure epics, features, stories, and tasks, link sub-issues via GraphQL, and standardize PR workflows. This approach enforces project scope and returns structured JSON metadata.

Can I use MCP tools to link sub-issues and manage label taxonomy in GitHub projects?

Yes, MCP tools combined with gh CLI can manage label taxonomy and link sub-issues. They automate end-to-end issue hierarchy support, connecting features and stories while integrating directly with project fields.

What dependencies do I need to orchestrate GitHub projects with MCP and gh CLI?

To orchestrate GitHub projects with MCP and gh CLI, you need the gh command line tool, jq, and base64 installed. These dependencies enable issue structuring, GraphQL sub-issue creation, and PR workflow automation.

Does this GitHub project automation approach validate inputs and restrict operations to a specific repository?

Yes, this approach enforces project scope by operating only on the Roudranil/swaralipi-app project (#4). It validates inputs, handles errors during issue and PR creation, and returns structured JSON metadata to ensure governance.

What is the best way to standardize PR workflows and branch naming using gh CLI?

The best way to standardize PR workflows is using gh CLI automation to enforce branch naming conventions, create draft PRs, and apply merge strategies. This standardization streamlines repository governance and organizes issues.

Can gh CLI automation be extended to GitHub Actions for repository scaffolding?

Yes, gh CLI automation can be extended to GitHub Actions for repository scaffolding and governance. This allows you to automate label taxonomy, issue hierarchies, and PR workflows directly within your CI pipeline.
