Frequently Asked Questions about github-sync

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate syncing SDLC artifacts with GitHub issues and milestones?▼

You can automate SDLC artifact syncing by running scripts that read a YAML task breakdown from your repository and use the GitHub CLI to create labels, milestones, and issues. This maps formal SDLC stages directly to GitHub constructs for automated sprint planning and progress tracking.

How does GitHub milestone synchronization work for sprint planning?▼

Milestone synchronization maps your formal sprints to GitHub milestones, maintaining sprint cadence by automatically assigning issues to the correct milestone based on a YAML task breakdown. This ensures your GitHub milestones always reflect your current SDLC progress.

Do I need the GitHub CLI and Python to manage GitHub labels and issues?▼

Yes, you need both the GitHub CLI (gh) and a Python environment installed. The Skill relies on these dependencies to execute its scripts, which read your YAML task breakdown and perform automated label, milestone, and issue operations across your repositories.

Can I automatically categorize GitHub issues using SDLC phase and complexity labels?▼

Yes, the Skill applies structured SDLC labels such as phase, complexity, and type to categorize your work. It reads your YAML task breakdown and automatically assigns these labels to newly created or updated GitHub issues, reducing manual governance errors.

What is the best way to keep GitHub issues aligned with formal SDLC stages?▼

The best way to keep issues aligned with SDLC stages is to automate synchronization using a YAML task breakdown. The Skill applies mappings between SDLC concepts and GitHub constructs, automatically creating and updating issues with the correct labels and milestone assignments.
