SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill automates the end-to-end workflow of turning a GitHub issue into an open pull request, removing the manual steps of reading the issue, implementing a fix, writing a PR description, and running gh commands. Note that it is currently deprecated and disabled pending a bounded sub-agent contract and side-effect ledger.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Issue Fetching: Retrieves the referenced GitHub issue and gathers relevant repository context as the first pipeline step.
  • Delegated Fix Loop: Passes the issue to a sub-agent step that implements the code fix.
  • PR Drafting and Opening: Summarizes the patch into a PR description and opens the pull request via the gh CLI.
  • Use Case: A maintainer with a small, well-scoped bug report wants the agent to fetch the issue, produce a fix, and open a PR titled with the issue summary without manual intervention.

Quick Start

Ask the agent to take the linked GitHub issue, implement a fix with a sub-agent, and open a pull request with a generated description.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automatically turn a GitHub issue into a pull request?▼

This meta-skill chains four steps: fetch the issue with repo context, delegate the fix to a sub-agent, summarize the patch into a PR description, and open the PR via the gh CLI. It is currently deprecated and disabled by default.

Why is the issue-to-PR autopilot skill disabled?▼

It is deprecated pending a bounded sub-agent contract and side-effect ledger. The skill lacks risk metadata enforcement, per-step budgets, and a rollback path, so it must not be re-enabled without high-risk metadata and a saga-style compensation step.

What permissions does an issue-to-PR automation workflow need?▼

This workflow requires four capabilities: vcs for git operations, filesystem-write for applying the fix, network-write for pushing and opening the PR, and subprocess for running the gh CLI. It is classified as high risk.

What kinds of issues work best with automated PR creation?▼

Small, well-scoped issues with clear acceptance criteria work best. Ambiguous or large issues produce unreliable sub-agent fixes, and the skill provides a manual fallback using gh issue view and gh pr create.

What is the manual fallback if the autopilot fails?▼

Manually run gh issue view to read the issue, implement the code fix yourself, write the PR body, and then run gh pr create to open the pull request.
