SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Converts existing tasks into actionable, dependency-ordered GitHub issues based on available design artifacts.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Converts tasks into linked GitHub issues ordered by dependency to streamline feature development.
  • Respects a spec-kit project structure with a .specify/ directory for consistent tooling.
  • Generates the necessary issue outline and supports pre/post-execution extension hooks to adapt behavior.

Quick Start

Run the speckit taskstoissues workflow to generate ordered GitHub issues from your design artifacts.

FAQPage Schema
How do I convert design artifacts into ordered GitHub issues for feature development?

To convert design artifacts into ordered GitHub issues, this Skill maps existing tasks from a spec-kit project structure into an actionable, dependency-ordered issue outline. It uses the available design artifacts to establish prioritization and streamline the feature development workflow via the GitHub MCP server.

Does converting tasks to GitHub issues require a specific project structure?

Yes, converting tasks to GitHub issues requires a spec-kit project layout containing a .specify/ directory. This directory is necessary to map the tasks to issues, apply pre- and post-execution extension hooks from .specify/extensions.yml, and generate the output outline.

How are GitHub issues prioritized when generated from design artifacts?

GitHub issues are prioritized by establishing a dependency order based on your available design artifacts. The workflow maps the existing tasks within the spec-kit structure to ensure proper execution sequence and streamlined feature development tracking.

Can I use extension hooks to customize task-to-issue generation behavior?

Yes, you can use pre- and post-execution extension hooks defined in .specify/extensions.yml to adapt the task-to-issue generation behavior. This allows you to customize the workflow within the spec-kit project structure before outputting the final issue outline.

What is the best way to automate dependency-ordered issue creation from a spec-kit layout?

The best way to automate dependency-ordered issue creation from a spec-kit layout is to run the task-to-issue workflow. It processes your design artifacts, applies the configured extension hooks, and outputs an outline that directly guides issue creation through the GitHub MCP server.
