FAQPage Schema
How do I convert spec-kit tasks into GitHub issues?

The Skill automates converting spec-kit tasks into GitHub issues by parsing tasks from the .specify directory, sorting them by dependencies, and validating the Git remote URL before creating issues in the matching repository.

How does dependency sorting work for GitHub issues extracted from spec-kit?

Dependency sorting organizes extracted spec-kit tasks into a sequential order based on their relationships, ensuring that prerequisite tasks are generated as GitHub issues in the correct sequence for project management.

Do I need a specific repository setup to generate GitHub issues from spec-kit?

Yes, you need a spec-kit structured repository containing a .specify directory and a validated GitHub remote URL to ensure the parsed tasks are created as issues in the correct repository without mismatches.

Can I use this Skill to automate sprint planning from design artifacts?

Yes, you can automate sprint planning by using this Skill to extract design tasks from the .specify directory and automatically transform them into dependency-sorted GitHub issues for team tracking.

Why does issue creation fail when running scripts on my spec-kit project?

Issue creation fails when the Git remote URL validation detects a non-GitHub repository mismatch, or if prerequisite scripts for JSON parsing encounter incorrect absolute paths or improperly quoted complex task names.
