SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Manually creating GitHub issues from a spec-kit tasks.md file is repetitive and error-prone, and re-running the process can create duplicate issues. This Skill automates the conversion while checking existing issues to prevent duplicates. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Automated Issue Creation: Parses tasks.md, strips checkbox and marker prefixes, and creates GitHub issues titled T001: <description> via the GitHub MCP server. - Deduplication: Fetches existing issues with cursor-based pagination and matches task IDs using the pattern \bT\d{3}\b, skipping tasks that already have issues. - Safety Guards: Verifies the git remote is a GitHub URL before creating anything and supports pre/post extension hooks from .specify/extensions.yml. - Use Case: After generating an implementation plan with spec-kit, run this Skill to publish every task as a trackable GitHub issue in the correct repository without manual copy-pasting. ## Quick Start Ask the agent to convert the current feature's tasks.md into GitHub issues for this repository.

Frequently Asked Questions about speckit-taskstoissues

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

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

Run the taskstoissues command in a spec-kit project. It parses tasks.md, strips checkbox markers, and creates one GitHub issue per task with the title format `T001: <description>` using the GitHub MCP server.

How does the skill avoid creating duplicate GitHub issues?▼

It fetches existing open and closed issues with perPage 100 and cursor pagination, matching titles against the pattern `\bT\d{3}\b`. Any task ID already covered by an issue is skipped and reported.

Can I use this with a non-GitHub git remote?▼

No. The skill reads `git config --get remote.origin.url` and only proceeds if the remote is a GitHub URL. It never creates issues in repositories that do not match the remote.

What project structure is required for taskstoissues?▼

The project must follow the spec-kit structure with a .specify directory, including the check-prerequisites.ps1 script and a tasks.md file for the current feature. An optional constitution.md is loaded for governance constraints.

Why are some tasks skipped when creating issues?▼

Tasks are skipped when their ID already appears in an existing issue title, which prevents duplicates on re-runs. The skill reports each skip, for example `T001 already has an issue, skipping`.
