SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires gh, git, jq, and includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This skill removes the manual overhead of managing software development tasks by autonomously navigating the entire lifecycle of a GitHub issue from initial claim to pull request submission.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Autonomous Checkpoint Chain: Automatically handles branch creation, implementation, linting, unit testing, and e2e verification without human intervention.
  • Resume-Capable Workflow: Uses idempotent steps and local state tracking to recover from crashes, token limits, or interruptions seamlessly.
  • Use Case: A developer can assign an issue to the agent, which will then independently branch, code, test, and open a PR, only pausing to ask for clarification via issue comments when requirements are ambiguous.

Quick Start

Invoke the work-issue skill for issue number 123 to begin the autonomous development process.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate GitHub issue resolution end-to-end?

To automate GitHub issue resolution, this skill manages git worktrees, implements code, runs CI/CD verification pipelines, and opens a pull request autonomously. It advances tasks through defined checkpoints including linting and testing.

Can I use GitHub CLI to autonomously branch and create pull requests?

Yes, GitHub CLI integration is required to autonomously manage branch creation and pull request submissions. The workflow operates within software development environments to advance tasks through defined quality checkpoints.

Do I need git and jq to run automated code review workflows?

Yes, you need git, gh, and jq installed to run automated code review workflows. These dependencies allow the skill to manage git worktrees, interact with GitHub issues, and process JSON data during CI/CD verification pipelines.

What happens if an autonomous development workflow is interrupted by token limits?

If an autonomous development workflow is interrupted by token limits or crashes, it resumes seamlessly using idempotent steps and local state tracking. This resume-capable workflow ensures tasks recover without losing prior progress.

How does automated issue tracking handle ambiguous requirements during development?

Automated issue tracking handles ambiguous requirements by pausing the development process to ask for clarification via issue comments. The agent independently branches and tests until it encounters unclear task requirements.

What's the best way to run e2e tests before submitting a pull request?

The best way to run e2e tests before a pull request is using an autonomous checkpoint chain that handles e2e verification after linting and unit testing. This ensures code quality and deployment readiness before PR creation.
