FAQPage Schema
How do I automate GitHub issue resolution and pull request creation?

Automating GitHub issue resolution involves fetching triaged issues, implementing code changes in isolated git worktrees, and creating pull requests. This Skill autonomously selects the highest priority, smallest effort issue and prepares it for review.

How does git worktree integration work for automated issue implementation?

Git worktree integration creates isolated working directories for safe code changes during issue implementation. This allows the automation to modify code without affecting the main branch until the pull request is ready.

Do I need the GitHub CLI to automate issue claiming and PR generation?

Yes, you need the GitHub CLI installed to automate issue claiming and pull request generation. The Skill requires the `gh` CLI alongside Git worktree support to fetch issues, implement changes, and submit pull requests.

What is the best way to prioritize GitHub issues for automated development?

Prioritizing GitHub issues for automated development is handled by selecting the highest priority and smallest effort triaged issues based on predefined labels. The Skill evaluates these labels to choose the optimal issue to implement next.

Can I use this automation to clear a backlog of triaged bugs and feature requests?

Yes, you can use this automation to clear a backlog of triaged bugs and feature requests. It autonomously picks up issues, implements the fixes in isolated worktrees, and generates pull requests with conventional commits for review.

How to link conventional commits to GitHub issues in automated pull requests?

Linking conventional commits to GitHub issues in automated pull requests is managed by the Skill during PR creation. It automatically generates commits and links them to the original issue for seamless tracking.
