What problem does it solve?

This skill helps users understand GitHub issues, define precise acceptance criteria, and ensure that commits reference the relevant issues, reducing miscommunication and scope creep.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Read issue bodies and all comments to capture full context.
  • Check related issues and linked PRs to avoid duplication and misalignment.
  • Define clear acceptance criteria before implementing changes.
  • Guide commit practices that reference issue numbers (e.g., "Closes #123") to ensure traceability.
  • Provide a structured workflow for triaging, planning, and delivering features via GitHub issues.

Quick Start

Read the full issue description and comments, then document acceptance criteria and outline your commit plan with proper issue references.
