FAQPage Schema
How do I automate the GitHub issue lifecycle from branching to merging?▼

Automating the GitHub issue lifecycle involves guided branching, TDD implementation, running check-all quality gates, drafting PRs, and merging with strict release gates. This ensures one issue is fully resolved before starting the next.

What is the ISSUES.LOCAL workflow for issue management?▼

The ISSUES.LOCAL workflow is a local issue management process using markdown files (ISSUES.LOCAL/LOCAL###-Title.md) to track issues. It supports the same end-to-end lifecycle as GitHub issues, including branching, testing, and merging.

How do I enforce quality gates before creating a pull request?▼

To enforce quality gates before creating a pull request, run the check-all command after implementing changes with TDD. This ensures all tests and quality checks pass before drafting your PR for review.

Can I use test-driven development with GitHub issue automation?▼

Yes, TDD-driven workflow is integrated into GitHub issue automation. It guides you to implement with test-driven development, run quality gates via check-all, and ensure one issue is completed before starting the next.

Does this issue management workflow support both GitHub and local issues?▼

Yes, this issue management workflow supports both GitHub issues and local ISSUES.LOCAL workflows. It applies end-to-end lifecycle management including branching, testing, PR creation, and merging to both formats.

What are the limitations of automating issue lifecycle management?▼

The issue lifecycle automation enforces strict release gates and TDD, requiring all quality gates (check-all) to pass before merging. It focuses on one issue at a time, which may limit parallel workflow flexibility.
