What problem does it solve? Starting work on a GitHub issue often requires manually gathering issue details, spec files, and past learnings before writing any code. This Skill automates that setup by synthesizing all relevant context into a step-by-step implementation plan and creating an isolated feature branch. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Context Synthesis: Fetches issue details, referenced spec files from docs/specs or docs/changes, and the project RETROSPECTIVE.md, then uses the Gemini CLI to produce an actionable implementation plan. - Automated Branch Creation: Generates a conventional branch name (e.g., feat/45-restructure-doc-indexer) and checks it out after validating a clean git state on main. - Workflow Guidance: The references/work-on-issue.md file documents a full 15-step workflow covering issue prioritization, dependency checks, spec validation, and TODO.md/sprint file updates. - Use Case: A developer starting a sprint task runs the skill with an issue number, receives a Gemini-generated plan grounded in specs and retrospective learnings, and lands on a ready-to-code feature branch. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to start work on issue number 45 to generate an implementation plan and create a feature branch.
