issue-size-estimation

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps developers accurately estimate the size and complexity of GitHub issues, ensuring they are appropriately sized for implementation and preventing the creation of overly large or unmanageable tasks.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Issue Decomposition: Provides clear criteria for when an issue needs to be broken down into smaller, more manageable tasks.
• Size Labeling: Recommends a system of size labels (size/xs to size/xl) based on estimated code lines.
• Estimation Guidance: Offers methods for estimating code lines based on issue labels, design documents, or keywords.
• Use Case: Before starting development, a developer can use this Skill's guidelines to determine if a new issue is too large and needs to be decomposed using /decompose-issue before proceeding with /implement-issues.

Quick Start
