What problem does it solve?

This Skill automates the transformation of open GitHub issues into concrete implementation plans by selecting the most relevant issue, analyzing the repository, and generating a detailed Pending plan that documents steps, required skills, and context for execution.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Issue discovery and prioritization: Discovers open issues, excludes AIIGNORE/FUTUREWORK, prioritizes maint over feat, and selects a single action item.
  • Plan generation: Analyzes the codebase and issue details to produce a structured implementation plan saved under .claude/workplans/Pending/.
  • Automation of workflow state: Commits the plan on the current branch and marks the issue as not_planned to close it from active tracking.
  • Fallback strategies: Uses GitHub MCP tools when available and gracefully falls back to gh CLI when MCP is unavailable.

Quick Start

Invoke the skill to identify an open maint or feat issue, generate a detailed implementation plan, and place it in .claude/workplans/Pending/<slug>.md.
