SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Manually translating a feature's task list into GitHub issues is repetitive and error-prone, especially when tasks must stay dependency-ordered and tied to the correct repository remote. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Automated Issue Creation: Reads the tasks file produced by spec-kit and creates one GitHub issue per task using the GitHub MCP server. - Remote Safety Checks: Verifies the git remote is a GitHub URL and refuses to create issues in repositories that do not match the remote. - Extension Hooks: Supports optional and mandatory pre/post hooks declared in .specify/extensions.yml for customizable workflow steps. - Use Case: After generating a tasks breakdown for a new feature with spec-kit, run this Skill to publish every task as a properly ordered issue in the matching GitHub repository. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to convert the current feature's tasks into GitHub issues for this repository.

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I convert spec-kit tasks into GitHub issues?▼

Run the taskstoissues command in a spec-kit project. It executes check-prerequisites.ps1 to locate the tasks file, verifies the git remote is a GitHub URL, then creates one issue per task through the GitHub MCP server.

How do I automate GitHub issue creation from a task list?▼

Use the GitHub MCP server to programmatically create issues from a structured tasks file. This Skill reads the spec-kit tasks document and creates dependency-ordered issues in the repository matching your git remote.

Does this work with non-GitHub git remotes?▼

No. The Skill explicitly checks the output of git config remote.origin.url and stops if the remote is not a GitHub URL. It will never create issues in repositories that do not match the configured remote.

What project structure is required for taskstoissues?▼

A spec-kit project with a .specify directory is required, including the scripts/powershell/check-prerequisites.ps1 script and a generated tasks file. An optional .specify/memory/constitution.md and extensions.yml are also supported.

What are extension hooks in spec-kit commands?▼

Extension hooks are entries in .specify/extensions.yml under hooks.before_taskstoissues or hooks.after_taskstoissues. Enabled hooks run as slash commands before or after conversion, with optional hooks prompting the user and mandatory hooks executing automatically.
