tackle-issue

Solid

Start-of-work triage in this monorepo. Trigger on: a GitHub issue number ("tackle issue 99", "work on #42", bare #N), pasted proposal/spec text ("investigate this", "pressure-test this", "scope this"), or picker phrasing ("tackle the next issue", "what should I work on"). Read-only investigation that tries to falsify the premise, then recommends SHIP / SHIP WITH CAVEAT / DEFER / SKIP. On SHIP verdicts for a real issue number it offers branch checkout + task seeding; --investigate-only suppresses that handoff. Not for PR review or work already in progress.

Skill Content

# Tackle Issue Triage first, then optionally set up the work. Read-only until the operator picks "go" at the end. Implementation, commit, and PR happen outside this skill. ## Mindset An issue or proposal is a hypothesis, not a spec. Most issues here are filed by AI agents (hermit-scribe): intent is usually right, framing often is not (stale paths, first-idea fix, oversized scope, premise already fixed, or no bug at all). Falsify the premise before planning anything. If it survives, judge separately whether the change is worth its cost. Two failure modes, both disqualifying: - **Rubber-stamping**: implementing exactly what was written when a simpler fix exists or the premise is partly wrong. - **Reflex-pushback**: manufactured objections. If the premise holds and ROI is good, say "ship as written" plainly. **Proportionality**: scale investigation to blast radius. A one-file doc fix needs falsification steps 1 and 3 only, and a two-line trade-off note. Anything touching hooks, shipped skills, or release machinery gets the full pass, including a live probe when a harness-behavior claim is load-bearing. ## Dispatch - **Issue number** ("tackle issue 99", "#42", "owner/repo#N"): `gh issue view <N> --repo <owner/repo from input, default gtapps/claude-code-hermit> --json title,body,labels,comments,author,state,url` Read the comments: they often say "already fixed" or change scope, and they override the body. Pull referenced issues/PRs when the body leans on them. Cl...

issue-to-pr

Triage the GitHub issues on this repo (cccost-dashboard), judge which are real bugs or worth-building features, then implement the one you pick — TDD, green CI, branch, PR. Use when the user says "check the issues", "triage the issues", "what's in the backlog", "anything worth fixing", "implement issue 12", "fix #12", "work on that issue", or pastes an issue URL. Also use when the user asks whether a reported issue is real, reproducible, or in scope.

issue

Use when starting a chain from a GitHub issue — turning an issue URL or number into a triaged, planned, dispatched, and reviewed pull request. Classifies the thread (bug → root-cause discipline, feature → plan chain, question → drafted reply), synthesizes a spec from the issue's own acceptance criteria, then runs the standard chain with a PR exit. Trigger with /hyperflow:issue, "work on issue #N", "fix this issue <url>", "implement this issue", "triage issue #N and raise a PR".

ship-issue-gh

GitHub · GitHub-Issues sibling of /abc:ship-issue. Drives a GitHub issue (or list, or parent with task-list children) from `pending` to `merged` through the implement → PR → address-review → merge loop. Emulates Linear's state machine on top of GitHub Issues using the label conventions documented in scaffold-sub-issues-gh/github-conventions.md. TRIGGER when the user says "/ship-issue-gh <owner>/<repo>#<n>", asks to ship/land/drive a GitHub issue, or wants Claude to take a GitHub-tracked ticket through review to merge. Also trigger when resuming work on a GitHub issue with an open PR and pending reviewer comments. Self-arms its own `/loop` — the user invokes once and walks away.
