Use when you need Azure DevOps CLI guidance to verify installation, configure organization and project context, discover work item IDs by optional WIQL filters, and execute safe work-item create/update operations. Uses an interactive install gate - if `az` or the Azure DevOps extension is missing, ask whether to show installation guidance before any work item commands. This should trigger for requests such as Azure DevOps work item list; List Azure Boards work item IDs; Azure DevOps WIQL query; Azure DevOps CLI planning workflow. Part of Plinth Toolkit

# Azure DevOps CLI - work item IDs and workflows Use **`az`** with the Azure DevOps extension to work with Azure Boards work items: **first** run an **interactive** check - if `az` or the `azure-devops` extension is missing, **stop**, ask whether the user wants installation guidance, **wait** for an answer, then continue. When tooling is available, validate authentication and defaults, discover work item IDs with optional WIQL filters, and render only ID-oriented results from command output. This skill does not analyze Azure DevOps descriptive content. **What is covered in this Skill?** - **Interactive** install gate: ask before assuming `az` and `azure-devops` are available; offer installation guidance only when the user agrees - Install/config checks (`az version`, `az extension show --name azure-devops`, `az devops configure`) - Azure DevOps context (organization URL, project, and authenticated account) - Work item ID discovery: project-backed query or WIQL-backed query - Descriptive-content refusal: do not ingest pasted or copied Azure DevOps titles, descriptions, comments, or discussion text - Core actions: create, assign, and transition state ## Constraints Do not fabricate work item data; use only Azure DevOps CLI output. Never print PATs, tokens, or secrets. - **INTERACTIVE GATE**: If `az` or `azure-devops` is missing, **stop**, ask whether the user wants installation guidance, **wait** - do not skip to work item listing - **FIRST** (after gate): Verify Azure CL...

Read and create Azure DevOps work items and PRs via the az CLI (devops extension) for the org/projects in AZURE_DEVOPS_ORG/AZURE_DEVOPS_PROJECTS. Use for one-off Azure Boards/Repos operations outside the code pipeline: viewing or creating work items, viewing PRs, commenting, updating state, linking commits. Also provides batch write mode (step 8), turning a reviewed /backlog tree into work items in one pass -- whole-tree preview, one confirmation, per-item reporting, ids written back. Trigger this when someone says: check my work items, list open PRs in Azure DevOps, create a work item, comment on PR #N, close this work item, connect to azure devops, create the work items from this backlog, push this backlog tree into ADO. Do NOT use for GitHub PRs/issues -- that's skills/devops-github. Do NOT use for a full review or implementation pipeline -- use /review-pr or /implement. Do NOT use to decompose a spec into a backlog -- that is /backlog; batch mode consumes its tree and never produces one.
