Requirements Summary
Follow TDD principles, conventional commits, and protected branch workflows. Use proper labels, auto-closing keywords, and atomic commits. See references/requirements.md for complete standards.
Phase 1: Repository Analysis
Goal: Assess repository state, detect templates, and determine issue scope and type.
Actions:
- Analyze current branch from context (main/develop vs PR branch)
- Review open issues to identify duplicates or related work
- Check for contributing guidelines (
CONTRIBUTING.md) and follow its requirements - Detect issue templates in
.github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/directory - If templates exist: select appropriate template using
gh issue create --list - Determine issue type (epic, PR-scoped, or review) based on
$ARGUMENTScomplexity - Apply branch-based decision logic from
references/decision-logic.md
See references/repository-templates.md for template detection and compliance details.
Phase 2: Issue Creation
Goal: Create GitHub issue with proper structure, labels, and links.
Actions:
- Create or verify required priority labels exist (see
references/decision-logic.mdfor commands) - Draft issue following structure requirements in
references/issue-structure.md - Apply appropriate labels (priority, type)
- Add auto-closing keywords if PR-scoped issue (NOT for epics)
- Link to related issues or epics if applicable
Phase 3: Documentation and Handoff
Goal: Document decisions and communicate follow-up actions.
Actions:
- Document branch strategy decision and rationale
- Report created issue number and URL to user
- If on PR branch and blocking: add detailed comment to PR instead of creating issue
- Share next steps (create PR, assign to team member, etc.)
