Can I use Markdown for Azure DevOps work item descriptions?

While Azure DevOps natively requires HTML for descriptions, this skill automatically converts your Markdown input into the required HTML format using built-in formatting tools.

Can I query work items using complex logic?

Yes, the skill supports both simplified pre-defined queries and full WIQL (Work Item Query Language) syntax for sophisticated filtering and data retrieval.

Does this skill handle Azure DevOps authentication?

Yes, it includes a dedicated authentication check tool that verifies Azure CLI installation, login status, and project configuration, with an auto-fix mode for common setup issues.

How do I create parent-child relationships between work items?

The skill provides two methods: a direct --parent-id flag during creation or a specialized link_parent tool to connect existing work items into hierarchies like Epic to Feature.
