Can it handle repositories with thousands of issues?

The skill currently caps audits at 100 issues per run to ensure accuracy and performance. For larger backlogs, you can filter by labels or milestones.

What are the prerequisites for using this skill?

You must have the GitHub CLI (gh) installed and be authenticated using 'gh auth login' for the skill to access your repository data.

How does it detect if a feature is already implemented?

It uses Grep and Glob tools to search the local codebase for patterns, function names, and file paths mentioned in the issue description to find matches.

Does this skill close my issues automatically?

No, the skill generates a detailed report first and requires interactive approval before taking any action like closing issues or editing metadata.

コラボレーションツール

Audits and cleans up GitHub issue backlogs by identifying stale tasks, orphaned blockers, and implemented features through codebase-aware analysis.

The GitHub Issue Auditor & Cleanup skill automates the tedious process of maintaining a project's issue backlog. By cross-referencing open issues with current codebase state and GitHub metadata, it identifies 'drift' where issues reference deleted files or features that have already been implemented. It categorizes findings into actionable groups like 'Close Candidates' and 'Needs Triage,' allowing developers to perform bulk or individual remediations—such as closing stale tasks, pinging inactive assignees, or updating labels—directly through the Claude Code interface.
