How does Issue Creator handle task dependencies?

The skill analyzes the implementation plan to identify which tasks must be completed first, assigning 'order' numbers and dependency arrays to create a logical Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) for the workflow.

What is an Interface Contract in this context?

An Interface Contract is a specific section added to an issue that defines required methods, patterns, and integration points. This ensures that new components pass integration tests even if the developer only sees a subset of the codebase.

Can I customize the labels applied to issues?

Yes, the skill uses a standard set of labels like enhancement, bug, backend, and security, but these are derived from the content of your engineering spec.

What format does the skill output?

The skill returns structured JSON containing the feature ID, generation timestamp, and a detailed array of issues ready for programmatic import into GitHub or other task trackers.

Transforms engineering specifications into atomic, well-structured GitHub issues with dependencies and technical context.

About

Issue Creator is a specialized Claude Code skill designed to bridge the gap between architectural planning and active development. By analyzing engineering specifications, the skill decomposes complex requirements into independent, implementable tasks with defined implementation orders, size estimates, and dependencies. It features a unique 'Interface Contract' system that ensures new code remains compatible with existing project patterns, significantly reducing integration bugs in complex codebases like swarm-attack.
