Does this skill modify my main branch?

No, it validates that you are on the main branch and then creates a separate, isolated feature branch to ensure all work-in-progress is safely contained.

What are the core prerequisites for using Issue Executor?

Users must have the GitHub (gh) CLI, jq, and Gemini CLI tools installed and authenticated, and the Git working directory must be clean before starting.

How does the skill identify which specifications to include?

The script parses the GitHub issue body for references to Markdown files within the docs/specs/ or docs/changes/ directories and automatically includes them in the AI prompt.

What AI model does this skill use for planning?

This skill utilizes the Gemini CLI to synthesize provided project context, issue details, and retrospective data into a step-by-step implementation plan.

Developer Tools

Automates the transition from GitHub issues to implementation by generating context-aware plans and isolated feature branches.

About

The Issue Executor skill streamlines the developer workflow by synthesizing requirements, specifications, and project retrospectives into an actionable implementation plan. By leveraging the Gemini CLI to process all relevant context, it ensures developers start with a clear roadmap before a single line of code is written. It automatically handles branch creation and ensures a clean, spec-driven environment, significantly reducing the cognitive load required to context-switch between tasks and maintaining high standards for code quality and consistency.

Key Features

Automatic retrieval of GitHub issue details and acceptance criteria
Context-aware implementation plan generation via Gemini AI integration
Automated feature branch creation with standardized naming conventions
9 GitHub stars
Pre-flight environment validation for Git status and required dependencies
Synthesis of project specifications and historical retrospectives

Use Cases

Creating a structured coding roadmap for complex feature implementations
Initiating a new development task directly from a GitHub issue
Maintaining repository hygiene by automating isolated branch creation for every task
