Can it help with build-vs-buy decisions?

Absolutely. The planning phase includes a mandatory research step to evaluate existing libraries and solutions before recommending a custom implementation.

What happens if a CI check fails during the workflow?

The skill enters a CI + review loop, monitoring PR checks and automatically attempting to fix issues and re-push until the implementation is ready to merge.

How does this skill handle implementation plans?

It posts plans directly to GitHub issue comments using the gh CLI to ensure team visibility and prevent local file loss, making the plan the single source of truth.

Does it support Test-Driven Development (TDD)?

Yes, the execution phase mandates writing tests alongside implementation and includes a strict 'Iron Law' verification gate that requires fresh evidence of passing tests.

How does it manage follow-up tasks or deferred work?

It applies a specific threshold to decide if deferred work should be handled inline or if a new follow-up issue should be automatically created via the issue-writer tool.

生产力与工作流

Automates the end-to-end process of planning, researching, and executing GitHub issues with structured verification and documentation.

This skill provides a rigorous, standardized framework for handling software development tasks within Claude Code. It moves beyond simple code generation by enforcing a multi-stage workflow that includes mandatory requirements analysis, build-vs-buy research, and codebase exploration before implementation begins. By integrating directly with the GitHub CLI, it ensures all plans and progress are documented on the issue itself for maximum team visibility. The skill also enforces strict verification gates and a CI/CD review loop, minimizing regressions and ensuring implementations align perfectly with specifications.
