How does this skill handle multiple issues at once?

It utilizes 'git worktree' to create separate, isolated directories for each issue, allowing Claude to work on multiple branches simultaneously without affecting your main working directory.

Do I need any external tools to use this skill?

Yes, you need the GitHub CLI (gh) installed and authenticated, as well as git, to allow the worker to interact with your repository and pull request data.

Can I monitor the progress of the autonomous worker?

Yes, you can use the 'karkinos watch' command in a separate terminal to view real-time logs and the status of active Claude workers.

Does it automatically merge code into my main branch?

The skill can be configured to enable auto-merge on the created PR, which will trigger a squash merge once your repository's CI/CD checks have successfully passed.

What is the GitHub Issue Worker skill?

It is a specialized Claude Code capability that automates the process of fetching a GitHub issue, writing the necessary code fixes, and submitting a pull request autonomously.

协作工具

Automates the end-to-end resolution of GitHub issues by spawning autonomous AI workers in isolated git worktrees.

关于

The Issue Worker skill streamlines the development lifecycle by delegating GitHub issue resolution to autonomous Claude workers. By utilizing git worktrees, the skill enables parallel task execution in isolated environments, ensuring that background tasks do not interfere with your primary workspace. It manages the entire process—from fetching issue metadata and creating feature branches to implementing code, running tests, pushing changes, and opening pull requests with automated merge options. This is a powerful tool for maintaining repositories, clearing bug backlogs, and scaling development throughput without manual context switching.
