Can I filter the issue list?

Yes, you can filter by specific project areas by providing an argument, such as '/kata-check-issues api' to see only backend tasks.

Does it support legacy todo lists?

Yes, the skill includes an idempotent migration step that automatically moves old .planning/todos/ content into the new .planning/issues/ structure.

How does this skill handle GitHub integration?

If enabled in your config, it queries GitHub for open issues with the 'backlog' label, allowing you to view details or pull them into local files for development.

What is the difference between a local issue and a GitHub issue in the UI?

Local issues are stored in your .planning/ directory, while GitHub issues are marked with a [GH] indicator until you choose to pull them to local storage.

How does it help with execution?

Once an issue is selected, you can immediately route it to 'Quick Task' mode for rapid fixes or link it to a roadmap phase for more complex, planned development.

生产力与工作流

Manages and synchronizes project issues across local files and GitHub to streamline task selection and planning.

The Issue & Backlog Navigator is a core planning skill for Claude Code that provides a unified interface for task management. It allows developers to browse local markdown-based issues and remote GitHub tickets, offering powerful filtering by project area and automated migration from legacy todo formats. By bridging the gap between high-level roadmaps and active execution, this skill helps you decide what to work on next, pull GitHub context for offline use, and transition tasks directly into quick-fix or planned development modes.
