How are task categories determined?

Categories are set based on the commit verb: 'Added' for additions, 'Removed' for deletions, and 'Changed' for fixes, updates, or refactors.

What fields can this skill update in a ticket?

This skill specifically manages the 'effort', 'commit_hash', and 'category' fields within a file's YAML frontmatter.

What effort formats are supported?

The skill requires numeric hour values such as 0.1h, 0.25h, 0.5h, 1h, 2h, or 4h; t-shirt sizes and minute-based inputs are not allowed.

Can I use this skill manually within Claude?

No, this skill is configured with 'user-invocable: false', meaning it is intended to be called by other scripts or automated archive processes.

What happens if the metadata fields are missing?

The skill automatically inserts missing fields in a logical order: effort after layer, commit_hash after effort, and category after commit_hash.
