Does it automatically create pull requests?

Yes, once the implementation plan is executed, the skill handles branch creation, commits the changes, and opens a formatted pull request.

How does the skill handle security and untrusted content?

It implements strict safety guidelines that treat all issue content as untrusted, preferring local repository searches and ensuring secrets are never included in external queries.

Which issue tracking platforms are supported?

This skill natively supports GitHub and includes built-in logic to load specific sub-skills for Linear and GitLab integration.

What tools does this skill require?

The skill utilizes Bash tools for GitHub (gh) and Git (git) commands, as well as the GitHub MCP server for direct API interactions.

Collaboration Tools

Automates the complete lifecycle of solving software issues by fetching context, planning changes, and submitting pull requests for GitHub, Linear, and GitLab.

About

This skill streamlines the development workflow by allowing Claude to autonomously handle issue resolution from start to finish. When provided with a tracker URL, the skill fetches relevant metadata, applies strict security guidelines for handling untrusted content, and creates a detailed technical implementation plan. It then executes the code changes, manages branch creation, and handles the commit process, ultimately opening a pull request to resolve the issue with minimal developer intervention.
