Skill Details

SKILL.md

Convert existing tasks into actionable, dependency-ordered GitHub issues for the feature based on available design artifacts.

Overview

# Spec Kit Tasks-to-Issues Skill

When to Use

You want to convert tasks.md into GitHub issues in the same repository.

Inputs

specs//tasks.md
The repository's Git remote URL
Any user-provided issue labeling or grouping preferences

If tasks are missing, ask the user to run speckit-tasks first.

Workflow

Run .specify/scripts/bash/check-prerequisites.sh --json --require-tasks --include-tasks from repo root and parse FEATURE_DIR and AVAILABLE_DOCS list. All paths must be absolute. For single quotes in args like "I'm Groot", use escape syntax: e.g 'I'\''m Groot' (or double-quote if possible: "I'm Groot").
From the executed script, extract the path to tasks.
Get the Git remote by running:

```bash

git config --get remote.origin.url

```

> [!CAUTION]

> ONLY PROCEED TO NEXT STEPS IF THE REMOTE IS A GITHUB URL

For each task in the list, create a new issue in the repository that matches the Git remote.

- Prefer a GitHub issue-writing tool if available (e.g., MCP server or gh issue create).

- Keep titles concise and include the task ID in the issue body for traceability.

> [!CAUTION]

> UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES EVER CREATE ISSUES IN REPOSITORIES THAT DO NOT MATCH THE REMOTE URL

Outputs

GitHub issues created from tasks.md (one per task), in the repository matching the Git remote
