About this skill
make-issue-spec
There isn't a lot more to this than what the top level description says. The idea is for this issue spec to contain a clear specification of what is needed. Make sure to ask the user any questions for parts that you're not sure of or are under specified. Stage this in Git if you have permissions.
When not to use it
- →Tasks that do not require structured task documentation
Limitations
- →Requires Git permissions to stage changes
How it compares
It enforces a standardized naming and formatting convention for issue specifications compared to manual documentation.
