What it does

gh-issues automates the workflow of discovering GitHub issues, validating them, and spawning focused sub-agents that implement code fixes and open pull requests. It also monitors PR review comments and can spawn review-fix agents to address requested changes. The orchestrator uses curl + the GitHub REST API (no gh CLI) and handles fork mode, claim tracking, cursors for cron runs, and watch mode.

When to use it

Use this skill when you want to automate triage and fix work for actionable issues in a repository: bulk-fixing small/clear bugs, keeping up with review feedback, or running in cron/watch mode to continuously process incoming issues. Avoid using it for ambiguous, large-scope issues that require human design decisions.
