What it does

This skill automates grouping backlog items into a GitHub milestone. It reads local backlog files, shows current issue status, offers to create missing issues for P0/P1 items, assigns chosen items to the specified milestone, and updates project status entries (Projects V2) to Backlog. It integrates with repository tooling (Python scripts) to create issues and set milestones.

When to use it

Use when preparing a release, sprint, or milestone: after creating a milestone run this to populate it with prioritized items, ensure high-priority items have issues, and keep project metadata in sync. Works in development-harness workflows where backlog items are tracked as per-item files.

What's included

Scripts: No direct scripts detected inside the skill folder, but the workflow references Python scripts (github_project_setup.py) in the repo that handle issue creation and milestone assignment.
References: No references folder inside the skill directory.
Instructions: Step-by-step workflow: resolve milestone, load backlog items, present selection to user, create missing issues for P0/P1, assign existing issues to the milestone, update Project V2 status, and report results. Error handling for missing milestones and failures is documented.
