Automatically discover likely dependency relationships between backlog issues and suggest/block links to establish correct work order.
Link Deps scans issue text and backlog lists to find candidate dependency relationships (what blocks what) and produces actionable recommendations to link issues as blockers/blocked. It provides search-and-verify commands and patterns to identify foundation work, feature work, and circular dependencies, plus concrete commands to update issue trackers.
Use this skill when your backlog is large or unstructured and you need to: identify prerequisite work, break cycles, prioritize foundation tasks, or prepare a sprint with clear work order. Run it during backlog grooming, pre-planning sessions, or after large refactors/migrations.
--blocked-by, and verify the dependency graph).This is best used in agents that can run or suggest CLI commands and parse issue-tracker outputs (e.g., agents integrated with developer tooling or CLIs like Linear).
