plan-to-issues
Convert a plan, PRD, spec, or roadmap document into tracked GitHub issues with a dependency graph: parses the plan into atomic work items (each independently shippable, one day or less, with acceptance criteria), detects dependency cycles before creating anything, then uses the gh CLI to create a milestone, type and priority labels, and issues whose bodies carry context, acceptance criteria, likely-touched files, and depends-on links created in topological order so references resolve. Verifies the created set and emits a plan-item to issue-URL mapping table. Use when the user says: turn this plan into issues, create GitHub issues from this PRD, break this spec into tickets, file issues for this roadmap, to-issues, convert plan to tasks, issue-ify this, populate the milestone.

What does the plan-to-issues skill do?
Convert a plan, PRD, spec, or roadmap document into tracked GitHub issues with a dependency graph: parses the plan into atomic work items (each independently shippable, one day or less, with acceptance criteria), detects dependency cycles before creating anything, then uses the gh CLI to create a milestone, type and priority labels, and issues whose bodies carry context, acceptance criteria, likely-touched files, and depends-on links created in topological order so references resolve. Verifies the created set and emits a plan-item to issue-URL mapping table. Use when the user says: turn this plan into issues, create GitHub issues from this PRD, break this spec into tickets, file issues for this roadmap, to-issues, convert plan to tasks, issue-ify this, populate the milestone. It's a reusable SKILL.md instruction set that loads into your AI coding assistant on demand, no prompt engineering, no copy-pasting every session.
How do I install the plan-to-issues skill?
Run `npx @skills-hub-ai/cli install plan-to-issues` from your terminal. The CLI writes the SKILL.md to the correct location for your AI tool (e.g. ~/.claude/skills/plan-to-issues/ for Claude Code or ~/.cursor/skills/ for Cursor with --target cursor) and adds it to your project's .skills.json lockfile.

Yes. Every skill on skills-hub.ai is free and open-source. There are no premium tiers, paywalls, or usage limits. You only pay for whatever AI assistant you're already using.
How do I use plan-to-issues after installing it?
In Claude Code, type `/plan-to-issues` (or whatever slash command the skill registers) and the AI follows the skill's instructions immediately. You can also reference it by name in natural language, your AI loads the skill into context when relevant.
Can I share the plan-to-issues skill with my team?
Yes. Commit your project's .skills.json lockfile and teammates run `npx @skills-hub-ai/cli install` (no args) to install every skill at the exact version you pinned. Organization-scoped installs work via skills-hub.ai organizations.
