SKILL.md

Key settings

  • .workbench/config.json: github.owner, github.repository, github.host, git.defaultBaseBranch.
  • Ensure gh auth login is complete before syncing issues.

Core workflows

  1. Import missing GitHub issues into local work items.
  2. Create missing GitHub issues for active work items.
  3. Create branches for active items.
  4. Sync doc backlinks and front matter.

Commands

Dry-run sync:

bash
workbench sync --dry-run

Sync a specific item and prefer GitHub content:

bash
workbench item sync --id WI-WB-0001 --prefer github

Bulk sync (local wins on conflicts):

bash
workbench sync --items

Import unlinked GitHub issues (slower):

bash
workbench sync --items --import-issues

Sync doc backlinks (include terminal items when needed):

bash
workbench doc sync --all
workbench doc sync --all --include-terminal-items

Output

  • New work items from GitHub issues.
  • New GitHub issues and branches for active work items.
  • Updated doc backlinks and front matter.

Guardrails

  • Use --dry-run before creating issues or branches.
  • workbench sync defaults to linked work items only; use --import-issues to pull unlinked GitHub issues.
  • Terminal items (complete/cancelled/superseded) do not create issues or branches by default.
  • Sync is not a replacement for specifications or architecture artifacts; create or update them during planning.
