Issue Tracking Skill

Work tracking via tissue, a git-native issue tracker.

When to Use

Creating new issues for bugs or features
Checking what's ready to work on
Updating issue status
Adding comments or context to issues
Managing dependencies between issues

Setup

Tissue stores issues in .tissue/ (git-tracked).

# Initialize (once per project)
tissue init

Core Operations

List issues

tissue list                    # All issues
tissue list --status open      # Open only
tissue list --tag bug          # By tag
tissue list --priority 1       # High priority

Show ready issues

tissue ready                   # No blockers, ready to work

Show issue details

tissue show <id>

Create issue

tissue new "title"
tissue new "title" -t bug              # With tag
tissue new "title" -p 1                # Priority 1 (highest)
tissue new "title" -t feature -p 2     # Both

Update status

tissue status <id> open
tissue status <id> in_progress
tissue status <id> closed

Add comment

tissue comment <id> -m "message"

Tags and Priority

Standard Tags

Tag	Purpose
`bug`	Something broken
`feature`	New functionality
`refactor`	Code improvement
`docs`	Documentation
`trivial`	Quick fix

Priority Levels

Priority	Meaning
1	Critical - do first
2	High - do soon
3	Medium - normal
4	Low - when time permits
5	Backlog - someday

Dependencies

# Add dependency (A blocks B)
tissue dep add <blocker-id> blocks <blocked-id>

# Remove dependency
tissue dep rm <blocker-id> blocks <blocked-id>

# Show what blocks an issue
tissue show <id>   # Lists blockers

Workflow Integration

Use tissue to track work items. When working on an issue:

Check tissue ready to see what's available
Start working: tissue status <id> in_progress
Add comments as you discover things
Close when done: tissue status <id> closed

Issue Naming

Issues get IDs like auth-a3f2. The prefix comes from the title:

"Fix auth bug" → auth-xxxx
"Add caching" → caching-xxxx

Examples

# Create a bug
tissue new "Login fails on Safari" -t bug -p 2

# Check ready work
tissue ready

# Start working
tissue status auth-a3f2 in_progress

# Add finding
tissue comment auth-a3f2 -m "Root cause: cookie SameSite attribute"

# Close it
tissue status auth-a3f2 closed

Querying

# High priority bugs
tissue list --tag bug --priority 1

# All open features
tissue list --tag feature --status open

# Everything assigned to current sprint
tissue list --tag sprint-42

Integration with jwz

Issue topics in jwz follow the pattern issue:<id>:

# Post to issue topic
jwz post "issue:auth-a3f2" -m "Starting work on this"

# Read issue discussion
jwz read "issue:auth-a3f2"

This connects tissue issues with agent discussions.
