Load all open issues from the current GitHub repository and save them as markdown files in the `./specs/issues/` directory. Follow these steps: 1. Use the gh CLI to list all open issues in the current repository: - Run `gh issue list --limit 100` to get all open issues 2. For each open issue, fetch detailed information: - Run `gh issue view <number> --json number,title,body,state,createdAt,updatedAt,author,labels,assignees,url` - Extract all relevant metadata 3. Create the issues directory: - Run `mkdir -p ./specs/issues` to ensure the directory exists 4. Save each issue as a separate markdown file: - File naming pattern: `<number-padded-to-3-digits>-<kebab-case-title>.md` - Example: `007-make-code-review-trigger-on-sql-sh-changes.md` 5. Use the following markdown template for each issue file: ```markdown # Issue #<number>: <title> **Status:** <state> **Created:** <createdAt> **Updated:** <updatedAt> **Author:** <author.name> (@<author.login>) **URL:** <url> ## Description <body> ## Labels <labels or "None"> ## Assignees <assignees or "None"> ``` 6. After all issues are saved, provide a summary of: - Total number of issues loaded - List of created files with their issue numbers and titles IMPORTANT: Execute all steps in the correct order and ensure all issue data is properly formatted in the markdown files.
