## Overview This skill empowers Claude to streamline the research-to-implementation workflow. By integrating web search with GitHub issue creation, Claude can efficiently convert research findings into trackable tasks for development teams. ## How It Works 1. **Web Search**: Claude utilizes its web search capabilities to gather information on the specified topic. 2. **Information Extraction**: The plugin extracts relevant details, key findings, and supporting evidence from the search results. 3. **GitHub Issue Creation**: A new GitHub issue is created with a clear title, a summary of the research, key recommendations, and links to the original sources. ## When to Use This Skill This skill activates when you need to: - Investigate a technical topic and create an implementation ticket. - Track security vulnerabilities and generate a security issue with remediation steps. - Research competitor features and create a feature request ticket. ## Examples ### Example 1: Researching Security Best Practices User request: "research Docker security best practices and create a ticket in myorg/backend" The skill will: 1. Search the web for Docker security best practices. 2. Extract key recommendations, security vulnerabilities, and mitigation strategies. 3. Create a GitHub issue in the specified repository with a summary of the findings, a checklist of best practices, and links to relevant resources. ### Example 2: Investigating API Rate Limiting User request: "find articles about API rate limiting, create issue with label performance" The skill will: 1. Search the web for articles and documentation on API rate limiting. 2. Extract different rate limiting techniques, their pros and cons, and implementation examples. 3. Create a GitHub issue with the "performance" label, summarizing the findings and providing links to the source articles. ## Best Practices - **Specify Repository**: When creating issues for a specific project, explicitly mention the repository name to ensure the issue is created in the correct location. - **Use Labels**: Add relevant labels to the issue to categorize it appropriately and facilitate issue tracking. - **Provide Context**: Include sufficient context in your request to guide the web search and ensure the generated issue contains the most relevant information. ## Integration This skill seamlessly integrates with Claude's web search Skill and requires authentication with a GitHub account. It can be used in conjunction with other skills to further automate development workflows.
