devops

name	devops
description	Use when unsure whether a request is a GitHub or Azure DevOps operation, or when someone says "devops help", "connect to devops", "check my work items or PRs", "devops?". Routes to devops-github or devops-azure based on intent. Also use as a fallback when a request doesn't clearly map to either one.

DevOps Help

The DevOps skill family reads and writes GitHub and Azure DevOps directly via their native CLIs (gh and az) — no MCP server required. Each sub-skill owns one platform, handles its own first-time setup and auth, and applies the same strict-targeting and preview-and-confirm discipline before any write.

The two skills

Skill	Use when
/devops-github	GitHub PRs and issues — repos configured in GITHUB_ORG/GITHUB_REPOS
/devops-azure	Azure DevOps work items and PRs — org/projects configured in AZURE_DEVOPS_ORG/AZURE_DEVOPS_PROJECTS

1. Identify intent

If the request doesn't already make it obvious, ask the user one question: "GitHub or Azure DevOps?"

Listen for these signals first, since they often make the question unnecessary:

• GitHub signals: "issue", "pull request", "PR #N", a repo name matching GITHUB_REPOS → /devops-github
• Azure DevOps signals: "work item", "board", "sprint", "bug/defect", a project name matching AZURE_DEVOPS_PROJECTS (e.g. "refac"), or the configured AZURE_DEVOPS_ORG → /devops-azure

If signals conflict or neither is present, ask directly rather than guessing.

2. Route and hand off

Once intent is clear, tell the user which skill handles it and invoke it. For example: "That's Azure DevOps — starting /devops-azure now."

Gotchas

• Do not attempt the operation yourself. This skill only identifies intent and routes. /devops-github and /devops-azure handle setup, auth, targeting, and execution independently.
• Env vars are each sub-skill's own concern. Don't check GITHUB_REPOS/AZURE_DEVOPS_PROJECTS here — route first, and let the target skill handle its own first-run setup if they're unset.
• "I want to do both" — route to whichever the user mentioned first, and note the other skill is available as a separate follow-up. Don't try to interleave both platforms in one pass.
