Resolve all qualifying open GitHub issues. Each issue becomes exactly one merged PR. Do not stop until every issue is resolved or explicitly deferred.
Arguments
$ARGUMENTS - Optional: specific issue numbers (e.g. "42 55") or labels. If omitted, process all open issues.
Goal
Every qualifying open issue has a merged PR that resolves it. One issue = one PR. No bundling. No skipping.
Qualifying issues
Only process issues that meet ONE of:
- Created by
chaliy
- Has a comment from
chaliy approving it
Skip all others silently.
Per-issue outcomes
For each qualifying issue (ordered by issue number), achieve ALL of these before moving to the next:
1. Issue is understood and scoped
- Classify: bug, feat, test, chore, refactor, docs
- Identify affected areas: parser, interpreter, builtins, vfs, network, git, python, tool, eval, security
- Branch created from latest main:
fix/issue-{N}-{short-slug}
2. Failing test exists (bugs) or scaffold test exists (features)
- A test that demonstrates the bug or validates the feature exists in
crates/bashkit/tests/spec_cases/ or relevant module
- For bugs: test fails before the fix, passes after
3. Fix or feature is implemented
- Minimal, focused changes
- Positive and negative tests pass
- Security tests added if change touches parser, interpreter, VFS, network, git, or user input (per
knowledge/security/security-testing.md)
- Threat model updated if new attack surface (per
knowledge/security/threat-model.md)
4. Ship via /ship
Invoke the /ship skill to handle all remaining steps: spec updates, artifact updates, code simplification, security review, smoke testing, quality gates, PR creation, CI, and merge.
Pass context: Closes #N — <short description of the fix/feature>
Do NOT duplicate any /ship steps manually — let the skill handle the full pipeline.
After /ship completes and the PR is merged, return to main before next issue: git checkout main && git pull origin main
After all issues
Scan for #[ignore] tests that may now pass. Un-ignore any that are green. Single PR for all un-ignored tests.
Rules
- One issue = one PR. Non-negotiable. Never bundle multiple issues.
- Never close a half-done issue. If the PR only implements a subset of the issue's tasks, do NOT use
Closes #N or Fixes #N in the PR body. Instead use Partial #N or Part of #N and list what remains. Only use closing keywords when every task/checkbox in the issue is complete.
- If an issue is unclear or not reproducible, comment asking for clarification and skip to next.
- If a fix would be >500 lines, split into sub-issues and link them.
- Never skip the failing-test-first step for bugs.
- Always rebase on latest main between issues.
