| description | Gest Promote. Promote or sync durable Gest work with GitHub issues using gh, storing GitHub metadata back on Gest entities. |
GPR: Gest Promote
Use when work should become externally visible on GitHub.
Promotion Criteria
Promote durable user-visible, architecture-relevant, multi-session,
release-worthy, or externally trackable work. Do not promote every leaf task.
For every development depth-1 parent and every development iteration close, an
explicit gpr decision is required. Either create/sync the GitHub issue and
store metadata, or record why the work is staying local. Do not silently skip
GitHub issue integration for development work.
Workflow
- Read the Gest task/iteration/spec.
- Include tag classification context from
references/tag_dependency_workflow.md
when public-safe; semantic tags often make GitHub issues easier to search.
- Sanitize internal details: remove Gest IDs, implementation-only paths, and
private workflow notes.
- Draft a GitHub issue body focused on user story, context, acceptance
criteria, and out-of-scope.
- Ask the user before running
gh issue create or gh issue edit, unless the
user has already agreed to GitHub issue integration for this workflow scope.
- Store metadata after creation:
gest task meta set <id> github.issue <number>
gest task meta set <id> github.url <url>
gest task tag <id> github
Also attach metadata to the development iteration when applicable.
