solve-issue

name	solve-issue
description	Solve GitHub issues directly through implementation and $pr publication. Use `$solve-issue #<issue>` for one exact issue in the current task, or `$solve-issue <amount>` to dispatch that many independent issue-solving tasks in parallel.

Select

• $solve-issue #<positive-issue-number>: solve that issue in the current task; never create a worker or substitute another issue.
• $solve-issue <positive-amount>: select that many distinct eligible issues in ascending order and immediately create one sidebar-visible task per issue in parallel. If fewer qualify, dispatch all remaining eligible issues and report the shortage.
• $solve-issue: solve one eligible issue in the current task.

Eligible: open, with no open or draft PR covering it through a GitHub Development link or closing keyword. Ignore incidental mentions. Recheck once before dispatch.

Exact-target failure:

ISSUE_SKIPPED issue=<number> reason=<not_found|not_open>
ISSUE_SKIPPED issue=<number> reason=covered_by_pr pr=<url>

Dispatch

• Keep exact and default runs in the invoking task. For amount runs, use only the selected issue tasks; do not create separate developer, reviewer, or publication tasks.
• Give every issue an isolated worktree and branch named <type>/<short-kebab-description>, using the narrowest of fix, feat, docs, refactor, test, or chore. Never namespace it.
• Call set_thread_title once per task and never change it:
  • Exact/default task: Solve #<issue>
  • Amount orchestrator: Solve <amount> issues
  • Amount worker: #<issue>: <short-description>
• Give each amount worker the repository, issue + URL, base, branch, absolute worktree, and optional media path. The orchestrator only dispatches, waits, reports terminal results, and resumes existing workers without duplicating them.

Solve

Each issue-owning task completes the whole workflow:

1. Activate $ponytail at full intensity.
2. Implement the issue, run relevant checks, and commit the complete solution.
3. For UI changes, keep .codex-pr-media/ untracked through .git/info/exclude and capture matched, reproducible before/after media: video for interaction, motion, or multiple steps; images otherwise.
4. Require a clean worktree except ignored PR media, then run $pr.
5. If $pr finds actionable problems, fix and commit them, rerun checks, and invoke $pr again. Repeat in the same task until it publishes a draft PR.
6. Report the issue, published head, PR URL, and checks. Never merge or mark a PR ready.

On continuation, find and resume the existing issue-owning task, branch, worktree, and draft. Never create replacements for work that still exists.
