Write complete, ready-to-pull work items for an issue tracker: bugs, tasks, stories, spikes, and epics, each with the fields, attachments, and done test its type requires. Use this skill whenever the user wants to write a ticket, create a Jira issue, Linear issue, or GitHub issue, file a bug report, write a user story or acceptance criteria, scope a spike, open an epic, or break work into tasks. Triggers on write a ticket, create an issue, file a bug, bug report, user story, spike, epic, task breakdown, turn this into tickets, break this down, acceptance criteria, definition of ready, ready for dev, backlog item, capitalization stage.

How to improve
- Your own cases (evals/evals.json, 4–6 real requests with expected answers): the full check would then run those instead of a model-drafted suite.

Process rating: all ten parameters 83/100
- 0Progress reporting. Says nothing while it works
- 30Running it twice. 2 mutating operations with no state check
- 50Failures and branches. 0 branches, has a failure section
- 70When it triggers. States when to use, but not when not to
- 70Inputs and preconditions. Inputs and preconditions are listed

Everything here is measured from the skill text rather than judged by a model, so the numbers are checkable. A parameter weighs more when it is a more common reason for the process to stall.
