Executes the `unify-to-tickets` decision (personal-wiki #23), reworking this PR from "add /to-plan" into the full planning-skills unification. - Rename /to-prd → /to-spec. "spec" is now the single through-line term (the skill still opens with "you may know this document as a PRD" for discoverability). - Merge /to-plan + /to-issues into one /to-tickets skill; delete /to-issues. /to-tickets emits a set of tickets, each declaring its blocking edges — one medium-agnostic artifact that reads as a sequential plan (local `tickets.md`, edges as text) or a parallelizable DAG (real tracker, native blocking links). The edges live in the ticket either way; the medium only decides whether anything acts on them in parallel. - ask-matt now routes idea → /to-spec → /to-tickets → /implement. - Sweep every cross-reference (docs pages, chain diagrams, CONTEXT.md, ADRs, .agents, setup templates) to the new names and vocabulary. - Rewrite the changeset to describe the unification.

# Issue tracker integrations are limited to mainstream tools
|
|
|
|
`setup-matt-pocock-skills` only offers first-class support for **mainstream** issue trackers. Requests to add support for niche, new, or single-vendor experimental trackers are out of scope.
|
|
|
|
## Why this is out of scope
|
|
|
|
Every issue-tracker backend hard-codes a CLI shape into the skills (commands, flags, output parsing). Each new backend is permanent maintenance surface — it has to keep working as the tool's CLI evolves, and it has to keep being tested against `/to-spec`, `/to-tickets`, `/triage`, and friends. That cost is only worth paying for trackers a meaningful fraction of users actually have.
|
|
|
|
"Mainstream" is a judgment call, not a numeric bar:
|
|
|
|
- GitHub, GitLab, and Backlog.md are the kind of tools we'd consider mainstream — broadly known, widely used, well past the experimental phase.
|
|
- A brand-new agent-focused tool with a few hundred GitHub stars is not, no matter how interesting the design.
|
|
|
|
Stars, age, and download counts are useful signals when making the call but none of them is the rule. The rule is: would a typical engineer recognise this tool and have plausibly chosen it for their team?
|
|
|
|
The escape hatches for non-mainstream trackers already exist:
|
|
|
|
- `local markdown` for lightweight in-repo tracking.
|
|
- `other/custom` for users who want to wire something up themselves.
|
|
|
|
Neither requires the core skills to know about the specific tool.
