Matt PocockandClaude Opus 4.8 aa591116bf to-issues: split into Process + Reference tiers
Revert the description change and keep the wide-refactor material in
one place. Reshape the skill into a lean Process (steps) and a
Reference section holding the vertical-slice rules, the wide-refactor
expand–contract rules, and the issue body template as co-located
blocks the steps point to.

Split the to-issues skill into a lean Process and a Reference section, and teach it to handle a wide refactor — a single mechanical change (like renaming a column) whose blast radius fans across the whole codebase, breaking thousands of call sites at once so no vertical slice can land green. The drafting step now points at two co-located reference blocks: the Vertical slice rules for ordinary tracer bullets, and Wide refactors, which slices the change by expandcontract (expand the new form beside the old, migrate call sites in batches sized by blast radius, then contract the old form away) so CI stays green batch to batch — or, when it can't, only at a final integrate-and-verify issue. The issue body template moves into Reference too.
