At a glance

Read-only context for issues, pull requests, and backlogs. An agent skill from vercel-labs/issue-graph.

  • Trace related work
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md
  • Check PR counts
  • Prioritize follow-ups

What it does

Issue Graph is an agent skill from vercel-labs/issue-graph, published by the product's own GitHub organization. Read-only context for issues, pull requests, and backlogs. Use to trace related work, check PR counts, prioritize follow-ups, filter saved captures, open exact dashboard views, replay triage queries, or compare snapshots.

Its SKILL.md is about 280 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Development, covering Pull requests and Literature review. It works with GitHub. The repository describes itself as: Find related issues, competing changes, and unresolved follow-ups before you start work. The licence is Apache-2.0.

When your agent uses it

  • Trace related work
  • Check PR counts
  • Prioritize follow-ups
  • Filter saved captures

Example prompts

  • “/issue-graph”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 2080cf8. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are bash).

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Issue Graph loads about 275 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 58 tokens; SKILL.md has 102 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~58
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~275

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

issue-graph

Before running operational commands, load and read the guidance bundled with the CLI:

bash
issue-graph skills get core

Follow the returned core guidance. When detailed workflows or references are needed, load and read them through the CLI:

bash
issue-graph skills get core --full

Discover available guidance with issue-graph skills list. Inspect command syntax with issue-graph skills --help, issue-graph skills list --help, or issue-graph skills get --help.

If the executable, skills command, core, or referenced assets are unavailable, stop and report the CLI/skill mismatch and the observed error. Do not fabricate operational guidance, fall back to remembered instructions, or automatically install or upgrade anything. Ask for an explicitly authorized setup correction before proceeding.
