description: 'Uses subagents for parallel execution with code review gates between
  batches. Use when addressing issues systematically, multiple related issues
  need fixing, tasks can be parallelized across subagents, quality gates needed between
  task batches. Do not use when single simple fix - just implement directly. DO NOT
  use when: issue needs clarification - comment first to clarify scope.'

# Fix Issue(s)

Retrieves issue content from the detected git platform (GitHub, GitLab, or Bitbucket) and uses subagent-driven-development to systematically address requirements, executing tasks in parallel where dependencies allow.

**Platform detection is automatic** via the `leyline:git-platform` SessionStart hook. Check session context for `git_platform:` to determine which CLI to use.

## Key Features

- **Cross-Platform**: Automatically detects GitHub/GitLab/Bitbucket and uses appropriate CLI
- **Flexible Input**: Single issue number, platform URL, or space-delimited list
- **Parallel Execution**: Independent tasks run concurrently via subagents
- **One PR**: All issues produce one consolidated PR (never per-issue PRs)
- **Quality Gates**: Code review between task groups
- **Fresh Context**: Each subagent starts with clean context for focused work

## Workflow Overview

| Phase | Description | Module |
|-------|-------------|--------|
| 1. Discovery | Parse input, fetch issues, extract requirements | [issue-discovery](modules/issue-discovery.md) |
| 2. Planning | Analyze dependencies, create task breakdown | [task-planning](modules/task-planning.md) |
| 3. Execution | Dispatch parallel subagents for independent tasks | [parallel-execution](modules/parallel-execution.md) |
| 4. Quality | Code review gates between task batches | [quality-gates](modules/quality-gates.md) |
| 5-6. Completion | Sequential tasks, final review, issue updates | [completion](modules/completion.md) |

## Required TodoWrite Items

1. `do-issue:discovery-complete`
2. `do-issue:tasks-planned`
3. `do-issue:parallel-batch-complete`
4. `do-issue:review-passed`
5. `do-issue:sequential-complete`
6. `do-issue:issues-updated`

## Forge CLI Commands

Use the platform detected in session context (`git_platform:`). See `Skill(leyline:git-platform)` for full mapping.

| Operation | GitHub (`gh`) | GitLab (`glab`) |
|-----------|---------------|-----------------|
| Fetch issue | `gh issue view <N> --json title,body,labels,comments` | `glab issue view <N>` |
| Comment | `gh issue comment <N> --body "msg"` | `glab issue note <N> --message "msg"` |
| Close | `gh issue close <N> --comment "reason"` | `glab issue close <N>` |
| Search | `gh issue list --search "query"` | `glab issue list --search "query"` |

**Verification:** Run the command with `--help` flag to verify availability.

## Agent Teams (Default Execution Mode)

Agent teams is the **default** parallel execution backend for do-issue. Teammates coordinate via filesystem-based messaging, enabling real-time communication when shared files or dependencies are discovered mid-implementation.

**Automatic downgrade**: For single issues with `--scope minor`, agent teams is skipped (Task tool or inline execution is used instead). Use `--no-agent-teams` to force Task tool dispatch for any invocation.

**Requires**: Claude Code 2.1.32+, tmux, `CLAUDE_CODE_EXPERIMENTAL_AGENT_TEAMS=1`. If prerequisites are missing, silently falls back to Task tool dispatch.

```yaml
# Agent teams configuration
fix_issue:
  agent_teams:
    enabled: true           # on by default; --no-agent-teams to disable
    max_teammates: 4        # limit concurrent workers
    model: sonnet           # teammate model (lead uses current model)
    auto_downgrade: true    # skip agent teams for --scope minor
```

See `modules/parallel-execution.md` for detailed agent teams patterns.

## Configuration

```yaml
fix_issue:
  parallel_execution: true
  max_parallel_subagents: 3
  review_between_batches: true
  auto_close_issues: false
  commit_per_task: true
```
**Verification:** Run the command with `--help` flag to verify availability.
