E11 - Template repo + issue-to-agent workflow drill

  • Create a new GitHub repository in your account and clone it locally with help from an AI agent.
  • Configure the workflow so the agent can commit locally and push to the remote repository.
  • Write multiple GitHub issues based on different chapters/aspects of the Genskow and Shapiro style guide.
  • Send your coding agent to solve issues step by step and to open pull requests for each solved issue.
  • Keep this repo as a reusable template for future programming/research projects (consider the "template" repository type).

Inputs

  • New GitHub repository
  • Issue templates tied to style-guide chapters
  • Agent handoff prompt and PR review checklist

Deliverable

new template repo + issue set + agent PR evidence across style-guide tasks.

Target

Create a new repo, set up agent commit/push flow, and run issue -> agent -> PR steps using style-guide issues.

Checklist

  • Make one explicit design decision.
  • Include one verification check.
  • State one limitation or risk.

Common failure modes

  • Agent permissions are not configured for push/PR workflow.
  • Issues are too broad to verify step by step.

Extension task (optional)

Promote the repository to a GitHub template and document a starter checklist for future projects.
